The tradition lives on! This is the fifth Haymarket session with this vibrant crew, and therefore the fifth remake of this photo! 2015, 2019, 2022 and 2024. The height changes are shocking, but I love this sweet way of seeing their family grow up. Beautiful kiddos! Lucy has a fierce strength that is hard to […]

Another year of having a total BLAST photographing and running around with these boys! I’m not sure you’ll find cuter brothers. They are up for anything that involves being on the move! Energy like Jaxson’s and Beckham’s calls for fun, laid-back parents and they’ve got ’em. AJ and Madeline know how to roll with it. […]

It was a riot capturing all this family’s joy and high energy! Hudson brought his A-game with way more than 20 questions and at least as many ideas, and Mae gave me all her cute raised eyebrow stares before bursting into her show-stopping grin. Matt and Abby, your family is perfect! Full speed ahead! Isn’t […]

It’s stand-out families like these that make me reflect in the best way on how many years I’ve been at this work of photographing people with their favorite people. It sneaks up on me, that number, growing slowly and steadily all the time. ๐Ÿ™‚ The first time I got to work with Justin and Melissa’s […]

Charlie and Ashley and their sweet kiddos always pack a punch when it comes to family photos! They are wonderfully playful, good-natured, and full of personality and style. What more could I ask for?? Both of these children went from little kids to big-enough-to-see-the-adult-in-their-faces since I last saw them. Does this happen with all kids, […]

Sometimes blogging completely takes a backseat to other things, and while I may be oh, almost a *year* late for this one, that doesn’t make it any less special. In fact, its personal nature probably has something to do with my putting it off – wanting to do it justice and not just quickly check […]
