Turning the pages I fantasized about the life that the author described. Communing with family and friends. Finding life in each day working and playing in community. I found this book in a small local book store in Mystic CT when I was visiting my oldest son. This was two nights before hurricane Irene was […]
Life was a struggle for me only two years ago. We had just gotten through the worst winter of our life. And I had thought the two before it were the worst. Swearing I would never stay in Virginia during the winter again, I found myself doing just that. Deciding to leave behind the house […]
What do you love to do? How many hours a week do you spend doing it? I have been living my dream job as a professional portrait photographer for 8 years now. My dad bought me my first camera when I was fourteen, who’d ever thought it would lead me to my photography career years […]
There are times when I have so many ideas floating in my head of things I want to do, that I just can’t pick one and do it. Like writing for my blog for instance. I could call it writers block, but it isn’t really. I just have to stop, pick something and start writing. […]

I am launching a new session option with my sessions here in Georgia. Women’s portraits. I have wanted to move more in this direction over the past couple years, but […]
Tonight the moon was spectacular. It was not full yet, but the sky was clear and the stars were glistening. The moon had a full ring around it. It was lit up bright. Everyone on the island that has a facebook account was buzzing about it. All the photographers were out trying to capture it, […]
The weather this past week has been delightful on Tybee. Each morning as I woke, I could hear the waves rolling in and crashing on the sand. I could hear this because it has been warm enough to sleep with the windows open! In January I might add. Even though it is the middle of […]
