Landon, Ethan and Fynn

I say this a lot because I love my job, but I had so much fun with this little group of guys. They had me laughing so hard just watching their different expressions. I am looking forward to capturing many more moments in their lives.

Josephine and Corbin

This was my first time photographing twins. At 3 weeks old, I have to say my job was cake compared to their wonderful Mom. She is an amazing woman with 4 little ones. I have been photographing her children since her oldest was about 9 months old. I am proud to now call her my friend.

Kaylie

I have known Kaylie many years. She is beautiful inside and out. I was incredibly honored to take her senior portrait. What a gorgeous day we had for it as well. To see a little more of Kaylie's photos, check out (and "like") the facebook fan site for Kindred Spirits Photography.

Puppy Love... and some chickens.

I recently let it be known that I was looking to add to my pet portfolio. I offered 3 discounted sittings to anyone willing to let me photograph their pet. For my first session, I photographed two beautiful dogs, and some chickens. I intended on snapping some fun photos of the chickens with my fisheye lens but let me tell you, chickens do NOT cooperate with the camera. I did manage to get one picture. The dogs were so sweet and just wanted to play. We managed to get a few of them and one sweet one with their owner.

Macklin

When I am commissioned to photograph a portrait, whether it is a family, child or high school senior, in my mind, they become family. I want them to be completely comfortable and at home in my studio, as well as with me. Because of this, I believe I am able to capture the true spirit of my clients on "film". I am always open to unique, creative ideas. I like to step out of the box, and do something a little different.

Macklin has been my inspiration when it comes to stepping out of the box. Seeing things a little differently, and changing the expectations of what Senior portraits are suppose to be. I look forward to our next photographic adventure.

Martha

Martha is the 3rd Senior in her family I have had the privilege to photograph. She is also the last so its bittersweet for me, and I am guessing her Mom and Dad!

Craig

I have known Craig since he was about 4 years old. So when his Mom approached me about taking his senior portrait, I was honored. We had a blast. Craig was more than willing to go along with all my poses and ideas, and kept a smile for the camera the entire time.

Ben

I have the pleasure of taking my own son's senior portraits this year. Here are just a few from our first outing. It is such an exciting time, and a little sad as well because I know he is getting closer to being on his own. Its such a cliche but the time has gone by so fast. I look back at the pictures of him growing up and i am so thankful to have them.

Sarah

Sarah was such a natural. She made my job so much easier. She was willing to take some extra time and try some new things. The result were some amazing images.

Lavanty Family

I had the pleasure of working with this family with their first son, so when they called to book an appointment to photograph their second son, I was thrilled. They are such a special family.

Mandi

I took some of Mandi's senior portrait in the winter. Her vision was a snowy night with her saxaphone it the city. It was so cold we could barely feel our fingers but I think we were able to fulfill her vision.

I have been MIA for a while... actually almost a year, and while I continue to shoot, I just haven't been posting for a variety of reasons. I lost someone very close to me, and knocked my world off its axis. My life will never be the same, but I am finally feeling upright and balanced again.

This person believed in me completely. Even though I didn't always believe it myself, she NEVER doubted that I could do anything and be anything I put my mind to.

So I am moving forward. Starting fresh and believing I can do anything, I am working on a fresh new look for the business, and updating my website. I can't wait for what comes next.
