Relationships...

Do you remember the first time a friend in school moved away? My dear daughter said goodbye to Abby this past January and everyday I think of the good times (albeit not nearly enough years) that we spent with her family. I can, in an instant, go back to a giggle fest or two and be pulled from the rainy doldrums of this spring to a moment (or three or four) that just light up my day. I find myself driving over to Abby’s house to check if my good friend Misty can run to Biaggi’s for a bread pudding (ahhhhhh bread pudding ❤).

With a heavy heart, this week I am once again saying goodbye to not one – but three families. Each family has a different story but the core remains the same. Each started out as clients and ended up as friends. We have 4 different states we can visit now. I know I have wonderful photography friends in these states who I know will carry on my legacy. I will joyfully refer these families onto my fellow professional photographers who will embrace my extended family and treat them like their own. But not being a part of their next milestone – well it is sad for me.

What I get to do for a living – it’s not about ME at all – I know there is a legacy I leave – long after I am gone from this earth art I created will be shared and passed on for generations – this thought is very little about me – and everything about the incredible people I have the honor and privilege to have met and now say “I know.”

There are a few times in our lives that we can freshly go back to an instant and remember the touch, taste and smell. I know I have those instant memories from family pictures. It’s about freezing a moment in time. Whose creating a piece of your family history? I’d like to be your family photographer. I’d like to photograph your pregnancy, your infant, your toddler, your kindergartener, your grade school student, your middle school child, and your teenager. I’d be honored to take your senior portraits. I am dedicated to creating artistry you will be proud of sharing with your childrens children. Please allow me to share in your moments.



Thank you to those family members who entered our lives. Our life is richer knowing you. I have people I know I can still call – you will be deeply missed. I will always be here – as your friend.

thanks for stopping by…
