In 2018, I found myself weaving in and out of creative ruts in my personal photography. Part of this was due to the massive family film project that the kids and I undertook for 4.5 months of the year (for which my still photography took a back seat), but the rest is all on me. […]

They say a baby changes everything. They are right! Super cute Daphne bounced into this world, and landed smack dab in the middle of the best family ever. Seriously, she hit the grandpa goldmine!
