re:structure

This week I’m starting the process of evaluating where my business is at and regrouping to move forward. So many changes have happened in the past year and in order to make sure I’m doing my best it’s time to take a look at everything. So for anyone waiting to hear from me – thanks [...]

Derek and Marianne’s 4th of July wedding

I was privileged to spend this summer’s fourth of July with Marianne and Derek on their wedding day! They had a gorgeous wedding, a beautiful day and tons of family and friends to celebrate with them.

want a portrait session?

*bathtime*

This weekend when I was in Michigan for a wedding I also had a great time visiting family. Luckily I’ve been going back about every 3 months which is perfect timing to also take some photos of my adorable niece. The trip was busy, and I almost didn’t get photos in, but I decided to [...]

an afternoon in Baltimore

This week has been full of adventures and lots of fun. I’ve been doing so much that I’m pretty sure I have a cold now – nothing serious but I think my body def needs some rest. Yesterday was beautiful with Kim + Vince’s wedding in Buffalo, NY and today we were able to dodge [...]

You may remember this photo from Marianne + Derek’s engagement session last summer, which was shot for a save the date for today’s wedding. I’m all for holiday weddings, since it [...]
