Brand Session Spotlight: Julie Ann Taylor of Colors of Grief

March 26, 2026

Julie reached out through a mutual friend as she was just starting her business, Colors of Grief, and needed a few images for her landing page. Working with her was such a joy. She brought along two friends to the session, one to help keep time (which I loved!!!) and the other to model with her for a few quick shots. Both were wonderful support and helped make the session feel easy, light, and collaborative.

January Snuggle Sessions | In-Home Lifestyle Photography in Los Angeles

I’ll be honest.

2025 was one of the hardest years I’ve had in business.

It stretched me. Challenged me. It tested me, and asked me to let go of things that no longer fit.

A Thank You as We Step Into 2026

Thanksgiving Week Gratitude

November 24, 2025

This year has been full of twists, turns, and those moments where “just surviving” felt like an accomplishment. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone. So many of you have shared your own stories of growth, change, and keeping it all together, and it reminds me why taking a pause to be grateful is so important.

First, thank you. To my clients, friends, family, and followers, I could not do this without you. You make this job more than photography. Every session becomes a special moment, and your encouragement, cheers, and support have carried me through this year. Some of you I have known for over 17 years, others I met just this year, and each of you brings something inspiring to my journey.
