It was hot, sunny, and humid. The perfect day for a May wedding. This past year I have had the wonderful privilege of being an associate photographer for Hannah Balta! Hannah and I met a few years ago after I moved to NY. Hannah is an amazingly-talented photographer who recently got married and moved to […]

Sprit-filled. God-honoring. Hot. If I had to describe Haleigh and Luis’ wedding day in just a few short words, those are what I would choose. If you read my blog post a few weeks ago, you would know that I traveled to Missouri. You would also know that I shot engagement photos for Haleigh and […]

The air was cool. The wind was blowing. It was time for the first look. Angela hiked up her 7-layer wedding dress, and made her way towards her dad. This was a moment I wish I could have frozen in time. Ed sighed and took a long deep breath in. He was ready to see […]

Kansas City. The city of fountains. The city of 200 fountains. As we climbed out of the car, I could immediately feel my hair expand as I was hit with a wave of humidity. The smell of rain and exhaust crawled into my nose. My head was foggy from many hours of travel, accompanied by […]

Katie and […]

Rain pounded against my car. My windshield wipers traveled at high speed. Highway traffic moving at a measly pace of 20 mph. Filled with frustration, I voice texted Jeni that we would have to reschedule for the second time. Like many times before, I was traveling on I-287 through New Jersey, on my way to […]

Happy Tuesday friends! It’s hard to believe we are almost halfway through April! If you live in the Northeast like me, then you may agree that it still feels too cold for April..between the rain and the cold, I am afraid we will have a repeat of last summer. Anyway, this blog post is extra […]

Happy almost April friends! It’s hard to believe that we are almost four months into 2022! Anyway, it’s been a hot second since I’ve blogged a session. The cold and the snow are not typically tempting for people to want to schedule sessions. But this session is extra exciting for a variety of reasons. For […]

So your pathology results came back…and looks like it’s cancer….. It was a typical Thursday afternoon in late February. It was a day off from the hospital, but not a day off from work.
