A family of three, photographed in the morning at Morse Park.
Notice the wrist brace. Calotype portraits are a yearly event for this family, so these will be known as “the year with the broken wrist.”
Nine Month Old Baby Girl Spring Portraits
The purpose of this Session was to record the nine-month milestone of Little Sister, and feature Big Sister in just 1-2 portraits.
However, as you can see, Little Sister was MUCH happier with big sister involved, so most portraits ended up including both girls.
Isn’t this the way of siblings when they’re little? They love being together.
Fun Family Picture Ideas (Family of Four- Small Children)
Do you dream of unique, creative photos of your family? Something really special that everyone will love?
Tip: Hire some professional child models and leave your own kids at home! Because your kids have their own ideas and may not listen to yours!
(I’m joking) (A little)
Really, for best results, don’t dream. Just do it! Book the Session. Come in and let’s play!
Here’s a real life family, with real life kids.
Remembering Nanny
This December, my in-laws (Mike and Ruth Stephens) would have been married 50 years. Ruth passed away unexpectedly and they didn’t get to celebrate this momentous occasion earthside.
I thought it would be fun to photography my girls in Nanny’s wedding dress and give pictures to Poppy in honor of their anniversary.
Here’s Clara- ten years old
This is Charlotte- four years old. I couldn’t get her to take off the veil- she loved it!
Finally bribed Charlotte to take off the veil for just one picture. She very seriously told me she was doing it so Poppy could see how nice she was being in Nanny’s dress.
What To Do With All Those Extra People Showing Up at Your House for the Holidays
Here’s a fun idea: do you have family coming in for the holidays? Book a Cousin Photoshoot at the studio!
It’s full of laughs, and you’ll get great memories to last a lifetime. This is the guaranteed way to Grandma’s heart! ♥️
Studio Senior Portraits: Class of 2022
Here’s a case where the subject wanted outdoor portraits, but it rained on the day we had planned. Due to weather, the early winter evenings, and his tight schedule, we switched to an in-studio Session instead. Results? See for yourself. Subject and mom LOVED the images- even more than they thought possible.
Studio images stand out in a sea of do-it-yourself and I’ve noticed they catch the eye of the Individualist- the person who respects the uncommon. Is that you? Call me at the studio and let’s talk about studio advantages vs. location and see which one works best for you.

Two Year Birthday Boy: Big Spring Park in the Fall
These images were taken October 25th. The leaves were still shockingly green through most of Big Spring Park, but there was a group of trees that had already changed at the back of the park, near the mouth of the cave. Have you been back there? It’s wonderful to explore.
Love the second one of Dad and son. I told them to lean their heads in. :)
Studio Family Portraits: Family of Three
Family With Two Year Old: Big Spring Park (Early Fall)
These images were taken October 18th. In previous years at this time, the leaves had already started changing. This year, even halfway past the middle of October, they were still very green.
I took some fall leaf garland and fake leaves to scatter in the background, hoping to add some warm fall colors- but I confess I don’t love it. With so much green still around, it didn’t look natural (see fourth image). But the weather was flawless, and the park was beautiful. Enjoy these images of a lively 2-year-old traipsing Big Spring Park.
JJ from Cocomelon makes a cameo or two- can you find him?
