Why Photographers Never Give Unedited Photos

One of the worst questions a photographer hates to hear is, “Can I have the raw photos?” Now that’s a LITTLE dramatic but usually, the answer is no. Unless it was agreed upon prior to the shoot, meaning that the photographer would not be providing professional editing, asking for raws is a great way to […]

I deleted my social media for a week…

Snow Day Home Session | Family Photography

I absolutely love an in-home family photography session! Since defining as a candid/documentary-style photographer, I’ve discovered that at-home sessions are one of the best ways to capture a family.

The Journey So Far…

Sometimes I step back and think to myself, “How the heck did I get here!” Well, it all started when I got a little point-and-shoot canon camera freshman year of high school.
