Every summer I load myself & the kids up and we take an extended vacation to Michigan. It’s where my husband is from and one of my absolute favorite places on the face of this earth. I always say I was born a city girl but meant to be in the country. I love the […]

So, about 7-8 years ago I started photography and I thought I was going to waltz in and be this amazing newborn photographer. I spent all the money I didn’t have to turn my living room into a home studio on Fort Carson in Colorado Springs. I had just found out I was expecting my […]

Oh the sweet, sweet Kahan family. Several years ago I shot engagements and wedding for a couple, well a couple years after that I was introduced to this family because they are co-parenting their oldest son together. Does that make sense?! Haha in my mind it does! Anywho – they have become very near and […]

The one thing I love most about my family is how open everyone is. I don’t mean that in a creep way either because I’m about to share boudoir photos of my sister in law that I personally took. But seriously, there’s no odd feelings asking my sister in law if she could plllleassseeee let […]

Uhm. Beautiful creamy sunset say whattttttt?! I have not had such a perfect sunset in soooooo long. I mean, really, I haven’t had many shooting days since I’ve been taking it slow for so long but still! I am dying! So I shot Alyssa & Zach’s wedding a couple years ago and it was dreamy! […]

You know when you meet someone and you just know that they are going to be meaningful people in your life?! There’s just something about them? Yeah, well, that was Jamie & Kevin for me.

But to be honest, I was always so busy between making sure all the kids were taken care of, sports were attended, house was clean, etc, […]

As many families out there, my family has been social distancing/quarantining for the last 20 days. (At least that’s when we started.) We haven’t left the house with the exception of some hospital visits and then our necessary trips to the grocery stores. We have not even gone on walks. BUT, after 20 days, and […]

Two and a half weeks ago I had just picked my sister in law up from the airport. The first several cases of COVID-19 had just barely been popping up across the US, mostly in northern California and Washington. We went straight from the airport to pick up our 15 seater van that we had […]

I needed this. I needed this session so much. With everything going on in the world, being able to do something that I love and create something so beautiful, just really struck me. It really hit my place of passion. They were super sweet to boot so it was all around just something that was […]
