    September 8, 2016

    I am loving this season’s family sessions! I’ve had the most wonderful time getting to hang with such sweet littles, and patient parents 😉 I like to do sessions a little differently than some expect, and I think it takes a little getting used to since so many people are used to stiff and…

06.30 | Last day of June, soaking in country air at my favorite place 😍 

It’s wonderful to reflect on how this practice brought me back to the basics… I haven’t created non-client/non-iPhone photos in so long. It was a joy to slow down + *play* with color, composition + creating, without an end goal in mind.

As a true portrait photographer, it was a challenge at first to find inspiration in non-human subjects - YOUR energy is such a big part of my work! This practice has retrained my brain + I find myself pausing to enjoy little vignettes wherever I go now 🤩 

It’s a gift to see the world so beautifully + perhaps, you’ll try this too? ♥️
