a fall river wedding | small event photography

I love the energy of weddings! They're celebratory, sacred and full of deep-down emotions. I was so excited to get to photograph Ashleigh and DC's special day. They planned a perfect fall wedding on Magnolia River. Outside, under oaks with a calm river in the yard- what more could you want? Every moment was photo worthy. But, an impromptu hop in the canoe on the dock post ceremony with all their guest standing to watch was sublime. It was like a scene out of a movie! Genuine laughs, smiles, cheers and kisses. I know that they'll remember that special moment on their wedding day forever!



kitchen light | family documentary

I promise I was coming up the stairs as a quiet houseguest emerging into the early morning light without a camera just to immerse myself in new baby and well rested niece land. We had traveled by plane- landing after their bedtime the night before. It was our first glimpse of their faces in a long time.  As soon as I rounded the stairway corner, I saw the incredible sunlight pouring in and couldn't resit. It's alway that photographer fear of, "what I don't get this chance again?". Mmm- go get the camera. Be engaged, but savor the incredible light pouring in, I kept telling myself. It didn't last long, but I love what came of it.
