Grace’s biggest request was to have some senior portraits in a sunflower field. In all honesty, I had never done a session in a sunflower field before, but they turned out even better than I imagined! The rest of her session we spent near and on some family land, just as we had done for […]

We met at a local downtown coffee shop in the spring of 2019. Chesley had just proposed and Ally was so excited to begin planning the wedding for March 2020. I quickly picked up on her laid back demeanor. A quality that Ally would certainly need in the coming months. Just two days before her […]

Kory walked across the stage on May 21st and received his diploma from Providence Christian School. Kory’s mom, Melissa, has been one of my very dearest friends since kindergarten. It’s almost unfathomable, but 30 years ago we were walking across the stage together at our own graduation. Kory is a talented young man no doubt. […]

Congratulations to Jacob Welch who graduated from Rehobeth High School this week! Jacob, without a doubt, is one of the most polite young men I have ever met. There was never a time that I worked with him that he wasn’t full of “yes mams” or offering to help me with equipment. In his spare […]

This sweet one holds a special place in my heart. She’s my niece and I just can’t get enough of her little chubby self. There is no doubt in my mind that she will be tough as nails with two big brothers who are close in age.

For the past few months, I have had the privilege to photograph families for the cover of a local magazine. Meeting the families is a joy! Meet the Powell family…. It was a scorcher of a day in July when we met. Summer Thunderstorms had already interrupted our appointment once. Despite the heat, the Powell […]

I’ve know Kory his entire 18 years. His mom and I first met in kindergarten. By the time we graduated high school we were the best of friends. So, naturally, when they called to schedule Kory’s senior photos I was thrilled! We met up on a scorching Friday evening to grab a few photos for […]
