Meet the Nekritz family—Ed, Wendy, Jessica and Matthew. What a bunch of strong personalities! There would be no “faking” it from them, which was quite refreshing, actually. I walked away from the shoot feeling like I had actually captured their true spirits—especially the kids. All I had to do to [...]


The Olivers

Meet Little Lyla Oliver….  the most sweet, and petite little 15 month old!  She was like a little doll to work with–and so beautiful.  I can’t believe I’m even going to say this, because the last thing I want to do is perpetuate the celebrity obsession some of us have, but doesn’t Lyla look just [...]


I am in love with this family…. I have been working with Cleo and Jon since their wedding on New Year’s Eve back in 2003/2004 and have been so lucky to have had the opportunity to photograph their family as they “grow”. Teddy is now 2, and Rosie, just three months. Cleo [...]


What a lovely family! These four were so easy to work with—maybe it was being at the park, but they all seemed to genuinely enjoy the session (which is, of course my goal)! Alex and Michael are twins, and so completely different in their nature. Alex was the ham. Michael was [...]


It’s not everyday that one gets to photograph twins!  And they were the happiest and prettiest little twins that I’ve ever had the opportunity to photograph….  Susie had called and told me that they had had an impromptu bbq at their home right before the shoot, and that the girls were really tired and grumpy. [...]


I don’t even know what to say about this family, except that  it is so clear to me how much they love each other.  There is just so much joy in their home…. Check out Louis for example, he was just getting over strep when we did these photos and was still under the weather.  [...]


It’s true…sometimes there is nothing you can do to make three children sit still and smile for the camera—this isn’t my style anyhow, but Shayna has been a client of mine for a long time and these pictures were as much for her mom as they were for herself.  Ideally, the two mothers really wanted [...]


I never know what I’m going to get when I have a family shoot—sometimes they are hard work, and others, like the shoot with the Mitchell’s, I leave feeling so blessed to be doing what I do for a living.  This family was so wonderful to work with.  They let me stand back and truly [...]


It was only just a year ago that I was photographing Haley and Paul’s wedding, and already a baby! Life can happen so fast sometimes. Although a bit surprised by the news of a little guy on the way, Haley and Paul seem so happy and as though their lives are complete. [...]


The Sungy’s are great old friends of mine…. I shot Erin and Matt’s wedding just two weeks after mine in 2004 and since then have been able to follow their lives and document all their “big events”. I shot Erin’s sister’s wedding, her cousin’s wedding, a couple of her friends weddings, and last fall [...]
