//Shakespeare once claimed, "Such heavenly touches ne'er touch'd earthly faces" and while this doesn't mean much to most, two words struck my heartstrings after years of trying to find a name for my photography and Earthly Faces was born. They say something along the lines, "Well, it's photography so I imagine the earthly faces has something to do with all the faces of the earth?". Bingo!

//I am

an exclusive photographer that travels places simply to take pictures and enjoy candid moments with willing faces; be they animate or inanimate. Capturing the wilderness of life in its stillest and wildest, but rawest form, is never far from my mind. I know photographers are a dime a dozen these days and I am not ashamed to say my one goal is to find a small following that appreciates my approach. I aim for professionalism in my art and strive to convey that which captures my eye while remaining attentive to any special requests my client may have along the way. I want to capture you; your essence, your legacy. A couple things you can expect:

•I take a lifestyle approach. This means I document life as it happens and not necessarily by a set of photographic rules. I like my clients in a natural environment, in their most natural form.

•I have a passion for seeing things in my own way and it is my hope I capture them exactly they way I should

•I prefer being outside when the lighting favors my clients

•I gladly travel and shoot on location

•I want what the customer wants so don't be afraid to get a little personal

•I have a lot of fun and insist that you do, too

//I shamelessly allow the lens to do the talking and my hope is that my pictures will speak to you for years to come.

Yesterday my niece turned two. I was feeling a little guilty because it's been an entire year and her parents still haven't received the photos from her One Year shoot (this is what happens when your family member is a full-time photographer but still gives a session as a gift). So yesterday on her big day, I took Little Miss outside for twenty minutes in the blazing sun because I knew if I didn't do it right then it would never happen. It was miserably hot but the flowers did exactly what I wanted them to. She had a blast in spite of the heat and only 24 hours later...surprise! I love this cute bug and her personality ended up showing through perfectly.

When your friend asks you to take pictures of her twin babies, you say yes. You don't hesitate because it might be twice the challenge - she does this all day every day! - you say yes, because the outcome is twice the fun...and twice as adorable. Meet chill Preston William and spunky Parker Marilyn...both fighters from birth with sweet smiles to warm your heart for days.

Five day old baby girl was very alert for her newborn shoot. Her social side showed just days after she was born. It's obvious she was born into a very loving environment.

It's easy to feel the pressure when I create pictures for someone else, but their joy is what keeps me doing portraits and why it continues to be a passion.

These two are waiting on Margherita to arrive in less than a month. This was the first time I photographed a couple I had only met moments before, but lucky for me, they have great personalities and working together was a breeze! Thank you both so much for asking me to take your photos and I look forward to meeting baby girl!

Meet nine-month-old cutie Husdon helping me model my editing process. I don't typically take photos this dark, as I'm constantly adjusting my settings while shooting, but this was too cute to ignore and I'm happy it turned out.
