Upon waking up from her nap I greeted Charley with her “bayee” Lola and laid her down on Charley’s beloved pillow pet. And, like the strongest magnet in all the world she immediately dropped down to link their cheeks together. Lola smiled, Charley laid still and I was able to capture an image I will [...]

The reason I’ve been silent:
Dearest readers and friends, I am so excited to finally be able to share why I have been missing these past few weeks … Tuesday, January 10th I was sitting in a movie (Twilight – during “the scene” no less!) when I noticed my girlfriend’s phone lighting up. I looked over to see Corey’s number [...]
Story Corps
Corey stumbled upon Story Corps right around the 10th anniversary of 9/11. If you are like we were and have never heard of Story Corps they are a business worth knowing about. Copied from Wikipedia Story Corps “is an American non-profit organization whose mission is to record, preserve, and share the stories of Americans from all backgrounds [...]
Jessica + Grant
Life for me is still being lived in Crazyland, but I wanted to drop-in and share some images with you. I took these just a few weeks ago and as I was preparing their print order they yet again brought a smile across my face. Jessica and Grant were the ideal clients. Beautiful people inside [...]
Matt + Susan – a summer wedding*
In the midst of the craziness this summer I also photographed a few weddings. I hope to get them blogged, but I know I cannot go another day without blogging this one. This is my insanely fun (truly one of the most fun people I know to be around) and gorgeous cousin. The day was [...]

our entire lives changed in April when we got the call from the agency that a birth mom wanted to meet us. It was in that moment that I knew this story was meant to be ours. Two and a half months later we finally welcomed our baby girl into the world (this past Thursday, [...]
Just me and you and a little love …
I had breakfast with my dear friend Cyndi last week and she asked me why I no longer post photos from sessions I do. I confessed I am lazy. Okay, so I’m not that lazy (although I do *love* to sleep). It just takes time. Which is lame I know because there are loads of [...]
knock, knock …
…anybody home? Why hello, world! I am in fact here and, I’ve learned something terribly tragic. When my husband is out of town I have zero balance in my life. He’s been gone for 2 weeks. (I feel like I can finally write that now that he’s only hours from being home. (didn’t want any [...]
April 6, 2010 :: 3:00 EST
It is such a huge day today. I didn’t quite picture it like this, but nevertheless here’s how it’s playing out: I’m sitting in a Bruegger’s Bagels in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Corey is interviewing here and I’m typing frantically knowing that he’s going to call very soon to tell me to come pick him [...]
the calm before the invited storm
It was just weeks before her due date. Two itty bitty babies silently swimming in her stomach. Their home was quiet and clean and in evident readiness for what was about to happen. I loved being invited in to document the last few days of life with just the two of them (and, their sweet [...]
