Tim and Michelle
On June 19, I had the great pleasure of photographing Tim and Michelle’s wedding, located in Turners Falls, MA, alongside the talented Keri Lynn. This couple was awesome- their day was full of laughter, warmth, and affection between them and everyone around them. I had the fun job of photographing Tim and his groomsmen while they were getting ready. From the time I arrived I knew it was...

Two dogs, a Tub, and a Tough Toddler
A classic, metal twin wash tub in a Vermont thrift store gave me the cutest idea for an all-American classic photo. Picture it: muddy denim overalls on the ground, red barn in the background, cute little boy in one side of the tub, his faithful dog in the other side- both covered in soap suds as they get their outdoor bath and scrub down. Sounds kind of adorable, right? And I knew where to get...

Relay for Life
One of the most rewarding things a person who loves his or her job can do is to donate their time and knowledge of their craft to a cause they believe in. I recently had the opportunity to volunteer a little of my time to a great cause- Relay for Life. Relay for Life is an event that is sponsored or hosted by communities all across the country and 20 other nations that gives people who have been...

Old Fashioned Lemonade- a Wedding Workshop with...
Last week I had the great fortune of assisting Justin & Mary Marantz during an engagement portrait session with couple Deanna and Dini at a marina in Connecticut. It was a beautiful evening with soft light, and the couple could not have been cuter! I didn’t get to do any shooting during this session, since Justin & Mary had that covered- but I helped carry camera gear and got to...
The Coolest Jewelry Store in America
Today is going to be a super full day! In the morning I am revisiting the Don Muller Gallery, of Northampton, MA. The owner, Don, was kind enough to pose for an occupational portrait for my final school portfolio (the image is below).
He liked the portrait and ended up using it in an ad for his store, which I thought was pretty cool. Then I got an email a few days ago saying that his store...

A Day at the Beach
I’ve always wanted to live by a beach… I love the ocean. Something about it is so calming, peaceful, and nostalgic. Too bad my home state of Missouri is about as dead center in the middle of the country as you can get! The Mississippi river and a few of our lakes have some sad little beaches, but really those don’t count. So a few weeks ago I was really excited to have my...
Toy Cameras and the amazing Lois Greenfield
Nothing beats stepping out of the box. I love portraiture, and weddings are lots of fun, but I think every photographer enjoys sometimes forgetting all the technical do’s and dont’s and just creating cool looking pictures- fine artsy pictures, if you will, and just shooting for themselves! Several times this year in the middle of all my overwhelming stress with school, I took just an...
Experimental Fun
Really playing, stepping out of our comfort zone, and trying new things during a photo shoot is awesome fun, and often something we are afraid to do when we are working for a client. So working with a great model on a shoot that is just for me is a great freeing experience and a chance to really experiment and play around! After purchasing an overstock fur-trimmed winter wedding gown from a local...

New York, New York
A few more pictures from NYC! I’m not shooting too many photo sessions this week and next since my school classes have ended, and everything is wrapping up before graduation: packing, getting prints and DVDs to clients, assisting other photographers here and there. So I am taking the chance to blog a few photos from recent sessions that I didn’t get to post anywhere else. In keeping...

Kate & Carson
Hello world! So this is my very first attempt at a blog post- here we go! What better way to start my blogging career than with some images of a dear old friend- Kate, and her boyfriend Carson. They met up with me a few weeks ago for a windy afternoon shoot in High Line Park in NYC. After a few shots with just Kate, we got into full couple shoot mode. They were a great, fun couple to...
