Blessings.

I wanted to wish you all a Very Merry Christmas! Enjoy every moment this time offers, from tears of joy when seeing loved ones again to tears of sorrow thinking of loved ones who are no longer with you in body, but in spirit. Cherish the moments of expression, emotion, gratitude and most of all... love. Really soak in every moment.

Thank you so much to all my clients from 2008, I look forward to working with you again soon and experiencing new moments that you have to share!

To my best friends (this includes my husband!)... I just want to thank you for all the support and encouragement, for letting me ramble on about photography forEVER, and most of all, for the love! You have been the best friends anyone could ask for, sometimes I think it is unfair that I am so lucky to have you. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I love you.

Cheers to a new year full of blessings and beginnings. God Bless you all!

moments.

If a moment could be frozen in time... preserved for all of eternity...
it would be one of peace, stillness, trust and faith.
It would be one not found in the vaults of great people,
of those with many riches and much knowledge.
It would not be handed over to men and women of high esteem...

... rather, it would be placed gently into the hands of a little child,
where it would be safe and cherished in it's rightful grace forever.

Thank you to the person who brought this to my attention. I find it captivating and touching, especially during the Christmas season.

winter family session.

I was so excited to do this shoot! Snow can make for some beautiful photos! It turned out to be perfect... mild temperatures, fresh snow fall, new snow falling so gently and of course a gorgeous family! Just a note that this entire family, I mean everyone, has the most incredible eyes. I so wish i could have captured more close shots of their eyes. After about an hour and a half or so, the boys were sooo cold, they did so well tho and each got a candy cane after the drive back (when both of their boots and socks were off and mom and I were rubbing feet with the heater cranked!)! Thank you so much for trusting me with these memories, I truly hope you enjoy them and I can't wait to work with you guys again, let's change it up tho and wait for some hot weather beach shots!!

kids.

I was so happy when a friend asked if I would take photos of her 2 children! As every session has unique and different people and locations, I was excited to try some more indoor shots as well as take a few outside! The children were excited to try anything! The little girl was the perfect poser and really made my job easy, while her little brother on the other hand, was full of life and allowed me to capture true "moments"!
