We finish up our Street Team blogs with Victoria, a 2013 senior from Bellarmine HS with a incredible fashion sense and amazing rock star style. We loved shooting Victoria, her style, her energy! She’s such a blast! I love Victoria’s sense of style, the girl can dress and her energy that can be felt through […]
Morgan is a doll! I have had the joy of knowing her for 3 years and watching her grow and mature. One thing that rarely happens with our high school seniors, is that I have gotten to shoot them prior to their senior pictures or have as deep a history with them, because of our […]

I just came back from one of the most AMAZING experiences of my short photography career. Last week, I had the opportunity to spend 3 days with the amazingly talented and gifted Promise Tangeman at the Sitehouse Go Live Event. What is this event I speak of?? Well, Promise, her team and the folks over […]
So highly anticipated, so much emotion, so much joy. One month ago today, Isaiah and I and two of our closest friends (Annie Garner of Let It Shine Photography, Idaho & Lloryn Hubbard of Lloryn Louise Photography, Seattle) set out to shoot the biggest wedding of our short careers. Big for many reasons: international love […]
After a VERY exciting month of anticipating this moment, I could not wait for last Sunday to get here. It could not have come faster if you ask me. All the preparation , all the planning and all the excitment surrounding one of the most important annoucements of our lives our gender reveal party, girl […]
There is VERY little I can say about Emma except, wow! That amazing fire red hair and those bright blue eyes….. a photographer’s dream! Emma is SO talented. A painter, a photographer, a dancer…. I am always blown away by these awesome and AMAZING seniors who find us. We spent a very cold and ALMOST […]
Why it took me so long… I will never know, but this session just makes me jump with joy! This family, these girls, these colors, these outfits… omgeeeee. After this session, which happened back in November, I desperately wanted a girl and had NO IDEA I’d be pregnant, after seeing these four sweet sisters, could […]
I love this job! I love the different people I get to meet and the different places I get to see. I met Christin a couple weeks ago in Houston, after she signed up for our mentorship, but we’ve been connecting and chatting for most of 2012 via Twitter and Skype. One day online she […]
Sometimes you just need to get out and burn the film…. or in my case, the CF card. Just shoot… free shoot. Experiment with posing, with lighting, with editing- so if you see like a million different types of editing techniques here, just know that I was exploring, playing, stretching, seeing what was available to […]
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.
