I have been dreaming about shooting a foggy photo session. Something about fog is sooo dreamy and idyllic. Every foggy morning, I wish I had a client on tap – or someone pregnant or with a baby – that I could call and say, “Meet me at xyz place!!” Short term notice like that doesn’t […]

Oh, beautiful Hope. This was my second time photographing this darling, spunky little girl for her two year milestone session. I met Hope and her parents in June of 2018 when I did her one year photos. She started that session a little apprehensive and unsure of the stranger who was clicking a black box […]

Ahhh, this family. How special they are to me. They are part of a network of close-knit friends, many of whom have come to me for photos, and the support I have received from Sarah is just mind-blowing.
