I will also say that this is the one thing that stresses me out the most before a shoot! I’ve learned over the years to find great locations that fit my subjects, […]

Senior Week: Style Tuesday!! If you’re like me…I need a few tips on being stylish. I wish I could say that I was born to see style and what goes together with what. Nope.

When I first met Caitlin for her wedding consultation, I was 34 weeks pregnant and we met at a local brewery. We giggled as I ordered water, but it didn’t matter much, because she was so fun to chat with. She shared how Cory proposed to her in the depths of the wilderness of Montana, […]

The past few weeks have been enlightening to say the least. It’s funny when something this world-changing occurs, we all start to get some perspective on what’s important, and what is meaningless in our lives.
