flashback | muncie, indiana photography

Since I’ve decided to blog what I want, when I want I decided to shuffle through my iphotos today and randomly came across these:  These were taken on May 22, 2009. Not a whole lot has changed with this little guy (except for the unfortunate loss of some of that sweet baby chub). His personality...

pure gold | muncie, indiana photography

On my way back from a photo session the other night I drove by a field of gold. Now I’m giving away a little fact that I have very little country girl in me. In fact, I am allergic to almost all things country-living related. But it doesn’t stop me from thinking it’s beautiful. Even...

contentment | muncie, indiana photography

The Caterpillar was the first to speak. ‘What size do you want to be?’ it asked. ‘Oh, I’m not particular as to size,’ Alice hastily replied; ‘only one doesn’t like changing so often, you know.’ ‘I don’t know,’ said the Caterpillar. Alice said nothing: she had never been so much contradicted in her life before,...

solitude | muncie, indiana photography

I wonder what she’s reading? I imagine The Tale of Despereaux as she probably sees her fair share of scampering mice around her little forest. “And now you have a small map of the princess’s heart (hatred, sorrow, kindness, empathy), the heart that she carried inside her as she went down the golden stairs …” [The...

feeling love | muncie, indiana photography

“I love your hand mama,” Lou says to me has he gently interlocks his smooth, tiny fingers into mine. “Do you know why?” he asks. ”Because I met it, and I love it … Hi Handie!” And my first thought was, my hands are always so dry and cold … but all he felt was love....

journalist | muncie, indiana freelance photographer

I’m a journalist at heart. I was the yearbook editor in high school. I went to school for journalism graphics (with the emphasis on writing, editing and design). After years of working as a graphic designer, I am now a photographer with a flare for photo-journalistic style. All to say, I felt my roots yesterday as I...

take 5 | muncie, indiana photgraphy

I’m struggling with posting these images for the sheer fact that I’m behind on posting client images. But honestly, I’ve been in an emotional slump lately. For awhile. Just layin’ it out there. Could be the lack of sun, the weeks of rain and cold, the lack of sleep … or all of the above....

my black-belt ninja skills | muncie, indiana photography

I never, ever, ever thought I’d post a blog about food. Specifically me preparing food. I am not a cook. Or a baker. Or anything that has to do with food. Unless it has something to do with cereal, then I’m okay. I’ve tried to be a cook. I definitely mastered the chicken broccoli bake that I’m...

see me read.

Living in a house with three boys who love all things Lego, Man vs. Wild and football, I find that sometimes it’s just a little hard to relate. Yes, I do enjoy all three of those things, but not the way they all do. However there is one thing that is mine alone to do...

treasures | muncie, indiana photography

For over three years now, my boys have shared a bedroom. Since Louie moved out of the crib to his big boy bed (literally because Louie gets to sleep in the queen bed that becomes the guest bed when friends and family stay over), he has shared a room with Tommy. It’s practically all he...

a little something | muncie, indiana photography

I have a lot of fun fall sessions to share. I still have one more left for the 2010 season and then hopefully I’ll be able to catch up and blog them all. Honestly, I’ve spent the fall in what’s felt like an eternal sinus infection. This is the first week in 5 or 6...
