Captured this image  last week as I was admiring the gentle light reflecting from the water. Knowledge and use of light is so crucial to my job as an artist. I love light, and I always find this verse intriguing me as I think on these things: “…God is light, and in Him is no […]

Small things bringing me joy this week: Making it out of the Grand Canyon. Such a simple statement I’m so grateful for.  Finding this blog post late one night as I was contemplating some big decisions for my business in the next year. It was terribly convicting.

  I finally did it. I broke-up with the DVD. This has been such a longggg time coming. I’ve kept my eye on a cloud service called PASS for awhile now, but could never quite commit. I loved packaging my sweet little DVD’s and knowing my clients were going to receive a beautifully wrapped gift […]

I’ve known Mariana for awhile now. Strangely enough, I second shot her wedding 3 years before I showed […]

Ashley is the incredible designer and planner behind Ashley Gain Weddings and Events. Being familiar with her work, I was overjoyed when she asked me to photograph her son’s first birthday party knowing it was going to be spectacular down to every little detail. I love to shoot details, so to say I had fun carefully […]

Can you say CUTE??! Seriously. This little family is the epitome of cuteness, and, you might even say, coolness. Dad’s in a band (and a financial advisor!), mom’s a makeup artist and founder of Blonde and Banker, and little Sophie…well, she’s on the way to starting her modeling career. You’ll see. I’m all about clear […]
