My life: Well, ’tis the season of chaos and late-nights. As a portrait photographer, I find myself doing about 50% of my year’s work in just two and a half months. It can be exhausting!! But somehow we always come through for our clients and we always get it all done, with time to spare….

Day Sixteen. Ten, nine . . . seven?
Your images: Last August I found myself at the HOTTEST photo session of my career. Not THAT kind of hot . . . more like 105 degrees farenhiet hot. The kids took it all in stride, as they are native to San Antonio, and high temperatures are more normal than not. But I found myself…
Day Thirteen. A beautiful story of triumph in San Jose.
My Life: I am in San Jose this week, capturing 20 families and meeting with 11 more to share their images from October. Its a busy trip! I am so happy to be enjoying my lovely hotel room at the Pruneyard in Campbell. Its heavenly. The best part of my trip is my little assistant,…
Day Ten. Leaving on a Jet Plane. . . again. So sad in Milwaukee. :-)
Darn! I missed a day!! Life’s been busy around here with kids and work and some great friends. We had lunch with our friends, the Scaiffes, who are missionaries in China on furlough. We met them in California at a pastor’s retreat a year ago and serendipitously they moved to Chicago right about the time…
Day Nine. A family secret. And my sister’s family in Northern Minnesota.
My Life: Ugh, life can sure get busy in this culture. It seems that there is ALWAYS too much to do, too much to be and too many places to go. I cannot remember the last time I felt like I was “done” with everything I am supposed to do. Do you EVER get done?…
Day Eight. Running in Milwaukee. Sweet baby in San Jose.
My life: Wow, I almost forgot to post today. I would have broken my streak! Today was Day Two of my 5K training. There is no rest for this girl, with my 10 year old son, who is an uber-fast runner, and my husband, who is in perpetually good shape without effort, running along with…
Day Six. Getting busy & almost booked.
Its that time of year. The BUSY season! There seems to be a time-clock instilled by our culture that says that fall, late fall in particular, is the time for family photos. I can’t tell you how many people call us AFTER the calendar has been booked solid, wanting to set up a session for…
Day Four. Milwaukee children’s photographer Up North, in Minnesota.
Oh, how I love these! I’ve been meaning to post these of my dear friend’s children picking blueberries for quite some time. This friend and I met on my first day as a new teacher up in Eveleth, Minnesota, one of the coldest places in the United States. I moved there with young Tyler to…
Oh, the joy of it!
This adorable set of twins really cracked me up. They were high-energy from the starting gate and they never stopped! I LOVE it. These shots and more just as fun were from a short & sweet session at Crissy Field in San Francisco. Chrissy Field is such a great location and convenient for my San…
Taking a Short & Sweet to San Francisco’s Crissy Field.
Our September Short & Sweet was so hot, we booked solid already. So we’ve decided to tentatively open up a second Short & Sweet session in San Francisco at Crissy Field. This is a great & very “California” location, with many of the images incorporating the Golden Gate bridge (weather cooperating, of course). We don’t…
