There was the threat of rain during my time with the Beatties, and...
Little Heroes (Douglas County, Oregon–Custom Photographer)
Did you know that April is Autism Awareness Month? Did you know that autism is the fastest-growing developmental disability in the United States? Did you know that every 20 minutes, a child is diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder. Did you know that 1 in 110 children have autism?

Give Life (Roseburg, Oregon–Custom Photographer)
I used to have a fear of needles.

Meet sweet little Lilly.
She turned 2 months old last week and today she had her third photo session! I’ve been friends with Lilly’s mom, Cary, since we were in preschool and what an amazing friend she has been.
I just knew that Lilly would be born while we were on our family vacation to Disneyland in...
FINALLY! Christmas Kids (Roseburg, Oregon–Children’s Photographer)
I’ve been so busy the last couple months with photo sessions that I haven’t been taking lots of pictures of my own kiddos. So, my mom made a rad skirt for Adds and some coordinating ties for the boys and they were exactly what I had in mind for Christmas pics of my 3 little...
