This shoot was really special for me, because it wasn’t just about taking headshots for this group of clergy persons. All of my passions and giftedness came together at this event. Brian Foreman, Executive Director of Church & Community at Campbell, has this ability to plug me into events and opportunities that allow me to lean into different facets of what I love to do in the world. 

This shoot was SO GOOD!!! See more photos from it, and learn about the Rural Clergy Fellow and the Campbell Youth Theological Institute!

Last summer Three Oaks saw an explosion of growth as new therapists graduated. Three Oaks is currently experiencing another growth spurt so be on the lookout for so many more caring faces to show up on the blog.

One of the many things that the pandemic has taken from students is a typical freshman orientation experience when starting college. At the beginning of the 2021-2022 school year, Campbell created ways for freshman students to arrive to campus ahead of upperclassmen in order to have their own orientation and time to get to know each other… and that is all found through the Campbell Tartan Experience. It brought back so many memories for me to feel the energy and nerves in the room radiating off these brand new college kids. I happened to know two incoming freshman myself, so it was fun to not only remember my first days at Campbell, but to also connect with these two that I care about so much as they begin their journey there.

Pullen Memorial Baptist is a church that I have long respected. Baptist News Global just did a piece on this church and how it’s been 30 years since its February 1992 action to affirm and perform same-sex blessings. The ways this church has fought for social justice over the years is so admirable and their current staff is just phenomenal.

They were working on a website update and reached out to me to come take some photos of their beautiful stained glass and indoor labyrinth to use throughout the site design…

I really enjoyed photographing the team over at Sequence in Morrisville! After being out of office buildings for so many months due to the pandemic, it was wonderful to be back at it with this group! They needed refreshed headshots, and they wanted to keep it simple with a white background. I was able to shoot 19 people over two sessions…

I found myself sharing with a lot of people this past winter that I was slower to answer emails in part because of my seasonal depression. Anyone else get the winter blues? It was real for me this year and I am so thankful that I have tools in my tool box to help walk me through those kinds of mental health seasons...
