Year in Review Thank you so much for a wonderful year. The move from Norman, Oklahoma was bittersweet. I have loved putting our new roots in Mullica Hill, NJ. South Jersey has been so exciting and welcoming. It feels like home now. Thank you for stopping by; and don’t forget to see the exciting news at the bottom! So if you’re a creative… go and take a peek over at...
I remember this little lady when I moved to Norman 7 1/2 years ago. She was an awesome mother’s helper with her 2 younger brothers. I immediately hit it off with her incredible parents. Her mom is a talented musician and so gorgeous as well as kind and thoughtful. Her dad is a suuuuper smart developer, and always willing to answer my silly techie questions. He is good at anything...
If you haven’t seen the joyous images of Caleb’s birth, go see his hospital pictures here, and read about his angel brother here. One of my very favorite pictures I have taken is over on my facebook page profile image, Shad handprint on dad’s hand. So small and delicate. It was a special experience to photograph this sweet boy with special items that I have photographed over the last 15 months....
One thing that has been so exciting to me is to submit my beautiful sessions to be published online and in magazines. It’s thrilling. But I have to say the wait just kills me!! They want fresh content that is exclusive, which means no sharing before being published. I am happy to finally share these darling images from a session that I did with my adoption series. My husband joined...
If you have been following my photography for the last year and a half you may have seen the beautiful face of a sweet boy born at 23 weeks in August of 2014. He lived 6 hours. Read about his delivery here on my blog, or here in a session I did for the family, or here where his story was shared once more. I am so happy to say with...
Earlier in 2015, I was selected to be part of an amazing project for adoption.com. I had so many people nominate stories about adoption on my facebook page, and I could only choose one! After talking with my husband, I decided I wanted to share more stories than just one. I’ve now been blessed to meet a number of families now whose lives have been blessed with adoption, and I...
There are some people who are so neat that you just want to be near them. Sue is one of those mommies. I met her first when my sons were going to the same Mother’s Day Out that her kids were, and she was pulling up to the doors with energetic smile and full of energy pushing a stroller in front of her. She lived fairly nearby and chose to walk...
*Update: Today is momma and daddy’s 4th wedding anniversary! And best friends for 9 years. Happy Anniversary Marlena & Clint! If any of you follow me on facebook you may have seen some of my posts about my husband’s blog. Go check it out if you haven’t; it’s filled with inspiring stories and spreads goodness in the world. He’s become a wonderful writer, and I hope you enjoy him. As...
Are you ready for some adorable newborn images? How about with a fall theme? This momma is in LOVE with everything fall, so I bought things to make some beautiful creations for her. This little man has a very special name, Maks. At the newborn session mom explained it was a combination of their initials and September, since he was due in September. But who would have known he’d come 3...
Who are the beautiful mothers in your life? Who quietly plugs along, bringing joy and peace to others without calling any attention to herself? A few months ago I was chosen to be part of a Beautiful Mothers project. I received my copy shortly before my babe was born, and I am in love– so many powerful examples of wonderful women. I wish I knew them all personally. But I...
