“To me, photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place… I’ve found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.” – Elliott Erwitt

Lifestyle Photography.


As a new, very new, photographer (and I use that term loosely when describing myself) I haven’t yet figured out my style.  I’m in love with portraiture; I see amazing beautiful photos every day, ones I can only dream of being able to take someday. 

I naturally gravitate toward portraiture, lifestyle portraiture in particular.  I’m still fumbling along this amazing journey that I’m sincerely grateful I discovered.  I don’t expect to ‘find my style’ quite this easily and I know it’ll take years of practice and learning. 

That said there’s something about capturing the everyday moments that allow you to take a peek into the personalities of the people in a photo that draws me in.  Capturing life as it goes in an artistic manner is what makes my heart sing. 

These are the photos that I hang, with pride, in my home and the moments that I want to remember.
