A super fun part of my job is choosing where to take photos for people. And the best part of that fun is when I get to play tourist like I did this past weekend. Getting to do what I love for a job is certainly not something I take for granted; I’m grateful every […]

It’s Wedding Wednesday and this week that means I’m sharing my fourth post in my series on wedding photography planning. So far we’ve established three ways you can get amazing wedding photos: include your photographer in planning your day-of timeline, pick the photography package that’s perfect for you, and book an engagement session with your […]

I need to start this post by saying how darn excited I am to share these Georgetown maternity photos with you! Caroline & Judd asked that I wait until after their son was born to share these images & I think the waiting made these gorgeous photos that much sweeter in my heart! You may […]

It’s Monday! I say that every Monday as if it’s a celebration haha But it kind of is a celebration when you’re passionate about your work and excited for what’s in store for the week! I had a pretty great weekend, aside from experiencing the beginning stages of a summer cold. I did some location […]

There were unicorns, candy, bright colors everywhere, & even a cake to smash! All the trappings of a […]

I usually start off my Fun Monday posts wishing everyone a happy Monday, but something tells me this is a happier Monday than most! It’s the Monday just before a holiday & if you’re like me, you took full advantage of the July 4th weekend & extended it through to today! The 4th may not […]

I think I’ve said this before, and I may be biased (OK, I’m totally biased), but giving the gift of photography is such a sweet thing to do. You’re pretty much golden with whomever you’re giving the photography session to! Joe won some major brownie points, I’m sure, when he gave his wife, Natalie, Meadowlark […]
