an immovable refuge
Clinging to this today, and praying for friends dealing with an excruciating loss. The Lord is God and he is good. No matter what.

the deans family
Blog, meet Jeff, Laura & Landon. Lovely people, aren’t they? I certainly think so. We spent a fun afternoon together, chasing after the little man as he satisfied his curiosity, walking down lots of steps and picking out the family Christmas tree. This picture is my favorite. I’m not entirely sure why, but I love […]
the norris family
This is how I feel about winter… …so I couldn’t blame little Evie one bit for shivering during our shoot last weekend. The air had a little snap to it. But my goodness, this girl, and her parents, too, for that matter, were such troopers. They didn’t seem to mind the cold and looked gorgeous […]
the clark family
What can I say about the Clarks? Tom and Ruth are wonderful friends. I’ve known them for a few years now and they are generous, fun, thoughtful and they thoroughly enjoy people. Their sweet Lydia Jane is just that. So sweet. Thanks for spending the afternoon with me sitting around a park and playing with […]
the le family
Say hello to the Le family! These three kids know how to have major fun. I’m not surprised at all, because I have the pleasure of knowing their dad (he’s my boss!) and I can’t imagine his family would be made up of anything less than energetic, life-loving, full throttle people. I mean, three mohawks […]
my mother's mother
My last post was on my wedding anniversary. About an hour after posting it, I got a phone call from my parents and found out that my grandma, the one I visited back in May, had taken a turn in her health and wasn’t doing well. They were getting on a plane to go see […]
the judd family
Meet Amy, Jason & Hudson! A few weeks ago, I nervously watched the weather every morning wondering if these photos were going to be shot in the bitter cold of an approaching winter. Instead, we were blessed with what was probably the last warm day of the year. It was beautiful outside, and these three […]
hello yellow utah
Last weekend, David and I flew to Salt Lake City, Utah to visit my brother Mark and his fantastic wife Jenna. They’ve lived there over a year and I was dying to see and experience their day-to-day life and see what everyone kept telling me was a “really cool, clean city with super wide streets”. […]
trey is one! today!
Happy birthday, little man! A few weekends ago, I got to spend a lovely (only slightly chilly) afternoon with this family again. I love, love, love working with clients a second time. It’s so relaxed and fun. These guys are total naturals. I’ll take pictures of Smiths anyday! My fave. Trey took a little spill […]
second blogiversary
I feel old – like I’ve been around the block a few times. My blog turned 2 on Sunday! I’ll admit I feel a little proud of the fact that I’m still blogging. I didn’t know how long I’d stick with it when I started two years ago. It was really awkward at first, sharing […]
nebraska foodie
My awesome, entrepeneur-minded friend had this great idea to start his own blog and write about all the cool things happening in Nebraska that centered around food. Because believe me, Nebraskans love their food. And there’s a growing number of them that appreciate really really good food. Tyler’s idea, Nebraska Foodie, is the blog that […]
in the works
The only reason I haven’t shared a suspenseful teaser of my latest project yet is because I didn’t want to make people sit in agonizing anticipation for too long. That…and I forgot until now. Coming Monday – my good friend Tyler is launching a new blog and I’ve been busy tweaking and styling the site. […]
five courses for as many years
So, my sister and her husband (you’ve met) celebrated five years of marriage a few weekends ago. Doesn’t that seem like a long time these days? I think so. They are awesome and love each other greatly and just have a cool story of their life and the things God has done in it. They’re […]
what i've been up to
This post probably should’ve gone up Monday, but my site was down. Thanks GoDaddy! Anyhow, my weekend was the most productive I’ve had in a long time, which incidentally means it wasn’t too restful. Sometimes you have to choose one or the other. As tired as I was Monday, it felt good to spend the […]
we took a trip: part 3
We made it to Boston! The last two days (Saturday and Sunday) were spent here and overall it was quite nice. We had some light rain the first day, but nothing we couldn’t sit out in a nice little bakery or walk through under a polka dot umbrella. We did learn that Boston isn’t such […]
we took a trip: part 2
Picking up where I left off on Part 1, after a fantastic, albeit short, visit to Portland, we hit the road and headed downeast (i.e. northeast) to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park (both located on Mount Desert Island). This was the pace of our trip. We spent a fairly short amount of time at […]
we took a trip: part 1
Yes, David and I did indeed go to Vacationland. I have wanted to go to Maine for as long as I can remember. I used to beg my parents for a New England vacation, and we just never ended up there. I was stoked when David and I found reasonable tickets and decided to go. […]
