Description
My husband and I just celebrated our sixth wedding anniversary. We've packed a lot into those years - one apartment, two houses, six cars, two kids, two cats, crazy schedules, jobs, road trips and more - and this is just the big stuff. I've begun to notice something happening over the past year or two. We are becoming a family. We're beginning to move past the "my way" vs. "your way" of doing things to, this is just how we do it. And I am becoming aware of the story that is being told every moment of our lives. It's about more than just getting married or buying a house or having kids, it's about that restaurant you always go to, and the road trips you take on the weekend, the notes that he leaves for you in your car, that jacket you love to wear, the way he looks at you... Your story is being told -- but is it being captured? My goal is to do just that... to tell your story, and to capture more than just a few pretty pictures (although I'll do that too!). I love getting to know my clients. Who are you? What are you about? What do you love? I love learning these things and then being able to incorporate who you are into your photos. And what do you get? An experience that is colorful, comfortable, and creative... and memories to match. Photography has been a part of my life for, well... as long as I can remember! My dad was a photographer, and he dragged us along to just about every wedding he did. I got my first real camera for my 16th birthday, and from then on, I was in love. My college years were spent taking classes and road trips in search of great photos. I married my amazing husband in 2003, and in 2004, our first child was born -- as well as Powerhouse Studios. I wanted to be able to be home with our kids, I was tired of working in an office, and I had always wanted to pursue photography. It seemed like it was the perfect time to take that dive and pursue my dream. So, I jumped in! It's been an amazing five years! I continue to learn so much, and I am very blessed to have clients who are always willing to have fun and try new things. Every day that passes, I become more and more passionate about the art of photography, and I am constantly (even in my sleep) brainstorming ways to give my clients an amazing experience and unique and creative photographs and products. I make it a priority to make every wedding and portrait session distinctly you. I'm laid back and I'm open to trying just about anything, so I'm excited to hear your ideas! Thanks for stopping by! I hope to hear from you soon!
