EARTH DAY!!!

As many of you know I love the outdoors. Camping, hiking, kayaking, snow shoeing, swimming, sailing, and of course kite flying!! Here are some shots of my niece over Easter weekend while we enjoyed the gorgeous weather. Celebrate Earth Day big or small – this weekend is supposed to be perfect so there’s no excuses even if it’s just a small walk around the block or enjoying morning coffee on the porch. Take time to soak in our environment, take in a deep breath of fresh air, take note of the emerging buds on trees, listen for the birds in the morning. Help keep our land beautiful for future generations. Here are some small ideas to build into your everyday lifestyle: bring a reusable water bottle to work, bring your own mug to your favorite coffee joint (you might even get a discount!), use cloth grocery bags, if there’s a piece of trash that missed the can pick it up, use public transportation or carpool – take time to appreciate the small things and experience the joy our land has to offer.

‘Tis the Season

For Portraits that is! It’s finally feeling like spring around here and let me tell you summer’s going to come quick! A limited number of dates have been reserved for portrait sessions so be sure to schedule early. Specializing in natural kids portraits and documentary family lifestyle sessions allows me to spend “real time” during these fun times and creates a relaxed stress-free environment for everyone involved.
