"A thing that you see in my pictures is that I was not afraid to fall in love with these people."
— Annie Leibovitz
I’ve said this SO MANY TIMES before, but having boudoir photos taken is such an AMAZING experience! And something that I think every woman should do! Here are just a few of the “Why’s” for you to consider…
Read MoreAs I was sitting on my couch reading, I came across this passage… and it hit me… hard. I HAD to stop and document it. And then immediately posted it on my social media because it was just… so much… “Yes”.
Read MoreI feel like you all are going to learn a LOT about me while we’re all quarantined. lol Without new sessions and material to share, and I’m going back to my list of “oh I should I write about that someday!” blog post ideas. ;) One of which is how I got started in photography…
Read MoreWith everything being shut down (as of my writing this on April 21st), and not being able to photograph actual clients in my studio right now, I decided to try to use my built up creative energy to do some self portraits and play around with different poses… well, I’ll tell you, it was a lot more work than I thought it would be! lol BUT out of all of the images that I took (and there were MANY!) I did end up with some that I am quite proud of!
Read MoreEven though I wasn’t there, I still KNOW that the day was magical and emotional. I know that there were tears, big ol’ smiles, and lots of hugs. I know that there was hand holding and gentle touches. I know that Dad kissed Mom, and Mom had a brave smile on her face. I know that Dad stood back in awe as he watched his partner bring his child into the world. I know that he was feeling so many emotions as he met the small, helpless little person that his wife had been nurturing, protecting, and physically experiencing (mostly alone) for the last 9 months.
Read MoreAs a “non-essential” business, I can work “remotely”… and what’s more “remote” than photographing you via webcam?? Not only is this a fun experience for both of us, but it’s an iconic way to document what life in 2020 was like for us.
Read MoreToday, my daughter turns 8 years old.
I really have no idea how that happened. I look at photos from her three, four, five years ago and I can REMEMBER that day. I can remember the conversations and the funny things that she said. I can’t quite believe that it didn’t happen yesterday.
Read MoreI used to think that doing boudoir photos always seemed like you would be doing it for someone else to give the pictures to, I couldn’t have been more wrong. It was really empowering and the biggest take away I think from the entire experience was to feel seen. That might sound weird but being a wife, mother, employee, boss and friend is overwhelming at times like I am something for someone all the time and that someone is never myself.
Read MoreI mentioned a couple of posts before that I attended the Click Away photography conference in Atlanta before shit hit the fan. I want to take a minute to tell you all about the conference! I came home with so many great ideas and inspiration… and new contacts in the industry! It was definitely just the thing that I needed before coming home to quarantine.
Read MoreI’m writing this post on March 24th, 2020. This is day #7 of unwanted, unintended, forced upon me, homeschool. This is also roughly day #11 of “social distancing” and just being around my immediate family 24/7. And, day #1 of “stay home, stay safe” aka “shelter in place” aka “stay the f- home”.
Read MoreOne of my biggest regrets around the births of my two kids is that I don’t have more photos. I was so doped up on medications, and SOO exhausted, that I barely remember anything about what happened those days.
Read MoreThe answer to this is yes… and no… or, rather, maybe. Let me explain.
Read MoreRemember the days of Myspace and wasting hours of your life filling out silly little quizzes and questionnaires about your life and preference? Or am I totally aging myself right now? =) Well, either way, I saw this little going around the interwebs and thought it would be the perfect Valentine’s post and provide a little “get to know your wedding photographer” information, too!
Read MoreOver the years, I’ve had the privilege of photographing some beautiful wedding ceremonies in some gorgeous locations… and I’d love to share some of those with you. Maybe you’ll find your place among the list, or maybe just some inspiration and ideas… either way, it’s a win!
Read MoreSuddenly, I was no longer concerned with lumps. I felt BEAUTIFUL! My body felt strong. My confidence soared.
She showed a couple snaps on her camera throughout the session, and I was blown away. Why was I so worried? I looked like a BABE! There were no lumps, no love handles. I didn’t have backfat erupting from the back of my thong, or cellulite on my thighs that looked like cottage cheese. I looked like a strong, sexy, confident women.
Read MoreKayla and her fiance, David, told me that they were planning on getting married on September 19, 2019… 9/19/19… this year’s palindrome day! They had already booked the garden at Green Villa Barn and Garden in Independence, Oregon and was hoping that I’d be willing to travel for document their big day. Without hesitation, I said “Yes!” they seemed like a fun couple and the venue looked gorgeous! We got a contract signed, their date on my calendar, and then waiting for over a year! But, I’ll tell you, it was worth the wait!
Read MoreToday is World Mental Health Day. Organizations and celebrities all over the world are posting articles, videos, and posts on social media trying to help raise awareness about this issue (including this video by two of my favorite red heads!). But did you know that being photographed, and seeing yourself in photographs, can have a positive effect on your mental health?
Read MoreFrom the moment that I arrived at Matt and Jessica’s house for their first wedding consultation, I knew that I wanted them to book me, and that it was going to be an awesome wedding!
Read MoreOn the morning of her induction, I drove to the hospital with so much excitement and anticipation. I’d been actively waiting for this day for three weeks and was ready to, once again, document mama’s strength and dad’s support as they welcomed their newest addition into the world… what I was NOT expecting, was the full family affair that this day was going to be!
