For a long while now I’ve been wanting to try out film again. The last time I played with film photography was back in high school (*cough, ahem, like 15 years ago) and back then it was all black and white. I learned how to use a camera using film, and not only that we […]

Its been a long time since I’ve done one of my Tuesday Tidbits – my place to share some of the goings on of our lives around here! We’re wrapping up May which means we’ve also officially finished up our first year of homeschool. And it means our not-so-little-anymore Evan has graduated from Kindergarten! I […]

I have a confession to make – I don’t like pictures of myself when I’m pregnant. My body changes and looks so very different that its hard to see past the swelling and the size changes I go through. But this pregnancy I knew that if this was our last baby, I knew I’d want […]

Abe and I have been married almost 8 years now, and its amazing as I sit here and reflect on just how much has changed in 8 years for us. When we got back from our honeymoon, we packed up our car and wedding gifts and drove across the country from Colorado to Virginia to […]

Last year I started up a series I’ve called my Heritage Series. It all started when my Dad sent me an old family photo and asked if I could clean up some of the scratches and signs of age from it, and it made me realize just how much I enjoy not only learning about […]

As Abe and I went out for a date night the other evening, I glanced at Abe and thought about whenever we go out all we seem to do is talk about is our kids (and maybe laugh a little at them too). But as I glanced over at him, my mind suddenly raced back […]

I love reading, but ever since getting pregnant with my first (now six years ago, which is so crazy that its been that long!) reading typically puts me to sleep pretty quick. Its actually kind of embarrassing because I’ll pick up a book and within 5 minutes be ready to fall asleep. In fact, I […]

Happy Tuesday!! I can’t believe we’re already half way through January! We finally had some snow this morning! And it feels like the first snow of the winter season, too! Its been so dry and unusually warm that it was such a welcome change in the weather. Snowy days always make me want to bake, […]

This past Christmas we went to celebrate Christmas with our Wolfgang family way out in East Texas. Its amazing driving to Texas because you can spend all day driving through it and still not leave the state! Road trips are always a gamble to know how well our 3 kiddos will do, but truly they […]

There’s nothing like looking back at a year’s worth of your work, representative of so much – so many friendships made, so many sweet moments captured, and so many goals met! I had so much fun this week pouring through all my sessions starting way back in January through just a week ago. It was […]
