Today, I packed the rocket up for a little trip to meet the newest member of Heather and Jon’s family. First, I was greeted at the door by the biggest black lab that I’ve ever seen and probably the most friendliest (after Sage, but I have to say that). Bear the lab was very preoccupied with the contents of my vast prop bags indeed. He also had some reservations about me taking photos of the baby ~ such a good protector already.
I digress – Ms. H was one of the sweetest babies that I’ve worked with and our time together went by so quickly. Though she wasn’t into curling up much anymore, she quite readily fell asleep and gave me such joy to photograph! We even made it outside with the warm weather. And what’s a little pee between friends?

A quick post to let you know I’m still here! Life flies by with the speed of light and there are many wonderful things on the horizon….wedding couples, babies, and families all waiting to be photographed. Today holds a special spot in my heart as it is the anniversary of the birth of the iconic photographer and my personal inspiration: Dorothea Lange. The starkness of her black and white photos captured during the Depression have had a hold on me since I first saw them.
Dorothea was quoted as saying: “photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still.” Incorporating the meaning of that quote into my business name felt like a natural extension of being inspired by Dorothea’s work. I would love to hear who inspires you in your passion….
