reiley makes senior pictures effortless! i loved every minute of our session. her pure and lovely spirt is always shining!

malcolm is born

the experience of documenting a new little person coming into the world is one of the greatest feelings-and when it is family it is epic! love all of these beautiful people :)

bettenhausen family

an amazing morning with this family. love their caring spirits and easy togetherness :)

tiki together

beloved family spaces are always worth documenting...so many together times have happened right here in the tiki lounge-by the pool. this family-i have shared so much already-so this was just magical:)

peter's adoption

i was honored to be there to witness this momentous occasion. family's are made in lots of ways-i have been present at births and weddings and am always amazed at how we make connections with other people and the bonds of family.

 this time it was an adoption- i will never forget this day. little lucy cheered when it was announced that peter was now -officially- her brother and everyone teared up with a completeness. 

moments like this make the world better.
