I always love when I get the chance to shoot one of my fellow dance families, especially these guys. Our Moonstar families are such a tight knit group and getting them in front of my camera is the best. To make this even a smaller world, Aaron and I went to high school together so…

Baby’s 1st Year | Tessa: 4 Months

I think we might have squeezed this shoot in on the very last night of summer. It was warm, and sunny and beautiful and I always have the best time with this family. Tessa is adorable and I love her mean mugging, serious face. She is really such a sweetheart and loves her big sister.

Maternity | Lisa & Cory

One of the most rewarding parts of my job is when my clients turn into friends. This was a very special shoot. I’ve grown so close to this family over the years and I just couldn’t be more happy for them as they anxiously await the arrival of their baby girl later this fall.
