It was such a joy to photograph Julieanne and Robert’s wedding this fall. From the unseasonably warm weather, the beautiful church, and Salvatores Restaurant and Garden Place Hotel, this lucky couple had a beautiful and perfect day!

On September 20th, 2014, two families were brought together by none other than the groom’s father who introduced them after spotting Julieanne working at a local Starbucks. He was so taken with her, he knew she would be perfect for his son, Robert.

This couple has such a loving family. Everyone went out of their way to make sure that Julieanne and Robert had a romantic and perfect fairy tale wedding. 

I am so happy for the two of you! I wish you many, many years of bliss!

Every family has traditions and memories that should never be forgotten. 

The best way to preserve a moment in time is through photography. 

Lucky for you, that is right up my alley!

My goal while photographing your family session, is to make it unique. I love incorporating the little things that tell 

your story. The best way to capture the true essence of your family is to incorporate hobbies, sports, favorite movies, 

or shows that ultimately bring your family together. This creates a stylized, finished look that will speak volumes 

for coming generations. These sessions aren’t just for you, but for your children, and for your children’s children.

My fondest memories as a child were of visiting my grandparent’s house and thumbing through the ancient photo 

albums on the bookshelves. This is proof of where we come from, who we look like, and that we were here.

Your family session will include both classic family portraits and candid moments. Spontaneous and "off guard" images are some of my personal favorites as they will convey your family's true personality.

The black and white composition gives the photograph a simplistic look. The family is bonded as one and will move forward as one.

I am always excited when parents-to-be contact me to photograph their brand new baby!  I adore babies!  Newborn sessions are always so much fun for me.  Babies grow too fast and newborn photos are some of the most important you will ever document.  They are only tiny for a few days.  I hold newborn sessions for babies under 10 days old.  This is because after 10 days, they want to stretch and be alert.  Newborns are very flexible and sleepy.   

I always start with the hardest shots first and work my way to the new parents holding their little bundle.

This shot is a composite.  I took 2 or 3 shots of the bottom of Baby's face (Dad was holding the top of his head) and 2 or 3 of the top.  Then I put them together in Photoshop.  This is the hardest shot to get and not all infants will cooperate, but this little guy did just fine!
