It is with much regret – as well as many well-intended pleas – that the Lily Challenge has come to an end. The first couple of days after it was over, it was a weird feeling not to "have" to take a picture of Lily. But don’t worry, I won’t ever stop. Promise. I…

As a business owner, I never stop thinking about ways to grow our photography business in a direction that makes sense both fiscally and creatively. The majority of our business focuses on weddings. A close second is portraits. We’ve made some attempts to jump into the senior portrait business, but to date have only had…

I can’t tell you how many emails, Facebook messages, and direct requests I’ve had to keep the Lily Challenge going after the end of March. As much as I’d love to and as much as I appreciate the many kind words you have all sent my way, the Lily Challenge will end in two days….

I’ve made it through another week of the Lily challenge! I guess since I’ve done it for 21 days straight, it is officially a habit. At least that’s what I remember being taught a long time ago.

It’s pretty obvious spending just a few minutes with Kelly and Ray that they’re madly in love with each other. He can’t take his eyes off her….

A few weeks ago, I received an email from Jeff. I immediately like him. Maybe it was his name. I don’t know. Anyway, he was contacting me because he had plans to propose to his girlfriend Liz that Friday night. He wanted to know if I would be willing to hide out and shoot the…

A year ago today, our lives changed forever. At 6:45 a.m. on Thursday, March 19, Dorothy gave birth to our daughter Lily Grace Turner. Our lives haven’t been the same since. We’ve had so much more joy, so much more love, and so much more laughter each and every day. Lily has a smile that…

Week 2 has already come and gone! I can’t believe it! Even more, I can’t believe I still haven’t missed a day. Don’t worry though – there’s still 17 more days for me to miss… Here’s a look back at week 2 in the challenge. Day 8 – Look!! This photo was taken at Dorothy’s…

My good friend Nancy Cohen and her wonderful friend Marion Bear have a passion for sewing. Together, they created 2Pugs Design which specializes in hand-made baby clothing and gifts. Did I mention that Nancy has two Pugs that she loves to death – Elvis and Romeo. I wonder where they got their business name… Anyway,…
