I just felt the need to share these black background portraits of Mojito today – I think I have a case of the Mondays. And what better way to cheer myself up than to stare at a gorgeous dapple gray Welsh cross pony?! Does it get much better than this? Mojito’s show name is “Second […]

I swear we had like, one weekend of nice fall weather last year. It feels like we went directly from relentless heat and humidity right into a polar vortex. But then back into some wishy washy version of fall with roller coaster temperatures and rain! So much rain! When Jinny’s mom Susan booked Jinny’s portraits […]

I made a promise to myself that in 2019, I’d share more of myself and what makes me “me” with all of you. If you know me personally, you’ll know I certainly have no issue being “me” – I strongly believe that someone should never have to hide who they are or change the way […]

Every photographer has their muse – whether it’s their child, spouse, or pet – there’s always that certain someone who inspires them and their work. Jenna is my muse – you may see her face in a few places on my site! She’s one of my very best friends – it’s an added bonus that she’s […]

If you look closely at my work, there’s a theme that runs throughout – green. Lush green trees, grass, bushes, meadows – green, green, green. I LOVE THE GREENERY! I’m busiest in late spring and all summer for this reason – I just cannot get enough of that gorgeous summer greenery and the beautiful, warm […]

This session held a few firsts for me! My first time shooting in a corn field, and my first time doing portraits of a standardbred! Kerstin boards Prairie at Voight Farm in Monroe Township. They grow their own hay on the property – it also backs up to some lovely woods. But – across the […]

There’s a running theme on my blog this summer – gorgeous clients that somehow manage to stay looking gorgeous in horrendous heat. Let’s add Amanda to that list! It was brutally hot and humid the day of her portrait session at Tri-Brook Equestrian Center. As usual I came prepped with my portable fan (I freaking […]

Where do I start with this one? Also let’s see if I can get through writing this post without crying (not gonna happen). I met Molly back in 2015 when I came to my current barn – she was a cute kid, always fun to be around and one of the senior “barn rats” (working […]

So first of all CONGRATULATIONS to Jen on her college graduation!! When Jen contacted me about senior photos with her chestnut mare, Luna, I was stoked – I love senior portraits. When I went to meet her and Luna at Sommerfield Stables I got even more excited because TWO REDHEADS! My second time with a […]

Caitlin, John & Noelle | Great Scott Farm This shoot with Caitlin, John and Noelle at Great Scott Farm was BY FAR the most humid, hot, sticky, uncomfortable evening we’d had yet this season. So I’m not from a naturally humid place – southern California doesn’t rank  high on the humidity scale. I never really […]
