so easy to photograph!

25 custom designed holiday cards!



Jeremy - Senior 2012

Jeremy waited until the

last minute to

book his senior portrait session.
His reason....

he hates having his picture taken!

Well, I beg to differ.

Jeremy was all smiles and even

had a hard time controlling his

laughter when his mom

requested some serious expressions

I had so much fun working

with Jeremy and think we captured some

great images, especially considering he

was less than thrilled to be 

in front of the camera! 

Tis the season!

Have you had your

holiday portraits taken yet?

If not, there is still plenty of time

to book a session with us!

I am currently running a special

Gabrielle's Goth Inspired Session

In honor of Halloween

My beautiful little sister, Gabrielle

Ferrier Family Photos

A few weeks later,

I was able to photography the whole family!

I absolutely love working with Lynnea.

We even got a few pictures in with

the very proud Grandma!

I love these photos!

Miss Jersey Lynn

I was so excited to have my first ever newborn session

and what made it even more exciting was that this precious little girl

belongs to one of my very best friends!

I was able to meet Miss Jersey within minutes of her birth,

of course equipped with my camera...

I just had to capture some of the most precious and intimate moments

 of momma and baby bonding.

Two weeks later we made time for another session,

where we captured more beautiful photos!

I just can't get enough of this sweet little girl,

you'll be seeing a lot of Miss Jersey Lynn around here!

Jerz Family Session

I truly enjoy working with Stephani and her family.

Over the summer

I photographed her son, Parker for his 4th birthday

as well as her daughter, Lauren during the Let's Dance & Co recital

and the Dupree Dance intensive workshops and competition.

Recently, I was able to work with the rest of the family!

Their photos turned out so nice with this beautiful fall setting!



Dupree Dance Intensive and Competition

Recently, I had the opportunity to travel with

Let's Dance & Co to their competition and intensive workshops hosted by Dupree Dance.

Not only was this an incredible event to be a part of as a photographer,

but talk about an amazing experience for these dancers.

Over the course of two days,

these students were able to take intensive workshops and master classes

taught by some of the most talented dancers.

Thank you to both

Let's Dance & Co and The Dupree Dance faculty

for allowing me to be a part of this event.

Devries Family Session

What a busy past few months!

I was able to work with some really fun and sweet people

and I am now getting around to posting alittle about each session on my blog.

Here's a sneak peek from a session with

The Devries Family.



Copyrights & Watermarks

I hate to harp on

copyrights and watermarks but

it seems to be a growing issue.

It is never okay to crop out

anyone's logo or watermark.

The copyright remains with the photographer

unless you purchase the rights. In that case you will receive written

permission to reproduce the images.

Think of it like this

Would you purchase a name brand shirt

then cut out their logo or brand name on the shirt?

I highly doubt it.

It's the same with photography.

Just because you are in the image

does not mean you own the rights to the image.

I appreciate your understanding and support.

Attention Seniors!

Are you graduating in 2012?

Or do you know someone who is?

That's right it's that time of year again!

Don't get caught with the same ol' drab school photos this year.

Many schools require yearbook photos

to be submitted at the beginning of the school year.

Book your session by August 15th

to receive some pretty awesome specials!

I am also currently

looking for some senior reps for the area

Juniors may apply too!

If selected you can qualify for

 free prints, free sessions, great discounts and much more!

Contact me while the weather is perfect

and you have the time to plan and select the perfect image!

For more information on becoming a rep

shoot an email to:

Highlights from Parker's Session

All I can say is

we worked HARD for these photos!

Not only was the heat almost unbearable
during our session but,

Parker was not a fan of my camera!

It took him some time to warm up.

However,

I think we worked through that and captured
some great shots.

Happy 4th Birthday, Parker!

I hope you enjoy the photos.

Highlights from Teagan's Session

I pride myself on making my sessions fun but relaxed.

I also love to hear my clients ideas for the session to help make my sessions more comfortable and to capture all of their personality and style.

Teagan brought so much personality to the photos!

Together I believe we created some beautiful images.

I truly enjoyed working with this family and Teagan was such a sweet little boy!
