A LIFE CHANGE
A Life Change into the World of Homeschooling
September 18th marked Camden’s 1st day of the 7th grade … Home school style đź“š ❤️ When asked what he thought of his 1st day he said, “It was awesome!”
A few months ago we decided to embark in to the world of homeschooling. There are many reasons, but most importantly it is to help this bright and amazing little man to continue to thrive and become the best all around, well rounded human being he could possibly be.
My parents and I are Camden’s teachers. We started by introducing 2 subjects to start with… his picks: American History and Math. The first 2 weeks have been going so great thus far!! And most importantly, he’s loving it 🙂
Camden is also getting some Physical Education by playing golf and football, playing catch with my dad, and going on walks with my mom 🙂 I mean, come on!! What better way to get some physical activity than with your grandparents!!??!!
Last Friday he and I started his 1st Art Class! He wanted to start with photography (god bless his soul!). He was so eager to learn and I loved every single millisecond of it. In this first lesson and going forward I am simply teaching him in Manual Mode and how to shoot from the heart… to shoot what is beautiful to him. He is learning how to adjust his Shutter Speed and Aperture to adjust his lighting and depth of field.
Below find the images that this precious little man of mine took on Day 1:
The above 3 images he was working on photographing from a few different angles to get slightly different looks.
And below are the rest he took all on his own too! He had such a blast putting his legos into different areas to capture as well as finding beauty in the nature around him 🙂
I am a photographer and dating strategist specializing in natural-light portraits that feel confident, approachable, and genuinely reflective of who you are. Whether I’m shooting a Dating Photos That Work™ session or a high-level personal branding project, my goal is to create images that are honest, not performative.
My Approach
Rooted in emotional intelligence and over 16 years of experience, my process is designed for the “unphotogenic.” I believe the best photos happen when you feel comfortable enough to be yourself and seen enough to trust the process. A strong image isn’t about vanity—it’s about clarity. It is the first impression that shapes how the world perceives you before you ever say a word.
The Personal Side
My journey includes a decade of single motherhood, entrepreneurship, and a national CBS News feature on the psychology of first impressions. But perhaps my favorite “proof of concept” is my own: I met my husband on Bumble at age 42. I’ve seen firsthand how a strategic, authentic online presence can transform your life and lead to real, aligned connection.
The Relocation (Dallas & Minneapolis)
End of April 2026, my family and I officially relocated to Dallas, Texas. While I am now locally serving the DFW Metroplex, the Twin Cities will always be a part of my story. I continue to offer my signature photography experience in Minneapolis–St. Paul through exclusive quarterly residency sessions.
When I’m not behind the lens, you’ll find me with my husband, my son, and our beautifully blended family, soaking up our new Texas life (and probably hunting for the best patio in Dallas).
If you’re here because you’re ready for photos that actually feel like you, you’re in the right place. I’m so glad you found your way here.
