Oh sweet little boy. Getting you here was one of the most painful experiences of my life. But holding you?  I would go through anything again for that. I love you with all that I have. Welcome to the world sweet Asher Britton.   PS: Your daddy rocks. He captured most all of these moments. […]

Dear sweet baby boy,   You can come now.  Please… I caught up on all my emails, finished editing all the pictures and have everything else prepped to be handled by your dad. Please don’t make me wait anymore.  I want to meet you.  I want time to stop and me to count your toes […]

“I’m not nervous.  Is that wrong?” Her mom just smiled. No.  It wasn’t. Not at all.  She was too excited to be nervous.  (And she had planned so well – all she had to do was enjoy this day to the fullest…) When their eyes met for the first time that day, they held each […]

There’s a lot to smile about around here. A baby boy that will HOPEFULLY enter this world sometime this week.  (If all else fails – he’ll be here by July 11) Someone coming to view our house tonight. An amazing husband. Two hilarious and wonderful kids.  Who may have a little too much energy for […]

Mother love is the fuel that enables a normal human being to do the impossible. – Unknown   Some emails that I receive are so thoughtful and sweet, my day is immediately made.  (Yes, I have the coolest clients)  And when I got her email saying they wanted to surprise their mom with a photo […]

To know them is to love them. To realize that you’ve been blessed just to have met such amazing people. People who serve until it hurts. People who love deeply. People who listen with their whole selves. People who can instantly make your day better with the most hilarious and unexpected comment ever. People who […]

A trip half-way across the world made it all clear. She was the one. The one he wanted to spend all of his days with.  The one he wanted to grow old with.  To laugh with.  To explore this beautiful life God has given us… And she knew it wasn’t just another relationship.  This was […]

I can’t think. I’m trying to watch a workshop on photography, but my mind keeps wandering.  (the workshop?  Master Your Craft by Mike Colon and Bob Davis. GREAT stuff…) Because right now he’s chasing a dream. My husband is sitting in an interview sharing who he is (and all the awesome-ness that goes with) and […]

I sometimes can’t believe that I get to work with people so kind, so loving, so encouraging and so beautiful. This lady?  She’s every.last.one. Twice over even. When she emailed me that she wanted to do another session – I squealed.  Because I was SO excited to spend time with her.  We could catch up […]

I love my kids.  Ridiculously so.  And one of my favorite things?  The things that they say.  For example: (and just in case you didn’t know – I am 36 weeks pregnant.   That would be an important detail for this to make sense) Hannah: I could break your water, mom. Me: I don’t think so, […]
