Here’s my first attempt at a video tutorial! I’m excited about it, but obviously, with it being my first, it makes me feel a little vulnerable sharing it. The tutorial is for the magic of filmstrips from still photos, by taking a sequence of images and stringing them together in Photoshop to make them look […]

I call these girls “my girls” because they’ve been friends for the past five years and spend a great deal of time at our house. Or at least they did. This pandemic has robbed us of so much. I know I’m not saying anything that hasn’t been said before, but in short, this sucks. But […]

I have been a photographer for over twenty years, and I’ve owned my own photography business for five years. Bang Images just celebrated its five year anniversary, so what better time to reflect over the top 10 smartest decisions of an Alabama photographer! I’ve been really fortunate in life to love both careers I’ve had […]

I’m not one who’s very comfortable talking about myself. I mean, really, in the grand scheme of things, who cares? This isn’t me being self-deprecating; it’s just reality. I know some of you open links to my blog posts and are happy you did, but in a world where we’re constantly bombarded with information, advertisements, […]

My daughter has discovered the messy bun and the art of sleeping in. And I have apparently discovered my love for photographing my sleepy child.

If there’s one thing I’m going to miss about summer, it’s swimming. I especially have fond memories about swimming as a child. I remember learning in elementary school and worrying that I wouldn’t recall how to do it the next summer after being more of a land mammal for half a year once the pool […]

I am a Birmingham photographer and I love photographing events! The Girls Rock Bham Performance has quickly become one of my favorites. It’s even more fun because my daughter is involved! If you have a girl in your life between the ages of nine and sixteen, you will want to give Girls Rock Bham some […]

I have been photographing my Blu, my daughter, since birth. We would go on these photo adventures together and in my opinion, have a blast. She really used to love them and sometimes helped me find locations. As she’s gotten older, she’s not quite as interested and takes a little more coaxing. Of course she […]

There are several organizations I feel a special connection to and try to support as often as I can. Girls Rock Bham http://girlsrockbham.org/ is one of those. I’m also in love with them because I have a daughter who’s been to their summer camp the last two summers and the whole family really can’t say enough […]
