The door open was unlocked for me. Jenn was still getting ready so I stepped inside, as I called out ‘hello.’ Their giggles came from the living room. The children were running around the living room and I immediately found myself enveloped in a whirlwind of activity— Jenn said hello as she gathered lunch, all...
How do I prepare when I’ve never had a newborn photography session? ‘Oh no.. it’s happening!’ The new mom exclaims frantically as she uses her hand to shield mustard yellow poop from running onto my spotless, ivory couch. It’s only spotless because it frequently gets cleaned by me & my good friend Oxy-Clean. I’ve removed...
Remember when you started riding a bike? My training wheels didn’t come off until I was ten! It was my first lesson in failure as a part of life.

This distracting epiphany presented itself in the middle of a wedding a few years ago while shooting some bridal portraits. She posed for me in a fantastically rustic soybean field, mottled...
It’s almost April already… the Ides of March have come & gone… the day that my daughter was born. The day I began to see the world in a different way. When I began to realize just how hard it was going to be to teach another human being everything I have learned & everything I still...
‘You’re 30?’ Jonathon’s eyes grew wide with amazement as he asked me the question. I am fairly certain that ‘thirty’ sounds like old age to a teenager. Jonathon is my step-sister’s first born.
