glenn and chelsea’s wedding was one of my first after opening up this little enterprise. they have since added to the family baby rhett, who at 5-months-old looks a whole lot his gorgeous big sister lily, who is 7 going on 23 (a spitfire, that one; a girl after my own heart). i can’t fully express how fully special it makes me feel to have been asked to paint a picture of what this family looked like on a particularly warm and sunny march afternoon, when lily was in full spring break mode and glenn got off work early to play with his family.

the best photographs are born from relationship. it’s why i am so insistent upon getting to know my clients as much as possible before i even pick up the camera. it’s why so many of my best work comes from don’t blink projects and from shooting my own family. and it’s why i can call up so many of my former clients and coordinate a happy hour. i’m filthy rich in the friendships this passion of mine has created. color me the luckiest girl in the world.

glenn, chelsea, lily and rhett: thank you for your willingness, enthusiasm and continued support (and the glass of red ;) )!! it’s wonderful to watch your family grow and change. i can’t wait to see what’s next for you all.
