There are these people… People that maybe you don’t sit down with very often – but they have this way of filling your soul and lifting your spirits anytime you do have the privilege of spending more than 5 seconds with them.  They care.  Deeply.  They love.  With all that they have.  And they constantly […]

the sims family

Giggles.  Races.  Love. It’s what the best sessions are made of. And that’s exactly what Lucy and the two adorable kids she nannies brought… Lucy, thank you so much for setting up a time that we could run, play and capture the adorable-ness of you three.  And thank you for being the loving, giving person […]

giggles

I love them. The way they laugh together. The hilarious stories they tell. The fact that they will totally pull out baby pictures if you just ask. The love they share with each other and extend to people around them. This family?  AMAZING. And here are some pictures that will help you understand why.  And […]

the billings family

It’s no secret.  I love her name. Some of the most beautiful women I know share that name… And she is just that.  Beautiful.  She has a gentleness and kindness that goes far beyond the number of years she’s collected so far.  And just by looking in her stunning eyes, you can see this endless […]

I believe women are beautiful. The sad truth?  We oftentimes don’t realize it.  We’re afraid of it.  We’ve been told directly or indirectly that we’re just not.  The bottom line?  It’s easy for us to believe that we’re less than. I want to do something about that. Specifically, I want to help women realize and […]

intimacy sessions

From across the room, you asked me. And I giggled.  Like I always do. You asked me that if I knew seven years ago what life would be like – two kids and a third on the way – would I have believed it… I politely and ever so sweetly said I would have run […]

seven

It’s official. In slightly less than one month, I will be putting down my camera so that I can hold a new baby boy.  (And then I’ll put down said baby boy and probably take an overwhelming amount of pictures of him…) So with that said, I did want to put a little reminder out […]

timelines and such…

I was tempted to write that I’ve been busy.  Because then maybe I’d sound cool. But the truth is – life haven’t been “busy”.  Life has been full.  Full of great conversations, full of work towards a new website design that will hopefully be released in about a month, full of belly kicks, full of […]

Full

Maybe it’s because I moved a lot. Maybe it’s because I’m ridiculously sentimental. Maybe it’s because the people with whom I have the privilege of sharing life with mean the world to me… But no matter what the reason; I hate good-byes. And I may secretly avoid them like the plague. Because if I just […]

I hate goodbyes…

Today I stopped everything. And I was fully present.  I stopped thinking about my to-do list.  I stopped wondering when this baby would come.  I let go of the desire to plan out this summer.  And I forgot about all the emails I needed to write. And I giggled.  Big time. I saw my kids.  […]
