I love pretty pictures. And I always strive to create something beautiful in my work.
But sometimes. A moment can really overwhelm me.
More than anything else I’ve learned this year, I am figuring out that what I want more than a pretty picture, is an honest moment.
A moment that makes tears well up in my eyes it is so good.
I want that. And that’s what pushes me into 2012. That’s what I am marveling at, looking back at 2011.
These moments make my heart swell with gratitude when I look at them, because I am better person because you let me experience these moments with you. I am better because of you.







Let the beauty you love be what you do.

This post made my eyes well up just a little bit, Em. Love you so much. Welcome to 2012.
You are nothing short of amazing. 1) I love you 2) Being photographer by you is on my bucket list xoxo

‘It takes longer than you want it to’ These are the words that screamed at me today. January 28th is my big launch day and party! Love watching you unfold!
