Melissa has been my most faithful fan (besides my fiancé, David, of course). It was with great joy that I provided my fourth photo session with her beautiful family in five years, in which her fifth wedding anniversary was celebrated. At this point I really should give her a photo session rewards punch card. Sincerely,…

My roots in both; photography and advocacy took hold as they often do, at an unassuming age, without my knowledge of what was happening. My mother, a geriatric nurse, was somehow allowed to bring me to work with her. So, at the age of five, my father would drive me to town on his motorcycle…

At the end of my first session with Andrea, Dan and their, then, two year old son Christian, she disclosed that they hoped to have another baby in the near future asked me about a Watch Me Grow Series. The Watch Me Grow series documents the milestones of the first year of life. As a…

I’ve thought a lot about Danny since my photo session with him and his family Dec 13th. He has Tay-Sachs Disease, which you’ve likely never heard of . Tay-Sachs, according to the National Institutes of Health, is: “… a rare inherited disorder that progressively destroys nerve cells (neurons) in the brain and spinal cord. The…

I was referred to you by Beth Mehaffey. I am looking to get some professional photos of my family sometime in january. Its been a very long time since i have had some professional photos taken. Would it be possible for you to provide me with how to go about setting something up. Thank You. Cheryl Fetz.

Cheryl, Thanks so much for your inquiry. I’m grateful to Beth for sending you my way. She’s fantastic. We can definitely book a date for a family session in January. I do all of shooting on location at local parks, at the client’s home or other places of interest. I collaborate with each of my…

Recently I hiked a trail in Estes Park; a park within the much larger Rocky Mountain National Park. Simply put, it was the most beautiful hike I’ve ever experienced. I spent a lot of time just yelling at the mountains from atop vistas, which is odd. It’s just my go to response when I’m generally…

The year is over halfway through and I thought I’d take a second to share and reflect on some of my favorite images of the first half of the year. This year has been full of spectacular places and beautiful moments with couples, kids, families, friends (both furry and not so furry). It’s such an…

On a day that was no day in particular, besides a Wednesday, I received an excited, verging on frantic, call from my friend Nadja. “Hey, do you want to go see Kristyn and Dustin renew their vows wearing nothing but cutlery?” “What? Yes. What?” “These are all things that are happening right now.” “When?” I…

I had no idea it would be the beginning of a wonderful photography relationship when I brought my camera into the animal rescue, Harley’s Haven. Each baby mutt was cuter than the last. As I snapped picture after picture I was acutely aware of the fact that each one had been saved from a very…

This past Easter weekend I went home and, with my family, spread my Father’s ashes. In an unceremonious and seemingly uncorrelated event, I decided I wanted to gather several transplants from the home I grew up at to bring back to our new home in Pennsylvania. What transpired from this was a sort of “act…
