When I look back at the images from my childhood, I see what I looked like, a little blue eyed, blonde haired girl with a button nose.  I see my favorite clothing and my favorite people standing beside me.  But, there are a few photographs, taken by my father that I can’t get out of my head.  Through them I can see a little glimpse of who I was.  I see the way my father saw me, and I see the same mischievous sparkle in my eye that my oldest son has in his.  They are unspeakably beautiful and real to me.  

I am passionate about photography, and specifically about my photography business.  I love to shoot for clients almost as much as I love to photograph my own family.  Sometimes I meet a client and make an instant friendship, and I love that.  Other times, we make a connection that’s strong, but not immediate, and I love that, too.  A strong connection always leads to beautiful images and renews my passion for what I do.

I’ve been told I have a calm presence, especially when I’m behind the lens.  That doesn’t surprise me.  Photographing has felt “right” to me since the first time I picked up a camera.  

My style is fresh and intimate and real.
