When you think back on how your kids were when they were small, you will want to remember how they actually were, not just what they looked like.  You’ll want to remember the crinkle in your daughter’s nose when she was really laughing…you know…that no-sound-coming-out-cannot-catch-your-breath belly laugh.  You’ll want to remember your son’s dimples, or...

Wow, it’s been a long time since I have taken the time to blog! I saw Camden and his family back in February, just before Valentine’s Day and we took some portraits of the 6 month old heart breaker.  I just love his impish grin!

These two sisters had me hopping and dancing about in this beautiful field, chasing them around in the beautiful angel wings their mama (a fellow photographer) brought along.  Between giggle fits, I couldn’t get over the sweetness that these two share.  They are so connected, so loving, so polite and so much fun!

This past week I had the honor of photographing Joy and Thomas’ wedding on the Hawaiian Island of Maui.  Wailuku, Hawaii to be exact.  Joy and Thomas actually live on the Island, so the festivities were based around Hawaiian traditions, family and local customs…..all of which I absolutely LOVE!    First up was the cooking of...

Dylan is an all around, well-blanaced, good-head-on-his-shoulders, unassuming, nice guy.  I enjoyed every minute of our senior portrait session.  Dylan is a proud member of his high school’s baseball and football teams.  Our hope was to go to the high school ball field (which we did) and then head over to the stadium for some...
