I love that being a family photographer means I get to hang out not only with some amazing other moms, but I get to meet their sweet families, too.

Jessica and I have known each other since we were nine years old, growing up in Castle Rock together and living just a few streets apart from each other.

We made our way back to the parking lot, through the Franktown fields and old farmhouse buildings–long standing vacant and quiet but beautiful in their history and age. The breeze gently blew across the fields, warmed by the plentiful sunshine. I walked along with Tanya, and watched on as John chased his baby girl through […]

Sekrit Theater was our first stop down in Austin for Jordan and David’s engagement session in Austin, TX! I was so surprised at how much space we had to work with – we didn’t even explore the whole area before we headed off to our second location. But talk about variety – greenhouse, fences, trees, […]
