Welcome to my Blog!

Stress free, fun, happy, colorful, casual are all things that describe a session with me.

I have always loved art and enjoyed creating things. It makes me happy . . . puts a skip in my step. My interest in photography started in high school, but really expanded once I had children. I now have 3 little ones of my own (that's us on the left), and I feel compelled to document their unique characteristics and personality traits with the camera. I like to capture moments, looks, glances, smiles, belly laughs, the beauty within them . . . everything about them I want to remember. My goal is to capture real moments and interactions. It is no different when I am at a session. I want to capture all of these things for you too.

People have described me as creative and passionate. I put both of these qualities to work in every session. I want you to love your images as much as I do. 

I also enjoy getting to know people and listening to their stories. That's why photography is such a good match for me. It brings my creative passion together with my love for people. I look forward to meeting you and hearing your story as I document your unique characteristics with my camera.

we’ve had snow . . .

And then the sun actually came out for a couple days!  I dragged the kids outside in some of their best clothes so I could take pictures.  We were out for about 20 minutes and I faved 51 images.  That’s a lot!  I was trying out my new 50mm 1.4 lens.  Note to photographers: I...

put this together . . .

for my twitter background.  My husband can’t believe it because I don’t even Tweet / Twitter (whatever).  I do, however, check out other people’s Tweets.  And I love it when their backgrounds are filled with the beautiful images they have taken.  So I made a background for my Twitter page.  Don’t laugh. The actual background...

going back in time . . .

We are studying the American Revolution right now.  And what is a study of the American Revolution without costumes??  This is how my kids were dressed all morning.  Thanks to Linda for the costumes.  The blue dress was my grandma’s.  Brings back good memories. We are using the Konos (konos.com) curriculum in case there are...
