Disney Family Photographer | Lifestyle Family Session

This family was visiting Orlando and planned their Lifestyle Session during their Walt Disney World vacation. We shot this session over at the Port Orleans Riverside Resort.

These kids were adorable inside and out - they were the sweetest little bunch.

Mom is a fellow photographer from Minnesota and our kids ending up having so much in common! I love meeting new people and by the end of a session I always feel like I’m photographing old friends :)

Aruba 2018 | Personal

10 years ago, my husband and I spent our honeymoon in Aruba. I still can’t believe that 10 years has passed us by so quickly! We thought it would be fun to go back and visit the island (this time with our kids) as we celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary back in December.

Our first trip was an escape to the beach during New York’s cold winter. Going back 10 years later (as Floridians) was a bit different. We’ve definitely been spoiled by the sunshine state and it almost felt silly to have traveled so far away when we have our own paradise so close to home.

I had high hopes of documenting our entire vacation from start to finish but quickly realized that was not only unrealistic but also impossible. Sometimes I’m sad when I miss opportunities to take photos when we are visiting new places and doing new things BUT I’ve learned that it’s always more enjoyable for everyone when I’m present in the moment too!

I relaxed, I had fun, and I only took a few pictures...but I’m okay with that :)
