As many of you know my Dad has been very sick over the last 5 years. He has been on dialysis and it has literally been keeping him alive and killing him at the same time:( He has been dealing with excruciating pain for the 5 years. Not to mention it was told to him...

Listen up Athletes
I had the opportunity recently to capture some images for a couple different companies. I started to panic a bit when I found out that it was 4 companies in ONE packed into 3 hours…not to mention I was the main photographer that was expected to capture a million different ideas. Once I got a...
Bloom
I don’t know that another quote has hit me with such an impact as this one…
“And then the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was greater than the risk it took to bloom.”
I was coasting.
Life was living me.
I didn’t feel like I had much control.
I was fearful most of my...
Say ‘YES’
‘Firework’
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind
Wanting to start again
You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July
Cause baby you’re a firework

A Perfect Storm
This is what I was meant to do! Join me on a journey of a mother’s day of all Mother’s Days. It’s an average day filled with events that are nothing to write home about. You know the days….wake up, change diapers, dress the kids, feed, change again, dress again, put them down for a...
Star Struck
When you know someone…really know someone…it is nearly impossible to be completely curious and captivated by them all the time. I believe that we get to this point because we are constantly putting labels on each other. I think this is best described in families and all the roles that you play. It doesn’t take...
Brotherly Love
The rest of the “Oprah Story”…To me, Jake is the most inspiring “living life beyond” story that has affected my life on so many levels. He grew up never really know who his real father was. Many of you out there may have a similar story. But, what makes this story unique in my eyes...
