The view from the top of Jackson Hole Mountain, I took way back in 2007, will cover the window to set the atmosphere for Santa's Winter Sports Cabin set. Yay or Nay before I hit order.

*Note* I created an actual window frame to set over the print, the white lines are for reference =)

This little guy is thrilled to be a big brother again, and this sweet girl is all set to take on her role as the best big sister.

I recently stumbled upon this boho swing and couldn't resist dressing it up with delicate flowers. I tested out this charming prop with a sweet little girl and her adorable baby brother. The results were absolutely lovely!

Hello friends! It's been a while since my last post. I've taken some time away to focus on my family. During this period, we undertook the emotional task of selling our family's home of 41 years and relocating my dad to a senior facility. 🏡❤️

While this has been a period of change and reflection, I've also kept busy with my amazing clients and explored some new ideas and themes that I can't wait to share with you all soon. 🌟

Remember to slow down, be thankful for every day, and capture the moments that truly matter. 📸

🌈✨ Yesterday was truly heartwarming as I had the sweetest little boy in the studio for a special family session. This little one is not just any baby—he's a rainbow baby, a symbol of hope and joy after a storm. 🌈 After his journey in the NICU, he's finally home, surrounded by love and warmth. Welcome home, little man! Your resilience and strength shine bright, reminding us all of the power of love and the beauty of new beginnings.
