New Offerings



















I am really excited about this new offering...really, it's my very first offering to you. I have the great opportunity to now offer you custom-designed leather bags! A favorite photo of your child, pet, husband, wedding portrait, anything (!) can be placed on a bag for you to show off for all to see. I offer custom-designed diaper bags, purses, wedding bags, cosmetic bags, small totes, large totes, and adorable tutu purses. You can't go wrong with one of these one-of-a-kind leather bags. (I am anxiously awaiting some for myself!)


















Here is a little snipit from the bags' designers:
"Knowing that our customers always carry their children and grandchildren in their hearts, we thought what better way to share the feeling than putting their images on a purse!"

If you are interested in a bag, please contact me by the end of October. Orders must be placed by November 1st in order to be received by Christmas.

*note - images above are the bag designers own

New Happenings



Seems like thing are getting busier and busier for me with work, which is a wonderful thing! 5 years ago I never dreamed I'd have made it this far all by myself. So I'm to the point where I feel it's time to expand more outside the wedding world. One thing I have stumbled upon (thanks to Jen..she was my first model!) is natural light photography in my clients' homes. I think it's my new favorite thing! My very favorite subjects are babies and children, while I really enjoy the boudoir work I've done too.

How does it work? I come to you, in your home, where your child (or you) is most relaxed. I spend as much time as it takes (anywhere from 1-3 hours) shooting pictures of your child(ren) doing what they do best and most naturally - being themselves. My camera and I have been a part of bath times, play times, eating times, mommy and daddy time, and so on. I've also shot a handful of 1st birthday parties. The big bonus of this is, mommy and daddy don't have to worry with being behind a camera in hopes of that perfect moment comes along, not allowing the parent to really enjoy the celebration. That job becomes mine. It's a very enjoyable day for everyone and I really embrace the moment of being a part of these special times. So, here are a few examples from my in-home sessions. Please enjoy and comment when you can. And of course, if you find yourself interested, please call or email me!

Here are just a few examples...Ashley, Dawson, Audrie, Bella, & Alax...enjoy!

Digital Photography Here I come




I am well into my first year of "going digital" and I have to say, I am in love. It's amazing and finally (finally!) I get to utilize what I went to school for ~ graphic design. How exciting! It's going very well, too. I was pretty stressed out the first few weeks because it's just such a different process in all aspects. But I'm now accustomed to the work flow and with each job it gets easier and easier.

My first wedding I did half digital, half film. Here are some of my favorites above.

I hope to update as much as possible with VWC news and favorite photo shoots. So please keep coming back and comment when you can ~ I would love to hear from you!
