A Natural Glow | Pointe of View
When I look at this image, I love the colors of autumn, the beautiful dancer, and the fact that I once took my high school prom photos right next to this gazebo. But the thing I love most is the light. I have always tended toward being a natural light photographer, scouting for light and…

Jenny & Kevin | Second Anniversary | Los Angeles Portrait Photography
Happy Anniversary, Jenny & Kevin! Today is the actual date that marks two years from their wedding. I love that we have an annual tradition of doing a photoshoot together. It’s been so much fun celebrating their relationship over the years and flexing our creativity muscles so that no two shoots are ever the same….

Gothic Reading Room | Pointe of View
Every Monday, I will be featuring an image and backstory from my Pointe of View series. For more, view all these ballerina posts or visit the Pointe of View store. Today’s image is from my alma mater, Duke University. In the quietest reading room of the library, she just walked in and did the splits across the table. Gothic Reading…

Ragini & Brandon | Wedding Album
I absolutely love my new albums from RedTree. Below is a beautiful 8×8″ album in a lovely brown ‘pinecone’ leather. Having the names and date debossed on the front cover is always one of my favorite details. I’ve been busy creating these fine art books lately, and I’m excited to share more of these gems…

Baby Sidney | Chicago Family Portraits
I am so happy to share these images from a family portrait session I did while I was in Chicago. Baby Sidney is such a cutie, and he is just at that stage where he will smile at everything and still looks like a tiny old man. After some morning shots at Lauren and Oren’s…

Cliffs of Moher | Ireland, Part 3 of 3
It rained that night, the second night of our rail tour in Ireland. We had just completed our loop around the Ring of Kerry, and just as we got back to Killarney, the rain came down. We ran under the hotel awning. Back in the hotel room, I swapped my cloth Toms for wellies (rain…

Raquel & Andy’s Wedding Album
Raquel & Andy specifically requested a non-leather album, so this beautiful book with its blue silk cover was the perfect choice for them. We even had it debossed with their names and wedding date. I just love full spreads in these albums. The gutter in the middle is barely noticeable and allows for an uninterrupted…

Sun & Elliot | Alice Millar Chapel | Chicago Wedding Photography
Their story starts with high school prom, but after that, Sun and Elliot went their separate ways and didn’t see or speak to each other for years. They had another chance encounter when they both attended a wedding, but it was still not their time. It wasn’t until a few more years later, when Sun…
