As an artist, we often draw from life in our creative work. I am currently on an intense healing journey. After five years of nonstop grief and trauma, I am in the midst of extensive and incredibly hard work to heal my soul which includes EMDR therapy.
I havent painted in some time and as I am working through the things, I am reminded how therapeutic it has been for me.
Last night, I went for a walk at the park Fi and I frequented.
It opened a flood of emotions and this was how I spent the rest of the night.

One of my goals for 50 (how am I going to be 50????) is to finally produce that art show later this year. I think "Chester" will be included.

I am also working to have prints available of some of my pieces and photographs in the coming months.

I hope everyone is having a peaceful holiday season. I dont get behind the lens as often as I would like while I have been focusing on some life and I am excited to offer more availability for 2026.
Yesterday, I had the honor of capturing some engagement pics for one of my daughters best friends. These two are reconnected high school sweethearts and I am so excited for them! So stinking cute!!!

If you have a special event or need updated family pictures in 2026, please reach out for availability and pricing options!

I have a couple of photography jobs to finish editing and deliver but wanted to put this on the radar!
Beginning in August, art is being placed closer to the front of the line as I shift my business models to accommodate the current economy and diversify among the three entities.
There will be a line of prints made available for direct shipping as well as custom items, paintings, handmade items and my photography books are open (perfect time to book those Senior 2026 sessions!)

Senior sessions are some of my absolute favorites and I was honored to spend this morning capturing this amazing girl!

Books are open for the class of 2026! Lock yours in now!

I am working on some pride items but will NOT be doing big advertising because the algorithms like to push me out to people that don't appreciate my wares lol
There will be perler bead coasters and keychains, scrunchies, and so much more! Keep an eye out for pop ups and ways to buy/order!

I have been craving some canvas time and while this isn't a new piece, it scratches the itch today. This beast (3x4!) has a buyer so I'm putting some finishing touches on it but I have several large pieces on the pipeline that should be ready in the next several months. There is also a stack of 10x10's waiting for some inspiration ❤️🎨🖌
Art is cathartic for the soul 🙏🙏

Guess who's back ;)
I have been laying low the first part of this year as I focused on surgery and recovery. Everything went amazing, and I have a shiny new nose that actually functions lol
I had the opportunity to sneak some mini sessions in earlier this month and I am just so honored to be trusted with these special moments!

My books are open and I will be posting some mini specials very soon!

Psssst. Hi friends. We haven't been active over here for a bit. Holidays were tough. Grief is weird. Healing is not linear. BUT art is forever and I will be back in the swing of things soon I hope!
I have a fun little kiddo shoot lined up next week and look forward to being behind the lens again.

I will be having surgery on March 11 to repair my sinuses and nose and will be out of commission 2-3 weeks.
During that downtime, I will be solidifying my calendar for the remainder of the year, getting my website back up and running AND planning an event in October to celebrate my 10 year anniversary in the Massage and Wellness industry.

Keep an eye out for details later this year!

Here's a throwback to one of my favorite shoots last year!
