I am a Mom. Which means that I often don’t have time to pamper myself. I will run to the grocery store without make up and wearing faded yoga pants because we are out of milk. Most mornings are about getting everyone out the door on time and not about styling myself from the pages…

I’m not a huge Photoshop Fan. I think that mainstream media have pushed the image of the “perfect” woman to a dangerously distorted idea. I embrace the beauty of my clients. I think that real women eat sandwiches, laugh lines are beautiful and that over perfecting photos create plastic subjects. There does come a time…
Friday night was the annual “Girls’ Night Out” at my daughter’s school. Each year the Third Grade teachers put on a fabulous party for the girls and allow parent a few hours for shopping or a dinner alone. My girls have always loved attending the GNO. This year I offered up my Photo Booth for the event….
My first career was teaching. I taught in three different elementary schools from the fall of 1997 through the spring of 2002. Teaching was a mixed blessing for me. I loved my students…while staff meetings–not so much. I taught at a tough school, I taught at a wonderful school. I had a supportive principal, I…

Tis the Season for Family photos! I’ve been busy with family portraits the last few weeks. Wednesday afternoon I had the pleasure of capturing this young family. Miss Rivers is just 7 weeks old and a living doll! I love black and white family portraits! Mother and child Proud Papa Rivers is such a little…
Shooting a family session is so much fun when I know the family. Gaby (the youngest daughter) is in my Brownie Troop and I’ve had the pleasure of leading her for 3 years now. So when Ileana told me they needed Christmas pictures I knew this would be a great session. Here’s my Beautiful Brownie Classic Claudia…
I always love having multiple generations at a family photo shoot. I know that I am biased because my grandparents have always had such an important part of my life. When Justin asked if I could shoot his entire family the week of Thanksgiving I was excited to put them on my schedule. (and note folks–Justin…
It’s Small Business Saturday. Yeah, until this week I hadn’t heard of it either. It’s a great idea though. Our ecomony is not as fat as it used to be. We all are figuring out ways to make our dollar stretch further. I know as a small business owner I can not compete with the large portrait…
