Christmas Time!

Last week I got to go to Greenewood Manor to take some photos of their annual holiday party. I was really excited about this for two reasons 1) I got to take pictures of families who were truly appreciative and really excited about their photos and 2) I got to hang out with my older sister Amy for nearly an entire day because she was the organizer of the party! I had a blast and I was very happy with how most of the photos turned out. The dining room looked beautiful and it seemed like everyone had a great time getting ready for the upcoming holidays. I hope the families had a fun evening and love their pictures as well. Here are a few of my favorites from the evening:

More Merit

I wanted to post a few more pictures from my promotional shoot for Merit Clothiers last month. Here's some of my favorites! Make sure to check out their facebook page and their etsy store to order any of the messenger bags, jackets, or badges you see pictured- and also watch for some of my photos being used!

Winter = Slow Season

Since it is getting colder outside and my photography business is going to be a little slow for the next few weeks, I thought I would take this opurtunity to promote my beautiful sister Julie's new non-profit organization, Cradled or Carried. My sister was diagnosed with brain cancer this past summer and she has started this organization to help other cancer patients find support and to raise funds for the National Cancer Society. Make sure to visit her site and read her story. While you're there, why not make a donation or buy one of her handmade bracelets to support the cause?

One of my favorite photos of my sister Julie and her son Zachary. This photo was taken a couple weeks after Julie had emergency surgery to remove a brain tumor last summer. I spent a morning taking photos of her and her three beautiful children and this is one of the images that will always have a special place in my heart.
