Katie and Mick have a lot going on in their lives. They are planning an out of state wedding, while planning an international move AND managing this during a pandemic. They are amazing. They reached out few months ago because I photographed another wedding at Mick’s parent’s home. They had recently gotten engaged but because […]
You may recognize Sam. She second shoots with Meghan and myself. I also assisted Meghan in photographing her wedding two years ago. And now her sweet baby girl is a full year old! In two seconds you’ll see why Sam and I get along so well. We both have, (what my husband calls) “vision”. I […]
It’s March 1st 2021 which means everyone in the next few weeks is about to hit a one year milestone since the pandemic started. March 13th is that date for me. That was the day our office closed. But before that, in what is the most amazing stroke of luck, we took a vacation! I […]
Six things to remember as we start our second year of the global pandemic. Nobody knew that this time last year that we were about to face a world-wise crisis. It forced us to change plans and adapt. In 2021, as I write this, vaccine roll-out has begun and the promise of “normal” is tantalizing […]

One of the best perks (or hazards) of traveling with a photographer is they document the trip and of course will ask you to do a photography session on a beach with lava stones and palm trees. Thank goodness I was traveling with Chris and Tawny. No one is more comfortable in front of the […]
At the end of our first week, we packed our bags and headed to the airport. It felt like vacation had come to an end- and a week would have been a great vacation. Instead we got off our plane barely 35 minutes later on the Big Island and it gelt like vacation got started […]
Chris and Tawny are professional travelers and have documented their trips on their blog, Captain and Clark. Ryan met Chris while doing a Semester at Sea program in college. Through his stories I felt like I already knew them before our wedding and I was so excited to spend more time with them in Hawaii- […]
