What happens when you stomp your foot over and over while yelling, “I am not a wedding photographer” only to find yourself a few months later retracting every “I’m not a wedding photographer” statement ever yelled? Well, you’ll find me. I have said forever that my photography passions lie with families & children. Then I [...]

newsletter-n-nostalgia
By the end of this week I’m hoping to send out another newsletter. I’m busting at the seams with news I want to share – my plans for a winter on-line workshop for all aspiring photographers (wanna-be professionals or not), Christmas cards, 503 on the road locations for this fall, etc. If you did not [...]
…
Move the coffee table out..not there. Look behind the pillows…not there. Look under the couch…not there. I brought them in here with me, didn’t I?? Oh, wait. I’m home again. So, up the stairs I go to find my soft socks (a must when watching TV & catching up on emails) in my dog’s bed. [...]
Ass. here…
That’s me…affectionately known as Jessica’s ass. in the three afore mentioned blog posts. Before you get to wondering why I’m making an entry on her blog, let me just tell you. I am absolutely the boss of our relationship. (Come to think of it, I’m actually the boss of everything, but that’s beside the point.) [...]

They’ve decided to spare themselves the money and headaches for a bona-fide Las Vegas elopement. Cheers & blessings to you both! {Down one of the [...]
December 2004 (& me at my finest)
It was one day after Christmas. I was standing in a reception hall celebrating my niece’s christening. I will never forget what was playing over and over again on the TV. A tsunami had just occurred that morning surprising thousands upon thousands of people. Here I was celebrating with my family and clear across the [...]
1/2 way through the photo shoot…
My bff (who had come along for the ride to be my “assistant” (therefore I respectively called her my ass. for short)) asked me with distress in her voice, “are you okay?!” “What”, I replied? “Why?” …”Well, because your face is the color of that bright red door we were just taking pictures in front [...]
I love..
love. it’s just that simple. If someone asked – “if you could only shoot one category of photography, what would it be?” I’d answer with little hesitation: engagement photos. There’s something so pure and simple and magical about it all. Two people who have found each other, ready to settle down. together. as one. forever. [...]
