A (Paint) Battle of the Ages When I had kids they became my biggest security blanket when having my photo taken. Feeling uncomfortable? snuggle a baby and all is right in the world. My other favorite trick for making family photos much more fun is to well, do something fun! For my own extended family […]
Newborn month, Day 3 My Story: When I became pregnant with my first baby I never even considered hiring a professional photographer. I strongly believed that I could get great images of him, just like I’d seen from professional newborn photographers. But what I got? Looked like this: My poor first son fell victim to […]
Yesterday I found out that a friend of mine (also a photographer) lost his house in the Oregon fires.

This weekend my friend Stacy threw me a geriatric baby shower. Yep, That’s what they call it when a woman 35+ is having a baby- “Geriatric Pregnancy” I’m not sure what man came up with that but it’s pretty rude don’t you think? I don’t really feel 35 until I’m around a 22 year old and […]
I have a horrible memory. Like, really really bad.⠀ But I can remember the lead up to this guy’s birth 7 years ago perfectly. I remember how it felt to wait an extra 13 days. How annoyed I was with all the “have you had that baby yet?” Texts and phone calls.⠀ I remember exactly […]
I generally try to have something fun to talk about in my posts but today I want to talk about something that absolutely sucks and I feel like really doesn’t get talked about enough to moms-to-be: newborn reflux and food sensitivities.

After waiting 6 years after marriage to have children, I decided to invest in professional photos with Glean and Co. when I got pregnant. I always knew I wanted a special newborn photoshoot, but instantly all her life moments became so important to me when I knew that we were becoming a family. I’ll treasure the album and photos forever and am so grateful to Paige and Glean & Co. for the memories.
