Mother Earth

When I shot this I tried to imagine a place where I wanted to be, a place of solitude, wonder, and warmth. Sometimes a studio shoot can feel very cold and dead, I wanted to see if I could create a realm of "earthyness" in it. I think sometimes we all want to escape back to nature, this is my escape.

A Family Out of This World

Every time I shoot this family I like them more and more! They just have this great vibe about them, and such a great unity. I've never seen siblings get along like Kaiden and Kierra do, they were adorable as they goofed around with eachother like bestfriends. It's a bond out of this world! Little Korbin has a lot to look forward to as he gets older! With such great kids it really goes to show that great parents like Kamie and Jeff make the difference. You guys have done such a great job molding your little people :)

Garden and Dave!

What a cool couple! Garden is an old Navy buddy of mine, and I can still remember the days when we would be sitting in the shop chatting away about her hilarious marriage. I remember thinking, "Someday I want a marriage like that." She and Dave have a chemistry that you don't see everyday. It's a perfect combo of sweetness, respect, and humor. They remind me of a TV couple, like a modern day Lucy and Ricky. I told them they should have their own reality TV show, and I meant it! It was such a fun shoot, they had me laughing and although they told me beforehand how "unphotogenic" they are, I must disagree! Thanks Garden and Dave for such a awesome shoot!

Happy 9th Anniversary!

My Family!

What can I say? I love these people! I feel so lucky to have my big brother, sister in law and little nephew live right down the street. After living away from ALL my family for eight years it's so amazing to have them near. I have the best big brother any one could ever ask for, although we may have fought like cats and dogs as kids he's one of my best friends. I look up to him so much, and can't believe what a great family he has made. He chose an incredible woman in Sierra, and I love her like a sister (which I never had, so I'm thrilled!) We've become so close and I admire her so much, thanks Butthead for picking a great one! Oh, and then there's my little Bean! He is the most lovable little guy on earth and I'm so happy I get to watch him grow.

An Epic Love

This love was incredible! I was absolutely honored to shoot this wedding, and although I don't know Brad and Maria, they were the type of people you feel like you already do. The love was so evident between them, I could see it yes, but I could absolutely feel it as well. The way Brad adored Maria, and the way Maria met his gaze every time. It was inspiring to see, and on a personal note, refreshing. The life these two have in front of them will be nothing less than a epic love story. Thanks Brad and Maria, thanks for making me believe again.
