I've been keeping journals since I was in the 3rd grade and I'm so glad to share some of my most intimate life moments with you here!  Here, you'll find inspirational and encouraging stories of me and other broken people like me. We are all jars of clay who have been afflicted in every way, but not crushed...struck down by not destroyed.  Here, you do NOT have the right to remain silent, so as you read, grab your favorite snack and drink and leave a comment...share YOUR story. I can't wait to connect with you in this beautiful safe space. 

welcome to my

journal!

MY GO TO PORTRAIT LENS | WHAT’S IN MY BAG?

Before I start this blog, let me say that the gear does not define the photographer. While I do love my equipment and believe in investing in my business, the truth is, I didn’t start with the equipment that is in my bag now. It’s my passion for people and my passion for what I do that helps […]

But one of the things that really makes excited and so joyous is my personal community…my circle of ladies where cheering for the team is second nature and being there for one […]

KENDALL BAUTISTA | AN ANCHORAGE MOUNTAIN TOP SESSION WITH MISS ALASKA

There is a scripture in the Bible that is one of my absolute favorites. It’s found in the book of 1st Peter, chapter 3, verse 3 and it says: “Don’t be concerned about the outward beauty of fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes. You should clothe yourselves instead with the beauty that comes from within, the unfading […]

MS. VICKI | A BLACK RAPIDS, ALASKA SESSION FILLED WITH SISTERHOOD

It could have been her adorable short haircut. Or, it could have been the excitement I heard in her voice. Whatever it was about Vicky, just like her sister Jennie, I was drawn to her. The love she has for her sister is so beautiful to me. As the oldest of three daughters, I know how adventurous life […]
