A couple months ago, I offered a contest on Facebook to folks who were interested in doing a “Girlfriends” shoot. I got the idea from another local photographer, here in Tacoma, Lindsay Brooke, and wanted the opportunity to showcase my own set of girlfriends. There is nothing like a good set of girlfriends: who hold […]

It was right after Escalate Live and Isaiah and I had spent some time during the days livestreaming some of the greatest photographers: learning an soaking up their advice. We […]
Never shot a baby before… I mean with a camera; until today. With my PIC: Cheryl Bidleman of Studio 57 Images & my handsome husband behind the D5000–we went to work with 1 month old baby Phinley. Here’s a quick video to show you how it all went down.
What happens when the thing you never thought would happen does? What happens when you unexpectedly get sick? What happens when someone you love falls ill or even worse dies? What happens when a natural disaster hits and destroys everything you've worked so hard to build? What happens when you become ill or paralyzed and are unable to run your business? What happens when you find yourself in a global pandemic and you're unable to work for months at a time? What are you going to do?
When we first started shooting, we couldn't afford many of the opportunities and workshops that were available for newbie photographers to learn and grow, so we really utilized the free communities online and locally to building relationships and to learn the trade. It was those years that shaped who we are as people in this industry and have helped us to value the journey.
