Celebrating Mom: Rebecca, the Beautifier.

I met Rebecca at a youth bible school, many a FEW years ago, when we were barely out of our teens, both still single, leaving our mark and making our own fun in our then tiny, conservative world…she was confident and fun, better known as “Becky” and I was a confused rebel kid, trying to find my place or rather, the loopholes in the system.

Celebrating M.O.M: Valerie, the Gentle Warrior

Valerie is one of the strongest women I know. She knows how to hold her own and how to fight for what she believes in, and yet she has a softness to her edges that is hard to miss. When she speaks, you want to listen and when she gives, you will know it is with the purest heart that… read more

Celebrating M.O.M: Jennifer, the Persevering Flower.

I first met Jennifer when she was still raw and reeling from the very painful divorce of her eight year marriage to the man she loved. She was beautiful and vulnerable, even through her tears. She seemed brave, even while her life lay in pieces around her. We instantly connected, and from then on, I knew I had met a real friend. Someone… read more

Celebrating M.O.M. (and Me!): the First Six Months.

A few weeks ago, I kicked off my Celebrating MOM project, and so far, it’s been nothing but joy to watch this vision come to life. I’ve received such an incredible response and many wonderful people have lended their help and their services to make this thing happen. We just wrapped up a photo shoot where we pampered and photographed… read more
