Capturing a family session has many aspects. I always want to allow each member to shine, and also want to collectively capture the family unit and the way they are bonded together. This sweet family was wonderful to work with, and had plenty of smiles to go around. They chose some really great outfits for […]
Oprah Winfrey once said, “The more you celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate”. Well, that is an idea I can get behind! Celebrations are one of my favorite things to photograph here at LRP, and I am always up for a great party! I was asked to document this beautiful […]

I like creating portraits in a few different lighting situations. Sometimes, I have control over the light but often I don’t.
