This is the start of a brand new series: The Simple Things. I loveeeee to write. Always have–whether it’s been school papers or personal journaling, God’s given me a love for expression through written word. Maybe because I’m shy and can articulate so much better this way?

Beth+Elijah–I’m so blessed to get to call these two friends. Beth and I grew up alongside each other in the dance studio. We traveled states away, competed, and cried and bled together all for the sake of a richly shared passion. I could not have been happier that Beth wanted me to photograph her time […]

I recently became acquainted with Miranda and Kyle through the Windmill Winery. We put a coffee date on the calendar soon after meeting (I was so glad to hear that Miranda shared my enjoyment for the coffee experience), and I was thoroughly joyful to leave that get-together knowing the relationship was to continue.
