You know that moment when you look at someone and instantly feel joy? It is almost like you can feel your heart swelling and melting and soaring all at once. You are captivated, you are in love, you are moved. Maybe for you, you’ve known that when you’ve looked at that elderly woman who always…

Everything about you is wonderful. You are perfectly made, perfectly framed, perfectly put together. The way your eyes gush with being captivated. The clasp of your little fingers around my own. The rising and falling of your chest as you breathe. The slight grin of your lips before the giggle we know…

I've decided it's really important for me to talk more about connection with you guys. If you're anything like me, you're struggling every day finding calm during life with kids. Trying to get them out the door on time in the morning without rushing, encouraging them to relax in the evening for stories, hugs and…

Have you ever seen kindness living in someone’s eyes? It is almost like a subtle flame inviting you to know and trust that there is goodness in the everyday.

And the most amazing thing that we get to fill our walls with are images captured when we’ve spent time with the ones we love the most…

I had a conversation this past week with a mother of three about photography. She received a gorgeous new camera for Christmas from her husband (obviously, he's a keeper!) and was worried about learning how to use it.
