It’s been a beautiful season of fall family photography here at Reflections. Here is a glimpse at one family’s journey with me through several different seasons of their life.

Raise your hand if you are also obsessed with all things enneagram?! 🙋‍♀️ I’m a 3, otherwise known as the “Achiever”. I’m confident, ambitious, and goal-oriented.

Sometimes we have to choose to play it safe or take a risk. I took a big risk today! I enrolled in a mentorship with Brittany Elise Photography. I chose to get out of my comfort zone. I decided to take the risk because even though I’ve spent 15 years building this business, I will always be a student. There is always more to learn. It isn’t easy to run your…

I can barely decide what to make for dinner tonight, so the question about where I want to be in five years is always tricky. Here’s what I do know: My four kids will be 15, 17, 18, and 25. My youngest will be starting high school and our fun and silly time together will be much more limited. Driving lessons will be scheduled, and we’ll probably have a…

Spring and fall family portrait sessions are some of my most popular sessions. I realized that I wanted to focus on newborn & family photography early on.

No one in the world cares as much about the life you live, the work you create, and the dreams you chase, then you. So you might as well go live the life you love, create things you love, and work on things you are passionate about. Push past what others might think is even possible. And create a life you love. This is Shayna, Tom, and their kids…
