Tonight I finally put into words what I’ve been feeling for a while now. I can capture it, but I cannot curate it.

What’s that mean? The creative spark that brings all the ideas, and wardrobe suggestions, and the delusions of these amazing shots that cloud my mind. They’re missing.

Why am I telling you this? Because while I’ve been on this hiatus since November 1st, it’s been something I couldn’t articulate for a while. This fall and winter I hit a new low for myself. The deepest depression I’ve ever been in. I’m still coming out of it, I’m no where near the person I once was.

So if you’ll bear with me as I work through my inner demons, I’d love to capture you all again some day soon. Once the snow has cleared and the suns out a little later than we get home from work.

Thank you for your unwavering support of not just my business but me as a human being over the past 5 years.

The Delhunty family!

From the pregnancy announcement to the first family session as a family of 4! I truly enjoy this families company and then to be invited into their home to capture their truest family dynamic was an honor!

I may have been on a few months hiatus(sometimes we have to put ourselves first) but we are SOOO back baby!

Something about me… I love watching art come to life. Ink to skin is one of the most powerful forms of art and I just get to be a spectator to it. Patiently counting the days until the Lost in the Woods Tattoo Convention 2026!

Did you take some videos or photos at the St. Marys Area Chamber of Commerce Light up Night events?! Please share them with the chamber, we are putting together a few things to show the night from all different angles and viewpoints! From the kids reaction when Santa magically lit the tree in the diamond to the cheers of the crowd when all the lights lit according to plan(don’t worry we were cheering in our group chat!)

Send your POV to the chambers page, comment it on their post, or mine. We can’t wait to show you the magic from our POV!

Baby A was the youngest participant this year clocking in at just 3 weeks old!!

Before these sessions I was seriously considering not doing any minis next year. No Christmas. No Santa. Just enjoy the season.

AFTER these sessions I can’t wait to have Santa back infront of my camera next year because he was amazing! 🤩 a

They say a photos worth a thousand words, I think this may be the perfect representation of that saying.

This is a quick PSA. Starting today November 2nd, I am actively on leave. I am taking some time to figure out how to be me.

Lately I’ve lost my drive when it comes to photography. My creativity has taken a nose dive, my mental health is at a low I never wanted to reach. I love what I’ve created with Rae of Light. But right now I need to refocus on my family and myself.

I am no closing up shop. I’m just taking a well needed break for the remainder of the year. I’ll see you in 2026!
