Gig of the Year 2018
Great client relationships are important, but it’s often the pro bono gigs that give me the chance to branch out, sharpen new skills and stay creatively fresh.
Dayton Adventures with Caleb and Morgan
Dayton is a great city for a photo shoot – especially with the wide choice of locations. Caleb and Morgan wanted to take advantage of all of them!
Annie
I got an ask from a friend to do her daughter’s senior pictures. I don’t always go looking for those assignments as much, but end up loving it every time. After a summer of a lot of other things going on, it was great to get back into a creative rhythm and Annie was an […]
Day #7 – Why I Clicked…
Day #7/365: Taking down the Christmas decorations at the farm can be especially bittersweet, mostly because there’s that question in the back your mind… Are we doing this again next year?

Candace
Candace is a longtime friend, fellow artist and encourager who decided to treat herself to a portrait sitting. She is finishing her first novel and one of these shots may end up on her book jacket. As stylish and comfortable in front of the camera as she is, it was a challenge culling from the […]
The Coon Family on the Farm
I have some dear friends that have been and incredible encouragement to our family – one of which is an incredibly talented photographer. As is the case with a lot of families, geography has made it tough to get together regularly and they wanted to capture it. Since she needed to be in the pictures, […]
