When Caitie asked me to document her first pregnancy, I was OVER THE MOON. As a wedding planner, she knows so many photographers that are super talented so the fact that she chose me means the WORLD. Caitie actually told me about her baby boy during a wedding. The client said “there’s actually 3 people […]

Some mornings are just better than others. The forecast actually said overcast but MAN I am glad we kept this date. The fog made for this stunning diffused light so that Emily and Will had some epic, dramatic sun. Some locations just never get old! At the end of the session they joked about how […]
