I am so proud of my friends Jordan and Max. Jordan is off to the Marshall Islands to teach with WorldTeach and Max is off to South Africa with the Peace Corps. I have cherished these last few days with them so much – enjoying food with friends and family, laughing, singing, dancing… here’s to watching the mailbox, and to having two really good reasons to start printing and mailing out my photographs again.
I was happy to enjoy a traditional fourth of July weekend of eating, sleeping, and playing outdoors with my family. Every time we observe this tradition I find myself asking why we don’t do things like this more often. As far as family outings go, it’s hard to beat frisbee, fishing, burgers and boat rides…
All engagement sessions booked before the end of July will get a special price of $85! This includes clothing and location changes. Couples will receive a disc of full-resolution images with the option of ordering from my online gallery or using their favorite photo lab to make prints. Contact me to sign up. Hurry, there are a limited number of sessions available! Click here to see my portfolio.
One of my dearest friends is currently on a plane to Morocco, after a whirlwind of shooting on her documentary over the last few weeks. Throughout the course of assisting her in this work, I have been so deeply moved by the stories and perspectives we’ve heard from every person we’ve come into contact with, and find myself wide-eyed and grateful every day that I have the opportunity to help a friend with such a worthy project. Amina is an absolute powerhouse and has put so much time and effort over the last six to seven months making this idea into a reality, and I am so happy to be able to support someone who, in turn, has shown me so much love and support over the years. The next month and a half will find us worlds apart but working still on this project, which we hope to show to public eyes this fall… until then, I’d like to share a few behind the scenes photos, and my excitement in anticipation of the work to come.
I was really excited to capture Ashley and Robert’s wedding last weekend out at Thunderbird Chapel. The location is incredible, and the wedding coordinators did a really great job getting everything and everyone where they needed to be to make things run smoothly. A beautiful bride, a nervous groom, and a room full of supportive friends and family, many of whom were moved to tears by the ceremony. So much happiness in one day! Congratulations, Ashley and Robert…
May and June are months of rapid growth, everything is fiercely green and storms can whip up out of the bluest skies. These big changes come on so quick that you’ll miss them if you blink, so here’s to staying up late to talk to these pretty gente, and appreciating the ones I love as they leave one by one for the promises of youth and the many corners of the earth…
