Welcome! Thank you for visiting.

While there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see. ~Dorothea Lange

Cold and happy

This was one of those super cold, November days where the wind was blowing and there was no sunshine.....
Can you even tell?
This is the awesome part of having your good friends ask you to take family photos.... you can talk them into anything!
This family and their sweet little boys I have known since they were newborns.
I just want to pinch their cheeks in all these pictures.
I love these photos!
Thank you guys for enduring such a frigid day and to the ever amazing "S" family for letting me crash your beautiful property!!
I am so grateful for all of you in my life.





Just no fun

Seriously- can you tell that this family has no fun together, ever?
Can you tell how sarcastic I am being?
I can say that because they are friends from a long time back and I know that they have a BLAST together. 
They inspire me every time I see them to really enjoy family and make the best of every day.
Securing memories of joy and laughter for my kids.
Thank you, "B" family!





Tanker's family

This family are dear friends of ours and the first time I took their picture there was only one beautiful little girl and a very petite, white, fluffy dog.
I totally thought the dog's name was "Tinker"- and proceeded to call him that for the whole shoot. (which would explain why he never looked at me)
I love that his name is really "Tanker" and really looks like a "tinker bell"!
But mostly, I love his family!
Of which is a whole person bigger, with the handsome, little, "I".
(trying to be better about not putting kids names on internet...)




Sarah and Thomas


I LOVE engagement shoots.
Next to weddings, they may be my favorite thing to photograph.
It makes me all mushy with my hubby and remember all the magic and joy of that happy beginning!
Sarah and Thomas- thank you so much for letting me capture such a special time for you!
I am really looking forward to your big day this winter (not as much as you, I'm sure!)
Thank you also for picking the most perfect day and lighting possible!!
I am so happy for you both!




The "C" family

I am ever so behind on posting...... 
I have all these lovely, fall, portraits that I keep meaning to get up here....
so now I'm going to catch up!
I had the privilege of spending time with Michelle and Anthony and their two lively, and sweet boys.
I hope this selection of my favorites shows the happy connection they had 
and what a joy it was to spend time with them!
