My Passion

As a young girl I dreamed of being on Broadway.

I planned to move to New York with a girlfriend in my early 20's.

{I got a communications degree and became a high school English teacher instead.}

I met an amazing stage director and musician and fell head over heels.

He asked me to marry him on our second date. I was 26.

We had beautiful babies. Lots and lots of beautiful babies.

My girlfriend asked me, "What would you do if you knew you couldn't fail?"

Capture beauty through my lens.

Life is precious. I'm only guarenteed this moment. And I'd rather fail at something I LOVE than succeed at something I could take or leave. Life in a nutshell.

I know who I am. I know whose I am. And His plans for me are far greater than I could ask or imagine.

I. love. life.

Thanks for stopping by. Feel free to visit my former blog "through the lens.

I always say I’m not gonna do it, but I can’t help myself. Then I pay the price . . . but it’s worth every penny. It’s the post wedding all nighter . . . it’s when I shoot an incredible wedding and can’t sleep because I had such a blast. So, I make a pot of coffee and pull an all nighter. Scrolling through the day. Documenting the journey. Pulling the images that are storytellers.

Amber and Zac found me on Facebook. And when I met with them last fall, I was really hoping. They are one of those couples that is ready for an adventure- all the time. And talk about beautiful people . . .

Their horse country ceremony was picture perfect . . . the stuff movies are made of. Best friends under a big tree nestled between verdant rolling hills that belong to my neck of the woods. Fast forward a couple of hours and it was the party to kick off summer in Gettysburg, PA. Sound Wave’s Fred Behney kept the party rolling at the classic Gettysburg Wyndham and I was joined by Bob and Jen from Knot Movies. Amber and Zac, thank you from the bottom of my heart for including me in your gorgeous wedding day . . . I adore you both.
