WHY . REMEMBER

  Funny reactions of a five year old.  Toothless six year old grins.  Days with family.   Running in from the rain.

Everyday moments are the bestest.

WHY NOT .

Get your closest girlfriends together (or mom and sisters), call me up to book the studio for a photoshoot with me and the fabulous Alana for your makeup.  I guarantee a super fun, memorable day together.

And planning a night out on the town together after would be recommended.  Since you will all feel and look amazing, why not?!   xo

IN OUR HOMES.

  You know how sometimes what you hope for actually happens?  When certain things you have always wanted to do actually fall into place?

Over the past few months of client sessions, I have had more and more families willing and wanting to incorporate part of their sessions into their homes.  I feel like there is a real shift in understanding the value of what building a house  home means and I am thankful to all of my clients who appreciate this along with me.

Next time you are thinking of a session, try not to be limited to the pretty leaves or brick walls.  As lovely as that is, ask yourself who your family is and how we can capture that the best.

We have played games, read books, ran through garages and cuddled our dogs.  What more could we ask for?

THANKFUL .

  Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace, and gratitude.

Happy Thanksgiving weekend to friends and family, near and far.  xo
