THE JOURNAL

The transformation of the female body to create new life is an absolute miracle. I will never tire of documenting such beauty. It may not feel so wonderful as our bodies stretch and pull and expand, but we are quite literally, growing another human. What a humbling gift and an immense responsibility to reconcile. It’s […]

I have been photographing this family since Stephanie was pregnant with her second baby. I will never forget the message she sent when she reached out. Her second pregnancy was very early on and still a bit of a dream to plan family maternity photos. A few months later, dreams turned into a reality when […]
