As both a mom of four kiddos AND a mom in waiting, I know Mother’s Day can bring a lot of emotions. Joy, anger, grief, jealousy. It’s a lot. It’s overwhelming sometimes. Last year (2022) I took pictures with my four kids hoping (kind of assuming if I’m honest) that we’d have our adopted babes […]

my new polaroid – shopping links included
I brought my polaroid to Seattle, knowing I would want to document some of my adventures. On Tuesday (7.5.22), my brother and I left early to hit his work (a camera store) before going on a hike. When we arrived at his work, I realized I had left my polaroid in my backpack, which I […]
happy 1st birthday spencer
Spencer Myles is officially ONE years old!!!! My sweet friend took his one year photos and I am in love!!! We focused on the Lord of the Rings theme (his party theme) and it was amazing! My mom made his cloak from material I found at the thrift store and I got the sword, ring […]
a summer of polaroids
The last couple summers (June 1st – beginning of August), I’ve “challenged” myself to take a polaroid photo every day. Sometimes it doesn’t happen (& that’s okay), but by the end of summer, most of our days have been captured through film. I wanted to invite you to join me if it’s something you’d find […]

happy 2nd birthday paisley
Happy 2nd Birthday Paisley Alora! As I do with each birthday, I did a little photoshoot with the Birthday Girl. Playing off Paisley’s obsession with cows, I took her to a farm that had a calf. Aside from feeding it a couple handfuls of feed, she had little interest in taking pictures with it. However, […]
rylie’s preschool graduation
I never thought I’d be the parent that took preschool graduation photos. It just didn’t seem like a big deal to me… to “graduate” preschool. And then my oldest finished preschool and was gearing up to enter Kindergarten. And some of her best friends were having little graduations and I saw they’re pictures & I […]
spencer’s newborn session
It’s become a tradition for me to take the kids’ newborn pictures when they’re 8days old. It’s something I enjoy doing & I really don’t need the fancy, styled and heavily edited pictures some studios offer. I just want to remember their little features and the newborn cuteness! Spencer’s pictures were different because, well, BOY! […]
our maternity session – spencer
I make maternity photos a priority, and my pregnancy with Spencer is no different. In the past I’ve worn a dress and made it more of a girly-vibe (partially because we were having girls but also because I wanted to feel pretty), but this round I wanted it to be casual – jeans and country […]
