Thanks for stopping by!

I love to celebrate beautiful things! My interests include anything crafty, colorful and fun! I love to travel, cook, craft, design, create, entertain, decorate, sew..and the list goes on. Stunning images inspire me and I hope I can share a few things here that will inspire you too!

I have always loved photographs. My grandma has always taken a million pictures and it inspired me from a young age. With my first 110 camera I captured fun memories of family vacations and everyday activities. Since having kids my focus has turned to the art of the portrait. In my eyes the "perfect" portrait doesn't mean a creaseless shirt and stiff poses, but instead a twinkle in the eye and a glimpse into the soul.

My specialty is children. I love to capture them in their natural element. I want to capture who your child is at this moment. The little noses, funny smiles and dirt covered faces that make them the person that they are right now.

My approach is VERY relaxed...very "photo journalistic." I'm not a girl that likes to pose. My idea of a perfect shoot is to meet you somewhere fun and let your kids play and be themselves while I fade into the background. I believe it's those moments that you truly want to remember. Anyone can take a picture. I want to capture a moment and tell a story.

I'd LOVE to come play with your little ones. Think of a place where they are happiest. Disneyland? Chuck E Cheese? Krispy Kreme? Think outside the box. Let's get together and let them explore, get dirty and have some fun! Those WILL be your cherished memories!

When I ran across these a few weeks ago, I couldn’t help but think–GENIUS!! They are super cute, aforadable, and you can make them in any shape or color. Your baby can have handmade clothes that are super cute and easy! It doesn’t get better than that!

How about having the supplies on hand and making it baby shower activity? Let each of the guests create their own unique onesie for the mom to be.

I’m always looking for fun and unique gift ideas and I think these are perfect!! Just a warning though, if you show up with a couple of these at the next shower, be prepared to be invited to many more!!!
