Jamie + Melissa’s Hill’s Resort Wedding
Jamie + Melissa reached out to me long distance from Florida. They are both in the Navy, but wanted to get married in Idaho, where Melissa is from. We sent a lot of emails back and forth over the months, and chatted a couple times on Skype (with most of our pets making appearances) before I drove...
Lahaina, Maui, Hawaii – Traveling with a Toddler
I know how lucky we are to travel as much as we do. We've been able to make decisions that have helped us pay down debt, and we make choices every single day that allow us to travel fairly regularly. A lot of our travel is to visit family, or is tagged on to a work trip for one of us, but we try...
January + February – The Big Snow
I brought a whole folder full of work to do while I was out of town earlier this month, with the thought that between visiting family, adventuring with little miss, and flying here and there and everywhere with a toddler, I would be able to blog like 10 posts. That obviously didn't happen. Being...
Portland Street Photography at WDS
I haven't been blogging because I haven't been able to work up in my office the past two weeks, thanks to a plethora of illness and snow days. But, today I'm dreaming of the beautiful sunshine we had in Portland last summer for the World Domination Summit. I know, the name sounds crazy and...
November + December Recap
Hey all! Now that we're skating on into February, I think I've got a minute to give you a short little November and December Recap. When I went through the photos, I ended up pulling a lot of them out, because as N gets older, I'm trying to be more mindful of what we share about her life on the...
September + October Recap
When I made the (very long) list of all the posts I wanted to catch up on for the blog, I almost crossed off these monthly recaps. They're not the most popular posts on the blog, they don't bring in much traffic, and they're kind of a pain to put together. But I love them so very much, and I...
Heather + Craig’s Mountain Top Wedding
This beautiful wedding has been next in my editing queue for quite a while. It was equal parts being busy and being tempted to share basically every single photo I delivered to Heather + Craig last fall! This wedding, these people, were so sweet and kind, and I went home with a sore face from...
Balancing a Business and a Life as a Small Business Owner
Hey there. Does anyone still read a blog? Like, really read them? Besides me? I love blogs, I'll never pivot to video, and while I know 98% of you are just here to look at pretty pictures, sometimes I need to talk too. So, here's a post to say that, once again, I dropped the ball. Despite my best...
August Recap Post
August. The month of smoke, blistering hot days, and more smoke. Oof. I pitched taking our big vacation next year in August, even though I know that doesn't work with my business, because I didn't want to deal with another smokey summer. It's so bad! Because of the nasty weather, we spent a lot of...
July Recap Post
I was pulling all the photos together for July's post, and I kept saying to myself, there's no way we did all these things in July! And, wait, did I not get photos of XYZ thing either??? Haha, I guess it was a busy month. It feels like just a couple days ago, we were in Portland at the end of...
