Happy New Year!! I’m a wee bit late in the greeting, but maybe like many of you, I’ve been busy making sure I had the right priorities in place at the beginning of this new fresh start or maybe like me, I’ve been having some serious leisure. As I homeschool and mother six children 13 and under, order is no small endeavor, but if I try to manufacture it everyone.. Read More
I really enjoyed being the photographer for Lexington Music Education’s Rock N’ Roll Christmas Charity concert two weekends ago benefitting LexArts. The location (Natasha’s Bistro & Bar) was a very cool venue to highlight this and lots of other talents – local and national headlining performers! I am so happy for all these kids to have such awesome opportunities. BIG thumbs up to all the parents, teachers and performers!! I.. Read More
“Music washes away from the soul
the dust of everyday life.”

Honored and sincerely inspired by the opportunity to be the photographer for Lexington Music Education’s Student Recital at Willis Music this weekend.
Alright— I loved doing this. “The Rounders (based in Lexington, Kentucky) are the result of ten years of musical collaboration between Josh Stitzer on bass and vocals and Chris Mattingly on acoustic guitar, electric guitar and vocals.” “Their style is part ambient, part rock, part folk and Americana music, and all original with a few select covers thrown in. Their style stems from influences such as The Grateful Dead, Old.. Read More

Parents throughout history have blessed their children with this pastime, and although some.. Read More

Thy mists that roll and rise! Thy woods, this autumn day, that ache and sag And all but cry with colour!” ~Edna St… Read More
“Hi. Want to blow some bubbles together?” This summer while we were out on a picnic, a storm (as I am prone to find myself in) gently began to blow, and as my troop and I sought nearby shelter, we bumped into another family doing the same. One of my children offered to share his bubbles and it was so fun, we haven’t quit sharing since! I recently had a.. Read More
This summer has been much better documented on my Instagram feed than on my website but I do invite you to see my photography there. You can read the story of the paradise we found beneath this weeping willow where my girl is releasing the butterfly above, as well as what we were all yelling as we ran back up the hill…here. Or click on the images below for a.. Read More

The giants were forming their battle lines and a lone warrior stepped out to meet them. Stepped out to defeat them.
