My philosophy . . .

I love working with people who are fun. Genuine. Real. And that’s what my photography is really all about: capturing the real you. I can see the connections between the members of your family and the beauty in each one of you -- and that’s what I want to capture with my camera.

I don’t do the typical matching-outfits portraits, or the canvas-backdrop-strobe-lighting-say-cheese portraits. I don’t want you to worry about having perfect hair, perfect smiles, and the kids on their best behavior. Relax. Have fun. Be yourself. I want to show you your family the way I see it through my lens: happy, beautiful, flawless in spite of the flaws.

So when I show up for your session, you don’t have to do any pretending. Just be real. I like t-shirts and jeans and flip-flops. And jammies. And mussed up hair and lollipop-stained faces. I love hugs and tickle fights and peals of laughter, and snuggles and kisses too. These things are real. This is the way I want to remember my family, and it’s the way I want to help you remember yours.

Party (er, family) of five

Sunday, August 30, 2009

Take a look at this beautiful family and tell me you’re not green with envy that I spent my Saturday morning hanging out with them! We’d had to reschedule our session a couple times, but the third time was definitely the charm. And here is a massive post to prove it — can’t you just feel the love radiating off of them?! I love photographing families!
