My cousin and his AWESOME girlfriend came to visit me in Durham for a weekend this spring! We had a blast and beautiful weather. Activities included food at Dame’s Chicken and Waffles (their gluten free menu is lacking, unfortunately), a walk in the gardens, and a local carnival that we happened to drive past onContinueContinue reading “Visitors in Durham”

Jaime!
I’ve been dying to use some bright flowers to add depth and color to a portrait, and a good friend of mine and a conveniently placed rose patch gave me the perfect opportunity on an otherwise gray May day. Thanks for humoring me with this mini session, Jaime!
Lauren & Jonathan: Headshots
With real life looming after graduation, it seems like everyone suddenly has a professional corporate headshot instead of a profile picture on Facebook. I was fortunate to get to hang out with my brilliant cousin and her equally brilliant boyfriend to grab a few quick shots of each for applications and their portfolios as ~realContinueContinue reading “Lauren & Jonathan: Headshots”
Clark Family: First Birthday Edition!
When the baby is turning one and the family gets out of the car with their own tin bucket for pictures, you know it’s going to be a good day. I got so spoiled with such a gorgeous, happy baby for my first birthday mini shoot! If you missed the other the Clark Family sessionContinueContinue reading “Clark Family: First Birthday Edition!”
Clark Family: Parents Edition
Whenever I shoot a family session, I always try to get a few pictures of just the couple, and of each parent individually if they’ll let me. Most couples don’t regularly have photos done, and especially after a couple has children, it’s rare for there to be any pictures of just them. Usually, at leastContinueContinue reading “Clark Family: Parents Edition”
Clark Family
I was super nervous heading into my first-ever session with people who weren’t friends or family, and left having made new friends and feeling FANTASTIC about the images we created together! Golden hour + a strawberry farm + a beautiful family = magic. The Clarks have been such a blessing to me, from their easygoingContinueContinue reading “Clark Family”
stop & smell the flowers
I LOVE having fresh flowers at home (it’s a side effect of having lived in Germany, I think–flowers are super cheap and abundant there), and Easter is a perfect excuse for me to fill our apartment with flowers. Spring is my second favorite season, and I’m celebrating even as I slowly drown in the last few projectsContinueContinue reading “stop & smell the flowers”
campus lens
Duke’s campus is one of my favorite places to be, ever. Springtime at Duke is undeniably gorgeous (if you ignore midterms), and I carry my camera with me everywhere because I just can’t help it. I have an extra appreciation for campus right now as I’m heading into graduation and the decision of whether or not I’llContinueContinue reading “campus lens”
Funny people practicing
Part of my campus job is to photograph and highlight on-campus events, spread awareness of campus offerings, and encourage students to attend events. I showed up about an hour and a half early to a joint show between an improv comedy group and an a capella group, and caught part of their rehearsal! Theater lightingContinueContinue reading “Funny people practicing”
Wyatt Rivers
Do I get to say “I’m with the band” if I only sometimes take the musician’s picture? When a good friend of mine announced that he was going to record a solo album, I jumped at the chance to work on his press kit photos. Wyatt is a great guy (and he’s single, ladies!) andContinueContinue reading “Wyatt Rivers”
