The Person

Well first of all, I try not to take myself too seriously so it's hard for me to think so hard about what I want to say about myself!  I grew up in Florida with a large family of nine kids. My enitre family has Art running through their veins. My G-pa was a professional photographer (old school), Mom and Dad both have artistic qualities, and I think all of my sibblings have a knack for being creative one way or another! So here I am, married with children and wondering how in the world am I going to channel my passion into something beautiful, productive, fulfilling, and find bliss all at the same time!? But seriously, I sometimes feel like my photography is like my drug, ha ha ha. I am 5 years married with two sweet boys, 3 and 18 mo. (I'm going to have to keep that updated...). I love my family dearly, I love my beliefs and going to church, I'm a good girl, and I never INTEND to offend anybody :) Sarchasm is non-existant in my blood, so I can get very confused around it sometimes, but that's okay.

The Photographer

Why Photography?  Oh goodness, I need an outlet, I LOVE people, I love love, and I LOVE adorable little baby fat rolls. I HAVE to create, I can't breathe without that.  Though being a full time mom and homemaker takes up most of my time and energy, I just can't keep myself from obsessing and dreaming about being an amazing wedding Photographer.  Over the past 3 years in the wedding industry, I feel like I've become a regular wedding junkie!  By recognizing the latest styles and wedding trends, I am prepared to capture everything that was unique and beautiful at your wedding and wrap it all up into an amazing timeless package.  And that amazing package is the work of art you will walk away with when the day is all said and done.  How well do you want to remember?

Weekend Getaway!

Well, I spent this last weekend with my chicks! ALL WEEKEND LONG was spent talking, and talking, and more talking! I kept pausing to think, oh my gosh, we all just stayed up until 3-4am talking and here we go on…talking! Well, I guess that’s just what happens when you get a bunch of girls together who all have at least one thing in common: photography. Anywho, we had a blast, and I enjoyed getting to know these fellow photographers.
We did manage to get down to the beach once or twice a day to walk and take some headshots of eachother! thank you to all of you for playing with my head-strappy thing, I love it, but I just realized how funny it will be for everybody to be wearing the same thingy in all of these pics. Anywho, you all rocked it in your own beautiful way!

I wished I had more to show, there were probably double the amount of people in all, but pictures were being taken randomly, and I didn’t get a chance to attack everybody. Thanks girls for the fun weekend, and thank you Sara for the Beach house!
