I was honored to be hired by Jennifer Haggerty of Our World Montessori (there is a new school website coming soon!) to take photographs of the very first Our World Montessori 3rd year graduation. Our son Trey attends Our World Montessori and we love Jen and the school!
Jennifer has such a wonderful talent with children, teaching and creating a caring community for her school.
Congratulations to all the Graduates!

What children take from us, they give.
We become people who feel more deeply,
question more deeply, and love more deeply. ~ Sonia Taitz
Last night I was editing these photographs, and when I starting working on the last of the three, tears started to well.
Something about the way they laughed together. The tender snuggles and their intimacy, that I captured in these photos…brought memories of the tenderness I shared with my own mother, right back to the present moment. What a gift that was.
I lost my mother to lung cancer 7 years ago. Witnessing and capturing this type of connection between mother and daughter fills me with such gratitude. Gratitude for having the mother I did and the connection we shared, gratitude that she taught me to feel deeply, love deeply and live passionately, and most of all gratitude for being a mother myself.
I couldn’t dream of having a better job.
****more yummy family photographs from Our World Montessori 2009 graduation still to come…..
I was so excited when Elizabeth told me one of the photographs I took for Squam last year made it into Country Living Magazine. She sent me over to Lavender and Limes blog, to read Christine’s post with the details. One of my photographs of Misty Mawn was used in a blurb about Squam Art Workshops 2009 in Country Living Magazine’s August issue!
Thank you Elizabeth, Misty and Christine…and of course Country Living:)
Between this great news and a session inquiry I received today for a Squam LOVE session, I figured now would be a good time to repost the details of what I am offering. I have just one to two more openings left, so if you are interested send me an email.
