August 15, 2012pressure
August 9, 2012Not gonna lie, it’s always a bit of pressure when photographing other photographers. It’s even more pressure when you know they drove five hours to have you photograph them. But, then you get over it and realize how excited and grateful you are to photograph such beautiful and ahhhhhhsome people. Nicole is a photographer up yonder in Northern Michigan and can see her eye candy here. Nicole, you and your family rock. So happy to have crossed paths with you :)

insecure
August 1, 2012You’re insecure,
Don’t know what for,
You’re turning heads when you walk through the door,
Don’t need make-up,
To cover up,
Being the way that you are is enough,
Everyone else in the room can see it,
Everyone else but you…
Anyone who has turned on the radio in the last six months has heard this One Direction song. Why am I singing it for you now? Because I can’t stop giggling as I think about the entire Willard family getting their photogenic on by singing this song together. And dancing. Needless to say, I was thoroughly entertained the entire session.
I’ve been talking to Kelli and Shane via the internet for a long time now, and we were finally able to meet for the first time during my trip to Utah. They are the kind of people that make you feel like a better person just for crossing paths with them. What a cool, awesome, rad, fantastic family. And they have awesome clothes :)
And finally, a mini session on how to model from the model divas themselves…

bedrooms and studios
May 17, 2012Can I have your bedroom for my studio? Yes, I asked them that. And yes, they laughed nervously.
Just LOOK at the fun I could have in there.



See more of this family, and their luscious light and decor from their newborn session HERE.

May 17, 2012revisiting
May 15, 2012This baby girl’s newborn session was a huge light bulb moment for me. It was at her house that I finally gave myself permission to shoot they way I loved to shoot…instead of how I thought everyone expected me to shoot. And guess what, others told me to keep doing it. So, I am. And I love my job so much for it. So, get out there and do what you love…and others will love you for it :)
