When I talk with people and the topic of photography comes up, the first thing I often hear is some version of, “That’s so great. I would love to do a session, but I’m just not photogenic.” The truth is, you do not have to be photogenic to love your photos. I understand the hesitation […]

A wedding day brings together many moving parts. The people, the planning, the atmosphere, and the thoughtful choices that bring it all together. The food will be enjoyed.The flowers will be admired.The music will carry you through the night. Long after the day has passed, how it felt is what lingers. Photography preserves those moments […]

Once your photos are organized, the next step is making sure they are protected. Images live on fragile things. Phones break. Computers fail. Hard drives stop working. Backing up and protecting your photos matters. Creating Redundancy If your phone stopped working today, would you still have access to your photos? Cloud services like Dropbox, Google […]

Senior year has a way of speeding up. Whether you’re finishing high school or wrapping up your college years, this season is full. Classes, commitments, celebrations, goodbyes, and big next steps all begin stacking on top of one another. It’s exciting, meaningful, and often a little overwhelming all at once.

I always love getting to know my clients a little bet before their session. Something that stood out to me in our conversations was that this was going to be their first family session in many years. For all the reasons we find to put off updating photos, she recognized that her boys were growing […]

I saw a quote recently that said, “There are friends, there is family, and then there are friends that become family.” Few people in my life have personified this more than these two and their family. I’ve known them my entire life, and I was honored to capture a couples photography session with them. As […]

The Thomson family knows how to have fun. From their ability to laugh with one another, make silly faces, and play together, their joy is contagious. From movies to pinball games (they have even more than I do!) to joke telling, you can always tell they’re laughing and finding new ways to have fun. I […]

Before this family was a family of six, it started with just two people who chose each other. That is what stood out to me most during this session at Daybreak Lake.
