An Intimate Wedding for Three

Some weddings are on a grand scale - everything is larger than life... vast. These are memorable and extravagant and beautiful. Some weddings are intimate - everything is important, special, and beautiful. We enjoyed the special moments found at this intimate wedding including pinky promises, close family, much love, and a spirited baby daughter all in a beautiful family home with white porches, pastural views, and cathedral ceiling sunrooms.

Welcome Baby Wilson

Got a chance to catch up with old friends while capturing them in this precious time as they reform their family around new baby Wilson's arrival. Beautiful!

An Honest Moment

Again, I will share the image that changed me. We got the chance to capture the most beautiful 6-day-old baby girl with her family last week. Mommy looked AMAZING at not even a week out. There were adorable kisses, hugs, snuggles, and laughter. We captured all this; it was beautiful. And then there was this shot - in between shots. The new mother was not posing, was not aware of the camera, was simply and beautifully looking at her new baby daughter who until very recently had only been imagined. There was a stillness and the baby felt it, and settled into the grace of it. And Brian, ever the artist, felt it and snapped this shot. And there it is. The art of that stillness. The weight of that moment. This image reminds me to look at my daughter, now six-years-old, and just as fascinating and special to me as she was in that first week of life. To look at her. And to see her. To breath into that space of stillness and simply love my child.

Basket Full of Love

This beautiful girl is so loved and so lucky. Welcome to the world, wee baby girl.

Making Sunshine

The trick with outdoor photography is not actually the weather. It's the family. This adorable family braved a drizzly afternoon to capture these magical shots. They enjoyed seeing their little boy explore the nature at Terrapin Park and giggle at our silly camera. Dashing between the raindrops, we found the sunshine in their smiles and joy.
