I just read a headline in my inbox stating that photography has been the key to the survival of America’s National Parks. How photographs have shaped the parks over their 100 year history, drawing crowds that have in turn brought money and the urge to save the land. It made me immediately think about the […]
What if? What if instead of fretting over the struggles in our life, we celebrated them, talked about them, showed them off? What if instead of more reality news we had real life news? What if we all started celebrating our real lives instead of just showing off the fancy parts? Here is the thing, […]
I don’t mean to toot my own horn or anything (well, actually I do), but I am pretty sure I am the perfect photographer for any family. I mean, picking a family photographer is so hard, right? You have to consider their work, word of mouth, your budget. How often are you meeting with your […]
“If I could make days last forever If words could make wishes come true I’d save every day like a treasure and then, Again, I would spend them with you“ -Jim Croce Time passes on whether we want it to or not. Change happens every day. Some days we search it out, drink it in […]

The heat index averages 108 and the humidity hovers around 98%. This place is miserable and makes me question […]
Documenting life isn’t always about faces, voices, or interactions. Sometimes it is about the things that are in our life. Items both big and small that make up our day to day routines. This project started simply enough. At the beginning of the month, we had high hopes of moving soon. We had been searching for a […]
Let’s face it, life with a new little one is hard, especially when there is a big sister too. You know as hard as you try to keep things the same, you just can’t. Once the new baby comes along, you will think back fondly to those moments when it was just you and your […]
