To be a member of the WPJA (Wedding Photojournalist Association) is already so wonderful. In order to be a member, an artist has to adhere to photojournalism and have “a distinctly artistic vision toward wedding photography,”  have a portfolio review and then be accepted.  Every quarter, members from around the world can submit a small amount of their favorite images to be judged by a panel of the finest wedding & photojournalism photographers.  Never did I expect to ever win an award.  After being in the WPJA for less than a year now, I was shocked and incredibly honored to see that one of my images had placed in the top ten for a category (9th place for Details found).  I can only imagine how many images the judges went through and to be among amazingly talented photographers from around the world. I am floored and so elated. Thank you to the beautiful bride, Liana.

I love documenting life. I love documenting weddings. I love that our clients trust to let us capture their moments through our point of view. I love that I am lucky to have an amazing husband & talented artist as a partner. We are honored to have amazing clients. This award is the cherry on top.

I just wanted to share this moment of happiness on the lifestyle portrait blog.

Here is the link to the old children’s blog if you want to peruse the years past.

I have been wanting a new lifestyle blog design {featuring my children & family clients} for a while now. This year seemed perfect for the change. It feels that I need to evolve once again while still maintaining our aesthetic, but progress to something that makes our photography shine. We hope you like the new look.  It is not that different, but just a few tweaks here & there to make it more ours. If you don’t want to have time going to the years of work on the old blog, then the video is a little glimpse into the past year at least. We have a portfolio to peruse too, but the blogs ( wedding & art blog & old blogs ) show so many more images.
