Once upon a time, I had a gratitude project series I worked on. On my hard days, I’d take my camera in hand and go out to photograph things that would make me happy. Before we got to bring our precious little lady home, I was struggling to figure out what the future would hold. …
Gratitude Project | Winter 2016
I’ve been sharing a lot of my fine art projects with you and it seems I’ve let my Gratitude Project slip a little. Honestly I’m okay with that for a couple reasons. One – I think it’s important that we evolve as artists. If we continue to do the same things over and over we …
The Gratitude Project Shop is Open
I shared with you guys on New Years Day some of the goals I have for this year. And one of those goals is to make my art more accessible, to make it possible for people to view and purchase pieces of my creative expressions. I figured a safe and easy place to start would …
Gratitude Project: September 2015
It’s been a little while since the last time I shared any of my artwork from my Gratitude Project with all of you. In spite of my fine art projects, I still seem to find time and have a desire to go out with my camera and document the things that move me! Especially on …
Gratitude Project: Tranquil Landscapes
It’s been a while since the last time I shared any of my artwork from my Gratitude Project with all of you. I worried when I started up my other personal projects that I might start to let this slide. But I still find myself inspired and encouraged to take my camera outside and capture …

Gratitude 2014 in Print
So if you guys know me – you know I’m a big believer in printing your pictures. For the past few years I’ve had personal projects, my Gratitude Project in particular. In case you missed it from posts in years past, my Gratitude Project was something I started to help me focus on the positive. …
A Trip to the Apple Orchard
If you’ve been following me for a while now – you may recall that fall is my favorite time of year. There are so many things I love about fall: the weather, cookouts and campfires, boots and sweaters, hot cocoa and s’mores, and one of my favorite things – trips to the apply orchard! We …
The Value of the Tangible
If you follow me on Instagram, you may recall a few weeks ago that I shared an album I had been working on for me and Ryan. Every year I make sure to get photographs taken of Ryan and me. It’s something that’s very important to me because someday I want our kids to be …
Night Sky Photography
Sometimes, or rather oftentimes, I feel this need to create. Once upon a time… one of my college professors told me I should never do portrait photographer, but stick to nature and landscapes. Today I find that statement rather funny considering my clients love the way I bring out their inner spark and personality in …
