"Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still." - Dorothea Lange

My Beyond The Lens project started to evolve at the start of 2021 but has been at the core of my photography since I graduated with my Masters in Photojournalism and started my business in 2005. 

I wanted a project that would bring me back to my roots; photojournalism and film photography.  I started carrying a small camera around documenting the mundane moments of life, the fleeting moments that can sometimes be missed or taken for granted.  

| Who is this for? |

Anyone. Really. Moms who have so many selfies with their kiddos, and dads who want those special moments captured with their family.  A pet parent who loves a special furry friend.

| How it works |

We set up a time for me to come to your house or a family outing.  I show up with one camera, and one lens, and begin documenting.

These sessions are laid back, with no stress. I am there to document the quiet moments, the giggles, the smiles, whatever may be in my lens.  You don't need to think about the perfect outfit or what you should be doing.  We will chat about the session beforehand and think about ideas or I can show up and see what plays out.
