2017 Year in Review

What a fun year 2017 was! Was good to reflect and to collect some of my favorite images from the year, this morning…only a month later than planned!! Yet, so, so thankful for all these beautiful faces who have supported me on this creative journey, loved capturing and celebrating your special moments!

I’m not sure what the next year will look like for my photography…it may look something similar or something new all together! 2018, I’m excited to see what you have in store for us all!!! Thanks for following along. Rx

Merry, Merry Christmas!!

It’s hard to believe this time last year we were a family of three, flying back to Ireland and Norah was just a little turnip growing inside me. 2016 you were pretty great!

This Christmas was the first (with kiddos) that we celebrated in our own home, miles from family and friends. Yes we had to be the grown ups who cooked the turkey…and all the trimmings ourselves (happy to report we didn’t go hungry!). But I’m so thankful for these experiences and the memories we are creating together and these precious little hearts that have been entrusted to us.

It’s been such a joy watching Summer’s little mind ponder the birth of Jesus this year, or ‘the baby God King’ as she would say and we’ve loved reading to the girls the beautiful story which unfolded on that very first Christmas night.

Much love and many blessings in 2017!

John1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.
