Nothing says your family portraits need to be serious and formally posed. These are the memories which your children will fondly remember and cherish. It's time to make that investment for professional portraits and showcase the fun in your family! Thanks to the Reed family for sharing their unique personalities and creative style for a lively session.

It was the experience of a lifetime to represent Team USA for Professional Photographers of America in the World Photographic Cup finals, the Olympics of photography. This was the first year for the wedding documentary category, and my image, "Showered With Blessings" finished in 9th place in the world. It was a photo finish with Team Spain earning gold with 88 points and a close second with Team USA winning silver with 86 points. Team Canada finished third cheered by over 30 countries in attendance at the awards ceremony. Thank you all for cheering and encouraging me on this incredible journey. 😀

Team USA has 13 finalists competing in the World Photographic Cup in Dallas in April. "Showered With Blessings" was selected for the top 10 finalists in the wedding documentary category. I'm proud to be part of Professional Photographers of America and stand with this caliber of professionals.
