Season is for the gal who wants to dress like it matters. These ethically made dresses wear like a dream and are perfect for any season! Jessie Artigue, my pseudo big sister, is the creator of these beautiful dresses and I was so excited to work with her to shoot the new spring color, Lilac!

Steve and Liana have accomplished many cool things in the 28 years they've been married but my personal favorite is creating my favorite human, Kyle Norman (cough cough my husband). And you've guessed it, this sweet duo are my in-laws! ⠀ ⠀ So saying it I was excited when we planned our session is a massive understatement. I had so much fun photographing their beautiful love! Thank you, Steve and Liana, for bringing me into your family and for letting me take your photos! ⠀ ⠀ ⠀
Today I am more excited than a kid canon-balling into a pool on a hot day. And that ‘s because things are looking a little different around the website! For one I have a new logo that I am thrilled with (made by @bredaletters ) and two I am slowly letting my love of gardening take over everything. And I'm not even a little sorry about it because it make me SO happy. If you head over to my website and click around a bit you‘ll see what I mean!
When was the last time that you did something that lit you up inside? Today is the day friend. Get out those paint brushes, go for a hike, call your best friend (yes on the phone). Your life is happening now.⠀ ⠀ Share an emoji of your favorite thing to do on a Saturday!
I often have potential clients ask me how I make couples feel comfortable in front of the camera. There are so many things I could say but when it really comes down to it the answer is simple. I become their friend. ⠀ ⠀ Before I pick up my camera, before we talk about their wedding, before we plan outfits and locations, I get to know them as humans. Over dinner or a cup of coffee, I ask them to start at the beginning and to not leave anything out.⠀ ⠀ The truth is the real beauty of an image comes alive when paired with its context. It is more than perfect outfits and stunning locations that make an image great. It is really about the love of the couple and their story.
I love the ocean. The tide reminds me of the flux of life. The overall water level changing ever so slightly, reminds me of the slow incremental changes of the seasons. ⠀ ⠀ Sometimes the tide is low and things are pregnant with anticipation and tranquility. Other times the tide is high and life is raging against the shore. But all the while, there is the constant cycle of waves. They crash on the sand with excitement then retreat back to the serene vastness, bringing to mind a single day, filled with to-dos, ending in rest, and starting all over. ⠀ ⠀ The ocean, it’s tides, and it’s waves bring me a larger prospective that my daily concerns are temporal. The next wave will come, and the one after that. The tide will rise and fall, over and over. ⠀ ⠀ Our current struggles and joys, though not insignificant, don’t last forever. And there is far more to the ocean than just it’s waves, just as there is far more to life than just the daily ins and outs.
