local love in bloom

03/27/2015

Last month I had the pleasure of attending Local Love in Bloom, a small gathering of local creatives and bloggers hosted by FOUND . Laurel from Sweet Laurel helped organize the event and designed and created all the decor, featuring Hester and Cook kitchen papers. Of course my dear friend Kim from The TomKat Studio was there, and provided a tasty raspberry cham[...]

babywearing favorites for every age and stage

03/02/2015

As most of my friends, family, and probably followers know, I like to wear my babies. For me, it's just easier than any other option when out and about--and with little babes, easy is what I want. When I was pregnant with Everett, Aspen wasn't even two yet, she wasn't the greatest listener in public and my ErgoBaby carrier wasn't comfortable around my[...]

newborn: hudson

Sweet Hudson boy is the second little bundle for our friends Pat and Diana, I can't even believe years have passed since I snuggled his sister Haper as a newbie. Hudson was so fresh and so new for his session at just 10 days old, it was perfect! We did a mini shoot and are planning a lifestyle session with his whole family soon, I can't wait!

newborn lifestyle: jack

I love when parents contact me months and months ahead of time, then patiently wait for my response, which embarrassingly isn't always as fast as it should be. Most of all, I love when families ask me to take their photos, not because I am the cheapest or most convenient, but because they saw and fell in love with my work. Maggie has impeccable taste, as you can t[...]

engagement: spencer+brooke

02/11/2015

Since I don't currently shoot weddings, it isn't often I get to do engagement sessions, and it's a shame. It was so fun to do this session, try something new, and get to know Spencer and Brooke and their love story. I would LOVE to do more of these, there's so much more I want to try; if anyone is interested, let's get in touch ASAP.

newborn lifestyle: emery

I love the creative community we have here in Phoenix, especially within photography. It's truly a community of support and love, one where many friendships have grown from. Brooke and Garrett contacted me through our mutual photographer friend, Charity, who I had the privilege of photographing when her own little one, Achilles, was born. During our session, I couldn'[...]

lifestyle maternity: an adventure into film

01/26/2015

I am in a place in my business and life where I am trying to find balance. I'm learning to manage my current workload well while remaining a present parent and wife. I've made the choice to find this balance before growing my business any larger or taking on new projects, sometimes sacrificing really amazing opportunities, because I know the foundation I need to b[...]

entertaining with Coca-Cola

01/23/2015

S'mores, campfires, an aspen covered mountain, and Coca-Cola--this speaks to my soul. Some of my best memories are from camping out in the woods with my family and friends, gathered around a smoky fire, with nothing but the sounds of laughter and the river nearby. I realize this styled shoot by The TomKat Studio is holiday inspired, but I love the idea year round,[...]

newborn lifestyle: samantha

I've not kept my love for newborn lifestyle photos much of a secret. I just adore them. I also adore my dear friend Jessica, and feel so lucky to have photographed both her precious girls when they were brand new (see, this is Hailey right here). I have been thinking a lot lately about whether or not I will go back to traditional newborn photos now that Ever[...]
