A few weeks ago I had a nicely booked up weekend for family minis. It was my first time using the private garden attached to the Fairyography studio, and I was able to see just how beautiful it was in photos. The garden is small and contained, which makes it absolutely perfect for these short […]

This year my unicorn photo sessions for October were sold out! I always adore meeting the kids and seeing their faces as they meet a REAL UNICORN! Sky the unicorn is absolutely patient and wonderful with the kids and it always shows in pictures. I and constantly thrilled with the poses she gives me and […]

September was SUPER busy for me for travel. I went on a teaching road trip all over new england for Hunt’s store and it was so fun. For september, my home garden continued to do poorly, but at least we had door frogs and cocoons. I got some beautiful images at the gardens this month […]

Since I’ve moved into a new, larger studio, I can use the space now for things I couldn’t offer before… like studio maternity photos! I’m in absolute love with how fierce this mama looks.

I downloaded the class images and the second session, but I somehow failed to download the first session before reformatting that card. When I […]

Get your hair done I highly highly recommend having your hair professionally done. Not only is it one less thing for you to worry about that day, but you are guaranteed to get something fantastic that will last the entire photo shoot. You’ll want to be in photos with your baby, so pamper yourself a […]

I travel to teach a lot with my lens company (SIGMA Lenses) and I think my most popular photography classes are my dancer classes. I always go over a quick educational bit in the beginning about how to get good dancer photos and what makes a good ballet pose. I talk about turnout and winged […]

I teach classes for other photographers, and a lot of those classes are hands-on demonstrations in which I talk about exactly how I run a photo session. Obviously, I need models in front of the camera, so for the classes I teach I have to go find a child or family or a dancer for […]
