Jennifer and Chris: Their Wedding Story (Part II)
The DIY details of Jennifer and Chris’s carnival-themed nuptials had me in shooting overload. Everywhere I turned, another touch of this couple’s creativity and hard work pulling off the perfect day! Love it when live musicians are hired to escort a bride down the aisle….And instead of a guestbook, Jennifer and Chris had their friends...
Jennifer and Chris: Their Wedding Story (Part I)
Jennifer had not one—but TWO—beautiful dresses to celebrate her big day. Both were GORGEOUS and perfect for the occasion! (and might I add they had pockets? GENIUS!) So many personal details that tied into their festive carnival theme, from Jennifer’s charm bracelet and other vintage jewelry to the handkerchief she kept on hand in the...

The Decker Family: 2011 Portraits
When Holly contacted me early in the summer about setting up September portraits with her family, of course I didn’t hesitate to say “YES!” I just adore this family and how laid-back they are. How, when we get together, it feels like old friends. It’s how I want every portrait session of mine to be...
September Book Review: Love Marks by Kevin Roberts
Of all the biz-themed books I’ve been reading this year, I have to admit that “Lovemarks” did the least for me.
I found the style of the book the hardest element in luring me in. Whereas I’m sure a lot of visual types (or individuals with ADHD) would be drawn to how the author, Kevin Roberts...
