Thanksgiving in Atlanta and Auburn vs Alabama Game

Whew- what a whirlwind it has been the last 10 days. We were with family in Alabama and Atlanta over the Thanksgiving Holidays. Got to see a lot of old friends and family that we had not seen in quite a while. Of course the highlight was seeing our nephews who had turned in to little boys since the last time we had seen them. Man - do they love ice cream. Isaac on the left, LOVES- "Chocolate". They could not be more opposite in looks and personalities. They can be quite the hams in front of the camera. Their Mom is as nutty about taking pictures as much as I am.

We also got to see our AUBURN TIGERS - win the 6th consecutive Iron Bowl over the weekend. Great game and way too much tailgating. Looking forward to taking some Holiday pictures so stay tuned.

about me


My passion for photography can be traced back to early teenage years. A love of Ansel Adams,National Parks, and nature in general have always been a strong influence in my life. From my very first, really bad Polaroid shots I've had a love for photography. Most people would verbally tell their life story, or write about it, my story can best be told by viewing my many photo albums, where every important moment seems to be captured in a photograph.


I am a graduate of Auburn University ( War Eagle! ) , where I earned my BA in Interior Design. I am originally from Prattville Alabama, but spent time growing up in Alaska. Alaska is where my love for the great outdoors really blossomed, as well as my appreciation and passion for photography and adventure. This passion has been a motivating factor for a lot of traveling, including many road trips throughout college, as well as my relocation to the Pacific Northwest immediately following college graduation. This same sense of adventure has once again influenced the latest move to the Denver Colorado area, where I currently reside with my husband Rob as well as our two Boston Terriers- Maximus and Diezel.


Whether it’s an impromptu road trip (which seem to happen every other weekend) , our wedding in Costa Rica, or a simple walk downtown, I can’t help but to see things through a different lens. The opportunity to capture emotions, memorable moments, and the things that others aren’t looking for or don‘t see, are
what drive my photography.
