Had the privilege to be the on site photographer for the docuseries premiere of People Worth Caring About yesterday. Such a fun experience and a little change up from my usual photography day. Big congrats to my friend Amber Lihs who was a big part of this project!

✨ "Bring that chin to your shoulder!" (for the ladies)
✨ "Will it look odd if we...?" Yup, I’m not sure every time I have you pose if it’s going to work. Why? 🤔 Be…
Laughter is my all-time favorite thing, and when I’m photographing seniors, I want them to have a genuine blast! 🎉 Sometimes that means saying and doing the goofiest things behind the camera... but then you get THIS! 😆✨
