Before I am a photographer, I am a daughter, a sister, an auntie, a friend. Maybe that's why I cry during every father daughter dance. I laugh at every toast. I well up when an Officiant pronounces a couple husband and wife. I buzz with joy chasing children around the playground. I feel awe when a newborn's tiny hand clutches my pinky finger. I draw from the emotions I have experienced through my own life's most precious moments to know when and how to capture those of others, and I usually can't help feeling overwhelmed myself! The emotional rush I feel when I'm behind the camera is what makes me love what I do. The joy I bring others through photography is what makes me do what I love.

More Family Portraits in Cleveland

Also over Thanksgiving, I had the wonderful opportunity to photograph my friend Jen and her family. Jen and I went to junior high and high school together and this is the second year I've had the privilege of photographing her family.

Jen makes gorgeous hand painted items, perfect for any child. Her beautiful painted stools are my favorite gift to bring to a first birthday party. And I just adore her fun saving for college piggy banks!
