Central Ohio Real Estate

Last month many were hit with some really bad news. ONN, a statewide news station where I edited video for a few years as I started my own photography business, will be going off the air at the end of the month. So many friends and clients who supported me early in my career will...

The Space Between

There’s a concept I learned from a college acting class that I’ve carried with me into the world of photography: the space between. Essentially, this principle describes how an actor meets a fictional character in this “space between” each separate entity. Your own emotions and experiences help breathe life into the imagined world of who...

Magical Light

Just sharing a few snaps I took this evening around our property and looking into a neighbor’s cornfield. After the storms passed through around sunset, the quality of light was completely surreal. Everything looked as if it had been coated with a rich, honeyed haze. This magical light lasted for just 15 minutes or so...

Welsh Hills Inn: Granville, OH

Be still my heart. I’ve been researching inns and b&b’s in the Granville area for future workshops and retreats and came across a place like none other. Welsh Hills Inn is ranked as the top lodging location in the entire state on TripAdvisor.com, and for good reason. This place is an absolute gem. The property...

Class of 2013

Nature slammed us earlier this month and I feel like, as of late, she’s trying to send her apologies. Just minutes before the infectiously sweet, G. arrived for her high school senior portrait session, thunder shouted out a few threatening rumbles. But what we noticed was that all of the rain clouds passed just beside...

Leap of Faith: Rockland, Maine

I came *this* close to getting a plane ticket to make the show, but as our summer schedule filled, I just couldn’t make the time to get away. Instead, I’ll...

As usual, we’re offering something special for anyone who would like a portrait session to take place inside of the fairgrounds.

Casting Call

I’m looking for a few new faces to model in a project I’ll be working on over the next few months and hoping you can help! This one is a lot trickier than previous searches. I’m looking for women who possess a natural and/or non-traditional beauty; something that extends beyond current trends and preconceptions, possibly...

Beauty in the Wind

For a portrait session in July, we couldn’t have asked for better weather. When I arrived at our location a half hour ahead of schedule this evening the thermometer in my car red 99ยบ…and then the rain came. A few drops were still spitting as we started shooting, but the air cooled considerably to a...

Atelier Workshop and Classes

Thanks so much to those who came out to play last night. Above are just a few photos taken throughout the evening…and I can’t wait to see what you other gals captured! I’ve already got some ideas on how to make the next creative shootout in September even better (namely, longer shooting time and an...
