Photography is one of the most powerful things on Earth. It can freeze a moment of time; a moment in the life of your family.   Your children will never be this age again.  You can’t recreate the memory of this life growing inside of you.  That tiny newborn baby will only be this small once.  You only graduate from high school once.  You only live in this amazing location, with your beautiful family at this stage of life, one time (maybe :))  I love the fact that now, as a photographer, I can capture some of these moments for you, and give you a way to remember them forever.  

I have two small children, so if you tell me that your little one is rambunctious and won't sit still for photos, I'm not worried - at all.  I like to have fun during the session and I encourage silly behavior, singing, dancing, and jumping up and down during the sessions.   I consider it high praise when a husband, at the end of a shoot, turns to me and says, "That was actually pretty painless!" It's an honor for me to have such loyal clients and to see their families and relationships grow year after year.
