This sweet couple brought their dog to their engagement session! Look at her eyes, aren’t they stunning?! I couldn’t get over how beautiful this pup is!

Textures add to the detail of the […]

Emaline turned Three! I can’t believe she is already three. I remember when Narisa was pregnant with her, and it feels like yesterday. This sweet family have been in front of my camera a billion times. I love documenting their special memories and milestones. Narisa always goes all out for the outfits & parties! 🙂 […]

If you know my husband, Philip, then you likely know he loves music. Not just “Rocking out to a good jam”, but the history of music, especially specific bands and time frames. Philip helps me enjoy and learn about Elton John, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, The Beach Boys, 38 Special and many […]
