Images from a session with the McClearys, both sets of in-laws, and special appearances by Bernese Mountain Dog, Carson, and Rhodesian Ridgeback, Waldo. I say more folks should do portraits with adult families. And dogs.

Images of 15-year-old Ryder, a handsome and sage fellow, Australian Shepherd Daisy, and their family.
Melissa and Chris had a really beautiful intimate ceremony followed by a heck of a party, with a few winter portraits sandwiched in-between. Such a lovely winter wedding, and such lovely people.

On this pre-Christmas Friday I’m very much looking forward to seeing and spending time with some of my very favorite people and to a restorative week.
A very happy holidays to you and yours.

Spending an hour with 7-week-old Salvador did nothing for this case of puppy fever I can’t seem to shake.
One day a few weeks ago I washed our dogs. Then Roux did living room laps until she dried while I blow dried Prada, which took two hours. By the end of it she looked so pretty I took her portrait.

Oh, the Mayvilles.

Neither Julie, who organized and hosted this event, nor I knew what to expect from A Day to Shine. We knew we believed in its mission, though: to arm women who have or have had cancer with the one thing that proves elusive to all women: self confidence.
Images from a visit with some White Shepherds.
Robyn and Jim got married at the top of the world—literally and figuratively.
Sadie and Sam love to ask me about how my husband proposed, what the wedding was like, what being married is like. Sadie said, you have to have a good story so you have something to tell your kids. How right she is; how important your story is.
Here’s a snippet of the Grimm’s story, in pictures.
These little guys were on the move from the get go. Wild kids are my favorite kind.

Images from a Colorado fall evening spent with Jolee + her parents. {And a new little baby brother on the way!}
We got a chance to get to know Matt + Racquel in the months leading up to their wedding doing first this engagement shoot, then this one, and this engagement video. And as wonderful as those were, nothing compared to their wedding day.
Images from a session with the regal Zoe [Akita] + her goofy little brother, Ozzie [Greater Swiss Mountain Dog] at their Colorado mountain home. Also, a few images schemed up for a holiday card.
A few images from Chris + Meghan’s lovely fall wedding.
Lily and Nora love their horses in a way that only a fellow horse-enthusiast can truly understand. And Ethan, well, Ethan rolls with the punches.
Boudoir might literally translate to ‘bedroom,’ but I don’t think boudoir photography should be contained there. Images of a boudoir session with the lovely and daring N, in the woods, with guns.
Collette is a bad ass little dog. Brandon + Christie are her equally cool human counterparts.
Hudson is a 7-year-old, 3-legged Great Dane with the kind of grace so many dogs have and so many people find elusive. He’s got a cancer diagnosis too, but you’d never know it. He’s a handsome boy, and a happy one, too.
Matt + Racquel‘s wedding was a rousing good time. Here’s proof.
Images of a summer afternoon with Tawnya + her boys.
Images from Julie + Eric’s lovely wedding in the farmlands of Ohio. Beautiful folks and a beautiful day to be married.
Sometimes I like to think Roux seeks out the best light in the house at any given time and lays in it, waiting for me to catch on and take her photograph.
Sisters Sophie & Phoebe. I can’t help but feel a real affinity for them both; there is the same number of years between them as between my sister and I, and I can so easily remember the whimsy of that age.
Roux and Prada, Todd and I : a quintessential fall day in the heart of America.
It’s thrilling that Deviree is expecting her first baby, and was lovely to see so many of my dear clients in one place.
