On the Farm

My son Korben had an amazing teacher for pre-school this year. We enjoyed her so much! I was thrilled when she asked me to take her family's photos at the end of the school year. I ventured out onto their farm, originally owned by her grandparents and caught a glimpse of the joys of carefree children climbing, jumping, hiking, exploring, etc. I hope these images capture their lighthearted spirits!

Celebration!

Teague is 1! Wasn't I just taking his newborn photos?





And now he's all grown up! We were even able to catch some of his first steps. It was also a bittersweet day as we did photos with Martin, the family's foreign exchange student who will be leaving soon. Martin has been with Teague most of his first year- I am sure he will be greatly missed.

Portraits of Motherhood

"The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new."

You are all beautiful women full of strength, compassion,grace and joy. Your love for your children is tangible. You all inspire me daily. Thank you for allowing me to photograph you during these precious moments.
