Why I Do This

Some of you reading this may know me personally, but probably many of you don't. While I have always *loved* the arts in all forms and fashion and have played around with photography for many years, I really stumbled into this career not very long ago. My background is in business, specifically marketing. But, I knew as soon as I started taking portraits of children that I had come "home."

I love what I do. I can't express enough to you how much I love it. Every day I think I'm the luckiest person alive because I get to do what I do. (No, really. It's true!)

So, when I get feedback from clients that tell me they love the photographs I've taken of their child, my entire soul smiles.

The following paragraph came to me from Lori, who is Sydney's mom. This means so much to me:

I could say “phenomenal” or “exquisite” or “priceless” or “extraordinary”…but all the superlatives in the world seem insufficient. Of course, I am partial to the subject matter, but the skill with which you have captured the personality and beauty of my daughter (and my family) is simply amazing. These images are gorgeous, and believe me with all your heart when I tell you that they will be treasured by my family for a lifetime.

In return I say thank you for giving back so much joy in my life. This is why I do this.
