Here are the details for my Christmas sessions this season! The custom cards I’m using this year are beyond adorable!!! There is a $200 non-refundable (but it is transferrable) deposit required at the time of booking. The remaining balance can be paid on the date of your session. Email me and I’ll happily send you the cards you will be selecting from! They are super fun :) I have decided to limit my Christmas mini-sessions to 6 slots this year, so be sure to get on the list before they fill up!!

Hello friends! I know it has been a VERY long time since I have blogged and I am truly sorry from the bottom of my heart. You all mean the world to me and I appreciate you being so patient while I gather sessions to post. Time has seemed to slip right by me with everything that has happened over the last few months. Without going into lengthy detail, I know many of you that read my blog are well aware of what has been going on with my family and for those of you that aren’t, I will briefly say that the past few months have been a whirlwind of emotion for our family while we deal with the diagnosis and almost near-loss of our newborn daughter. I felt like someone came and kicked my legs out from underneath me and while I have been very busy with photography related work (editing AND shooting), I have found that my blogging has taken a back burner and so I apologize for that. SO many of my amazing clients have sent us cards and emails and long heart-felt phone calls with well wishes for both of our daughter’s, each of whom are fighting their own medical battles and you have touched our hearts so deeply that mere words could never express our gratitude. How can you say thank you to a client that calls you and sits on the other end of the line while praying both for and with you? I just don’t know how I became so blessed to have such incredible clients, but I am incredibly, INCREDIBLY grateful. The outpouring of love and support is still reverberating in our home. Life is so full of curve balls sometimes, but it makes things much less abrasive when you have good people on your side!

Life has not slowed me down, though. My work has kept me extremely busy and I am so thankful to have been shooting throughout all of the chaos. It was my outlet and in many, many ways a saving grace when I needed to clear my head. I have several sessions that I will be posting, but I just wanted to give everyone a quick update. If you are not my friend already on Facebook, please add me. You can read Finley’s story there and rather than bog down my blog with the details, I felt it was better posted there.

I am headed to New York City this weekend to shoot an engagement session and I’m very excited to be shooting in the city! There will be much more to post! God bless you all!!
