The image below (and the b/w version of it) is for me and me alone. Well, ok, you too, if you need a smile. I was shooting a family session and we heard squeals of delight… squeals that could only come from a little girl having the time of her life. I turned quickly to...

Michelle and Scott – A Wedding
Sitting at a Christmas party, a friend asked how my photography was going. We were quickly joined by another lady – “My daughter is getting married in a few months and they don’t have a photographer yet. Can I give her your information?” Ummm… let me think… SURE!

A new year is such a gift...

long time, no post…
While I have been capturing weddings, children and families for over six years now, I am new to the world of promoting my business online. Sometimes keeping everything balanced… motherhood (and all that goes with it) and photography (and all that goes with that) is daunting to say the least! I am in a tremendous...
