i love people and their stories - i love that a photograph can capture those stories forever - to be celebrated for years to come. when i look back at images from my childhood, or my family, or my wedding, i find myself celebrating those times, those events, and most of all, those relationships. that’s one of the main reasons i began documenting my own family’s life - to capture for them and for me the everyday moments and the extraordinary moments - to celebrate them as i walk up the stairs, work in the kitchen, or relax in the living room.
so i’m the photographer in the family - married to an amazing man who appreciates my love for this art, because he’s an artist himself. andy leads worship at The Harvest Church in Sienna Plantation and writes beautiful, inspiring music. we’ve been married since December 2004 and have two children - kate and jack and two dogs - winston and clementine. altogether, it’s a lovely little zoo that we call home.
i’m a graduate of the university of texas at austin - hook ‘em horns! - where i studied broadcast journalism. i worked briefly in television news and for the United States House of Representatives before taking on the most challenging job yet - full-time mommy, nurse, reader, teacher, feeder, housekeeper, launderer, crafter, nose-wiper, hugger, diaper-changer, park player, and general full-service concierge for the best employers EVER.
i have an unhealthy obsession for all things paper - a need for a once, ok, maybe twice a week, starbuck's pick-me-up, and a not-so-secret wish to live in Anthropolgie.
i love to meet your families and your children and capture their personality, their spirit, their stories - your stories - so you can celebrate them for a lifetime - because life is definitely worth celebrating!
