This past spring, I went down to California to visit my sister and followed that with a trip to Minnesota to see a few dear friends I hadn’t seen in years. I used to shoot a ton of 35mm film when I was in high school. To this day there’s something about it that remains […]
I was 19 when I decided to start my business. I didn’t have any idea what living my life as a full time creative would feel like. All I knew was I had this skill – this passion – and I couldn’t think of anything I’d rather do for my job. I was meant for it. […]
— There’s this running joke the Roberts sisters have with the Adams family. It goes something like… If any one Adams family member plans on having a milestone moment in their life, either I or my sister will be a part of it. The very first wedding I ever filmed was for their oldest daughter […]
In early April of this year I was lucky enough to be able to visit my dear friends Lea and Austin in Minneapolis. Not too long ago, they purchased their first house just a hop, skip, and a jump away from the neighborhood where Lea and I met nearly seven years ago. Different homes have […]
After a mid-morning drive on a sunny day in July of last year, I parked my car at the end of Kelly and Brandon’s cul-de-sac and strolled up to knock on their door, ready to shoot their celebration. From inside I heard the pitter-patter of feet running down the stairs. The knob turned and Kelly […]
True confession: I’ve been hooked on the TV show “This Is Us” since day 1. One of the things I find most beautiful about it is the way it highlights the key role that timing plays in all our lives. We never know what’s coming up for us. It’s only in the turning around that […]
Little Miss Maisey came into the world simultaneously later and way faster than any of us ever thought she would. Given that the sweet little thing was to be born in the summer, it was right at the start of my wedding season. I had one wedding on the day she was due and one […]
— There’s this part in one my favorite Christmas movies, The Family Stone, where Sarah Jessica Parker’s character unearths a photo of Diane Keaton’s character, joyfully pregnant with one hand to her face and the other resting on her belly. SJP proceeds to frame and gift that photo to every member of the family on […]
Joohee and Miao are as sweet as they come. Even when some unforeseen circumstances prevented them from picking up their marriage license before wedding day and even as we were racing the clock to get to the office in time, they were just happy to be here. And happy to be with each other. Theirs […]
— I’ve been photographing Kristyn & Taylor for almost 5 years now, since before they were even married. As in, before before before, like still in high school and going to prom before. It’s one of the greatest joys of this job, following a life and being invited back with each milestone. It’s like we’ve […]
