“Days can be sunny, with never a sigh Don’t need what money can buy Birds in the trees sing their day full of song Why shouldn’t we sing along? I’m chipper all the day, happy with my lot How do I get that way? Look at what I’ve got I got rhythm, I got music I got my gal Who could [...]

When I met with Sean and Erika to talk about their maternity photos, the thing they both said they loved was nature. Sean told me about small bit of earth with trees, a stone wall and a river. How could I resist….. Meet the beautiful Erika and her dapper husband Sean. I love Erika and Sean’s [...]

Once upon an author in April

I am a total Christmas junky. I think I listen to Christmas music most of the year (I skip it in spring, it feels a bit sacrilegious to remind the earth that it will soon be dying in winter just as it is blooming in spring). These past two weeks in the midst of a [...]

Today starts Katie and Nathan’s wedding week. Katie and Nathan are the kind of friends that I want to hang out with even when I don’t want to hang out with anyone. Katie is a scene from a Willa Cather novel, Katie is a porch on a summer night in the middle of a mint [...]

A dear friend of mine was throwing a party for her husband’s graduation and she asked if I would bring my camera. I love bringing a camera to a party! You get to photograph friends, family, strangers in a setting that promotes joviality and celebration. For those of us introverts you also get to hide [...]

I probably have mentioned this before but I happen to be VERY lucky in the niece and nephew department. 2 nephews, 3 nieces and each happen to be the smartest, most creative and beautiful children you could ever meet (yes, I’m bias and very proud of it)! I was able to spend a lovely afternoon in [...]

It’s still not ready but really I’m working on it! In the meantime, here’s some delicious crushing. Photo by Trufflegirls I just got this print from photojojo and I’m in love with it. [...]

A delightful treat.

Jon and I had the delightful opportunity to stay with friends – Johnny, Lisa, Bruno and Sunny while we were in England. I didn’t get a full opportunity to photograph them but we did steal a piece of a morning in a park where I could snap some shots. We have been acquainted with Johnny and [...]
