I've been keeping journals since I was in the 3rd grade and I'm so glad to share some of my most intimate life moments with you here!  Here, you'll find inspirational and encouraging stories of me and other broken people like me. We are all jars of clay who have been afflicted in every way, but not crushed...struck down by not destroyed.  Here, you do NOT have the right to remain silent, so as you read, grab your favorite snack and drink and leave a comment...share YOUR story. I can't wait to connect with you in this beautiful safe space. 

welcome to my

journal!

MY GO TO PORTRAIT LENS | WHAT’S IN MY BAG?

Before I start this blog, let me say that the gear does not define the photographer. While I do love my equipment and believe in investing in my business, the truth is, I didn’t start with the equipment that is in my bag now. It’s my passion for people and my passion for what I do that helps […]
