S T O R M


















The pounding of rain and wind beats down on the roof, excitement pounds in my heart. Never mind the days and weeks of drizzling rain. Sudden sideways wind and hard storming rain forming braided rivers down streets, where by only those donning rain umbrellas, boots, and parkas dare venture out.... fascinating! Amidst the normally buzzing city lie empty streets where the only sign of life are golden windows and the occasional wafting of baking goods. Fleeting storms like yesterday's inspire life in me. These images posses their own language, of short fall and winter days, and the sharp contrast of cold and hot, wet and dry, but beyond that those feelings and emotions that we struggle to explain. The tangible and intangible changes we undergo during the earth's metamorphosis each year.

Dark Night Downtown Double 40th Party














I love photographing people as they exist especially when their inhibition subsides. Light, Darkness, Dramatic Textures, Dramatic Expressions, and Flappers. It's the greatest gift to be able to really use my creative vision and photograph people. Thanks to everyone who honors and appreciates my visual story.

Siena's Debut Into The World











Siena was a quintessential darling little client! Capturing her tiny details and loving family tenderness warmed my heart. Newborns still curl up their bodies and take the form they held for all those months tucked safely inside. When I saw this silver vessel I just had to tuck Siena inside it. She was actually awake, but once tucked inside she curled right up and drifted off to sleep. Babies are such wonderful reminders to live in the present, be grateful for all the little moments we are given. It's these moments that help carry us through those moments of sadness and loss. It's a beautiful circle of life. Thanks for sharing little Siena's with me!

Sweet Six Month Macie!
















Little Macie stole the show with her charm and innocence! This darling gem was the epiphany of tiny clients. Honest, raw, excitement beaming through her twinkling doe eyed espressions. Chubby little baby fingers and toes do wonders for any wintertime blues. These are just a few of my all time favorites! Thank you for sharing your sweet pea Macie with me!
