I met up with Danielle and her fiance a week or so ago at the beach. What a gorgeous night it was! Clear skies, perfect temperature and a beautiful sunset. We had a great time with lots of laughs and giggles. Danielle is PERFECT in front of the camera, she is so beautiful and serene… I’m so in love with her photos.
She is due with a baby BOY very very soon….good luck Danielle! Can’t wait to meet Gunner
Make sure you leave a comment for this beautiful Mama!
Welcome to my life story for August. If you aren’t familiar with the life story series, it is a personal project that myself and several other photographers are participating in. It’s a monthly (bi monthly…etc) reminder to photograph the little moments in our own lives – the moments that tell our *own* stories.
Last weekend my family and I took a 4 day camping trip to Holland Michigan. The weather was outstanding, the water was beautiful. We had such a great time just spending time together and concentrating on US. I took my camera to the beach and had so much fun just capturing the joy…I’m so glad I had it. It’s the little things in life that are easily swept away when big things occupy our minds and hearts. I even handed the camera over to the husband so I am in a few as well! Enjoy!
I hope you enjoyed our days at the beach!

Just a short while ago, I photographed this little girl’s older brother’s newborn photos. When Mama called and told me Ava was expected, I was so excited for the family…as she would be the fourth child and the first GIRL.
We made sure we girled up her session to show her daintiness. Mama is giddy with pink!
Meet Ava.

I am in a group of extremely talented photographers and we participate in a monthly thing called “Life Stories”. I am taking it up and wanted to share my Life Story. It’s pretty simple, just watch a couple videos. My Life Story for this month….
I was asked to speak in our church last Sunday about a story that touched me deeply while I was in Haiti, up on stage, with 2 of my missions teammates. I agreed but I was so nervous. I am not a public speaker. I am quite unsure of myself and so self conscious, so I was a basketcase. But…I made it. I did 3 services and had great positive feedback from it. I also made a slideshow that was shown right before I walked out onto stage.
I am still processing my trip to Haiti. I am in a bit of a “funk” I guess you could say…trying to sort out my feelings and this heavy hearted emotion that is sticking with me. I hear it’s normal to feel this way. I am so incredibly thankful for having taken this trip, for all of the people that have supported me along the way, and for all of the opportunities that have opened up since I have gone. My eyes have been opened and so has my heart. I would love it if you would take a few minutes and watch first, the slideshow, and then the next video where it shows one of our pastor’s speaking with the three of us. It perfectly shows what I am feeling these days and what MY “Life Story” is this month.
Please take a moment and leave a comment…would love to hear from you. <3 When you are finished, please head on over to Nicole Ridella of Ordinary Days Photography and view herstory of a weekend getaway .

And this is from Sunday’s service. I come on right around 33 or 34 minutes into the sermon but please if you have time…watch the whole thing. It’s about serving God.
