We had a great time in June photographing these families.  The Challengers are like family but it was nice to meet Kim’s side of the family…the Walker’s.  They were visiting from Winnemucca, NV.  We had drinks, snacks and I had fun bossing them all around.  We just got around to their ordering session because Donovan […]

I’m sure this family was a little nervous to work with me. They have been going to another photographer in town for the last 13 years. They were referred to me by their photographer, and that my friends… is a compliment! I was happy to take care of them. We met ahead of time to […]

This wonderful family just moved to town. They are closing on a home, getting situated in jobs and child care, but found time to get updated family portraits. Little K is almost two and sweet as they come. His smile lights up a room!! His little spirit is so fun, sweet, and loving. I can […]

I was happy to take care of this family as they found me through word of mouth. That is the greatest compliment in my mind. We met to plan a senior session and it turned into a family session. With the recent weather, we had to do some juggling but ended up with a beautiful […]

I met them through working at Micron many years ago. Facebook has allowed us to stay in touch. We have kept in touch over the years with senior portraits, personal goals, little “Richard” and his portraits…we stay connected. I have a very personal connection to this family, still getting to know some of them, but […]

I have known this family for years! They love to hunt, love to cheer on W at his football games, love to cheer on H at her softball games, and they love their dogs (Cori’s Oodles of Doodles). Cori’s heart is huge and she would do anything for anyone. Cori is my Scentsy gal, and […]

The Springer family was so pleased with their sons school portraits that I had done for The Learning Tree, they contacted me to do their family portraits!  We talked about their goals, what worked in their home, their style, their comfort level.  Soon after our “planning session”, a few hours after actually…I went to their […]

I met with Denice for a complimentary consultation, planning session.  We went over her goals, including who she wanted portraits of, final product needs, and a date that worked for their family to have their session.  We kept in contact leading up to her family session on what they were wearing as that is so […]

I met Ryan & Kendra through a mutual friend and loved them right away. Great people! They married later in life and have two amazing little boys! The boys kept me on my toes but I loved every minute of it! Between shoving pretzels in their mouth and drinking juice, we got some great family […]

It’s an honor to be asked to photograph a family from your industry. It is a HUGE compliment to photograph my friends, Jim & Cindy from the award winning commercial studio, Tri-Digital Group! I got to know them through working out at A2O Fitness, they also generously donated to one of our Little Heroes, and we mostly keep up like the rest […]
