a girl and her camera

my photography has been an outward manifestation of an inward journey. the journey to be seen fresh and anew as the rising sun of each day. glowing in brilliance, with the past behind me, and the excitement of a future unknown. we all long to be seen through the lens of another that won’t judge us, but accept us for the vision and beauty that we possess, right here, right now. with every image, we carry the power to make the ordinary extraordinary, and breathe new life into that which otherwise may be overlooked.


i thank God for the unique opportunity to change the world around me by showing you the world that i see. my vision is an instrument of change, memorializing the precious details in life for all times. just like every image has angles that abound, each different from the rest, so too do people have many sides to them, unique in their own right. may all of our eyes be open enough to also see their beauty.

Delta Diva


I had the honor today to take the maternity pictures of my sweet sweet friend and soror, as she embarks on an amazing journey in her own life, to soon welcome her baby girl into the world.

As always, my friends are so good to me - I always have so many ideas, but it takes all the right elements to pull them off - and I was very happy with our time together. She agreed to meet me at 6:30a to catch some amazing shots just as the sun was coming up in Forest Park, and then we went on to have some more fun at Studio Altius in Maplewood - owned by the fabulous David Cervan.

We had a good time, as you can see. I'm not sure what we were talking about - but we were laughing pretty often even before daylight broke!!
