je vois photography

One time I drove to a house to shoot the engagement session of a couple I had never met.  As I arrived I got very nervous… there were so many “what-ifs” in my head.  But as Mike opened the door and we chatted and then his beautiful fiance appeared, I relaxed.  We snuggled their cat […]

I have so many things to say… why I haven’t blogged lately, the exciting changes/return to the roots happening in my photography, and so so so many beautiful clients to catch up on.  But instead of boring you with all that, here’s a beautiful engagement session I just did. I’ve always dreamed of shooting a […]

Not so very long ago, I had a senior portrait session with a beautiful girl named Sarah.  What seems like months, but is actually 3 years later, she has called me to photograph her wedding!!  I’m pretty sure everything in the last 2 sentences confirms that I am OLD!  She is still so beautiful and […]

Leigh and I met on a Thursday and scheduled her and Gordon’s engagement session a week later!  She is an adorable, decisive, agreeable gal with a head for numbers.  I haven’t gotten to know Gordon as well yet, but they are a precious couple.  We spent some time at his father’s farm a little outside […]

I have known Laura since she was in elementary school.  I was even her ballet teacher!  Her mom, Emi, kept my first baby girl until she was 2 1/2.  This family is special to me.  So, when they started making wedding plans, I was quite honored that they checked to make sure I was available […]

Megan emailed me one day a bit before 9 am.  We met at 1 pm and she had booked me for her March wedding by 7 pm.  I love that. Type-a bride, type-a photographer.  I met Hunter on the night of this engagement session, and have a sneaking suspicion he may be type-a too.  This […]

When my youngest sister was a senior in high school I chaperoned her senior trip to the beach.  This cute girl on the trip, Cameron, didn’t say a word to me the whole time.  I didn’t know what was going on.  It turns out she was just quiet and shy.  And now, as she’s grown […]

I am too excited about Liz and Gardner’s wedding.  Liz won me over from the moment we met.  She’s just so gentle and sweet.  She listens well, but not at the expense of adding her own two cents.  The things she shared about Gardner made me sure I would like him too.  And sure enough, […]

I just met adorable Craig a few weeks ago.  She was so eager to get their engagement session going that we did it the very next weekend.  Adorable, bubbly, AND a go-getter??  Sign me up.  I loved getting to know these two as we wandered around Mt. Laurel on a mild winter day.  Their love […]

A couple of weeks ago, my sister sent me a frantic text.  Her adorable friend Blakeslee needed an engagement session ASAP.  It just happened to be a week with nothing on the schedule for Saturday morning, so we planned to meet.  Food stylist Blakeslee and accountant Trip couldn’t be more different- but they were so […]

A mutual friend sent Tiffany to me a few months ago.  She and her fiance Travis are marrying in West Virginia, where they’re both from.  But they wanted some engagement portraits here, to capture this phase of their relationship.  It really is a super-fun phase!  Tiffany is basically a model with her ease and talent […]

Last weekend, I spent a little time with a couple whose wedding I’m shooting in 2013.  They are both adorable.  Lara seems very organized and efficient, as well as persuasive!  She talked a friend of mine into coordinating her wedding after the friend had retired from that line of work!  That’s how she found me.  […]

I met this really adorable girl, Colleen, at a mutual friend’s Halloween Party 3 1/2 years ago.  The few times we have hung out, I’ve found myself talking only to her instead of others.  She’s delightful.  She’s beautiful inside and out… confident without being arrogant, athletic yet feminine, loves the Lord and lives her life […]

A really cool thing about being a wedding photographer at this time is that my youngest sister’s friends are getting married!  Maria was one of her childhood friends and this weekend I got to do an engagement session with Allison, another childhood and still very close friend.  It’s really cool to see these little girls […]

When I met Danielle at her aunt’s house for her bridal portrait session a few months ago, it just happened that her cousin Liesa had just gotten engaged.  I talked to her mom about the details for a while, and a few weeks later, met Liesa and Chad about their wedding.  They were wonderful about […]
