Julia’s Walker
After months of trying (unsuccessfully) to get our daughter Julia to use her walker, she finally decided. And her world opened up and has never been the same. There is so much she is discovering now that she is mobile on her own. We decided to take her out to the family farm over Labor […]
Yancey Family Portait
I met a fantastic family last weekend for their holiday shoot. Tina and Kevin run the local bread bakery and are absolutely delightful people.

Pumpkin Fun!

Photo Shoot for My Favorite Family
Christian spent the first nine months of his life in a hospital, but now this little boy is completely free of tubes, wires and monitors and his family wanted to celebrate with a portrait shoot.
