Last year, around the holidays, I got to meet baby Lily, the newest addition for Caitlin and Jeremy. I've been there for their engagement, wedding, maternity session and now for Lily's baby photos! Here are just some of the highlights from our time together as well as a few favorites from their maternity session! Documentary Family Session & Maternity Photos ...
Earlier this year I got to meet Baby Daniel! His parents, Gustavo and Lis, are one of my former wedding couples and it was so wonderful to get to catch up with them and see them step into their new role as parents. One of the things I remember so clearly about working with them for their wedding was how deep and beautiful their love and connection was, and it truly warms my heart to see that that has only...
My absolute favorite thing about my job is being able to follow my couples as they start their families, and over the years as their family grows and changes. The last time I saw Mr. Oliver he was just a baby! Now he's big brother to Evan! It was so wonderful catching up with Amanda and Eric, meeting baby Evan, and seeing what a day in the life looks like for them now! Here are just some of my favorites...
Oops. I've been a little behind on blogging lately. I prepped the next three posts three months ago. But hey, it's a good thing - wedding season has been absolutely nutty this year, a welcome change of pace after 2020, and I've also had a bunch of Life by Brea sessions! So lots of stuff to come to the blog soon! Kicking off this return with the A family! I shot Amanda and Matt's wedding in 2018 and I am so...
This blog post is well overdue, so much so, that baby Thatcher is now almost a year old! Oops. Nevertheless, I'm very excited to share Baby Thatcher's first professional photo shoot on the blog today. I've known his mommies for quite some time. Brides turned friends, Hannah and Meredith originally hired me to photograph their wedding years ago, and then we agreed to never let each other go. Originally the plan was to be there for Thatcher's birth, but covid...
Meet Ben.Ben is my new favorite little person. He's hilarious. He tells wild stories with big gestures, big inflection and big ideas. Meet Ben's family. Consisting of Mama (Rachel), Papa (Binda) and new baby brother Alex. Two weeks ago I spent an hour with Ben and his family for a documentary portrait session. Never have I ever gotten so much from a one hour session than I had at this one. This family is something special. So much love, so much...
I always love my time with the "F" Family. Karen and Thom came into my life in 2013 when I shot their wedding and I've done family photos for them several times since. Karen and Thom were one of the couples that I knew would turn into lifelong friends, and I'm thankful that I get to watch their little family grow and continue to be their photographer for life! Little Miss Kayla has SO much curiosity and is fiercely independent....
The year was 2020. We were in the midst of pandemic uncertainty, and through isolation and minor risk of exposure, we decided to do this session anyway. Juliana was pregnant with their third and final son, and wanted to capture the chaos of her life. The main goal: To capture a portrait of her as a mother and an artist. One of my favorite things about Juliana is that she truly is an artist, and her while her medium may...
Almost three years ago I had the honor of photographing Alyssa and Richie's wedding, and I was so excited to see them again at Richie's step brother's wedding this past summer! When I saw them they told me that Alyssa was pregnant and I'd be seeing them soon for baby pictures <3 Fast forward to this January and I got to meet baby Amelia! It was so much fun getting to hang out with Alyssa and Richie again and watch...
A few years ago I photographed Christine and Matt's wedding at the American Visionary Art Museum in Baltimore. It's so much fun that now I got to document the beginning of this new journey for them as well! Baby Hunter is a sweet little guy and I loved being able to see Christine and Matt in their new roles as parents. Here are just a few of my favorites from our time together. ...
