Hannah.
Her name means “grace” and it fits her beautifully.
She is over ten years my junior; and as much as I want to say that I am able to impart all of this great wisdom into her, she ends up imparting it into me.
We went out yesterday to shoot just for fun, and here are a few of my favorite shots.
Some people have holiday traditions. Open one present on Christmas Eve. Watching “It’s a Wonderful Life”. Seeing who can eat the most port wine cheese. You get the idea. I have a fairly new holiday tradition, which is to burn my Christmas cookies. It happens every year. So, instead of calling myself a bad baker, I’m calling it a tradition. Yea.. let’s go with tradition.
A few days after Christmas, we spent the day at my sister-in-law’s, eating lots of sugary (non-burned) treats, drinking tea (pomegranate green tea, which is super yummy) and playing poker. Okay, well I didn’t play poker. I’m really bad at it.
Here are a few of my favorite shots. They are mostly detail shots. I like capturing ambiance… Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!
My sister-in-law transformed these bottles into holiday decorations. Kudos to her for thinking of it before me and doing a much better job than I ever would!
I truly could not eat one more bite.
Poker begins…
Be Merry! Until next Christmas! (Gotta love window gels.)
Here are some of my favorite shots from Jessica and Joshua’s wedding!
Assisted with Seth Snider Photography.
A few sentiments written on a picture of the couple…
The details of this wedding made me want to go grab a Pumpkin Spiced Latte at Starbucks! After realizing I might get fired if I do that, I chose to just take pictures instead. 
I loved the fall details they chose, and they had some many more. Here are just a few.
The next several images are officially deemed my Ninja Shots. Since I was assisting at this wedding, I was able to play around more angles and location. They chose to get married outside in a gazebo, and I chose to bust out my 300mm and position myself “just so” between some bushes. I felt like a spy. Or a ninja. I’ll go with ninja.

They had a spotlight on them for their first dance. As it should be.

I had the pleasure of assisting with Seth Snider for Jenny and Matthew’s wedding.
Here are a few of my favorite shots…
Little girl twirls.
It’s Jewish tradition for the bride to circle around the groom 7 times.
She thought looking at the field and the horses would be more fun than getting her picture taken. I think I would too…
Okay, well not everything. I will not have a first time for sky diving or bungee jumping, eating any strange ocean creatures or doing any Survivor Man adventures. (I’ve got to draw the line somewhere. And let’s be honest… it stops way before eating strange ocean creatures.)
However, I did have a first time for shooting a wedding. I was thrilled to have my husband come along as my second shooter, and thrilled that Kelly and Charles took a chance on me as a first time wedding photographer!
Here are some of my favorite shots. Kelly and Charles – good luck to both of you. You are a beautiful couple!
Getting Ready… I think my favorite part of the day to shoot!
The wedding was located on a ship. Here is Kelly walking from the Bridal Suite at the top of the ship down to her guests and groom!
