Better in Bulk - Family photographer with a large family
Daily thoughts on living with a large family. I often share the tips I've learned as a photographer on how to get better pictures.
AJ turned 7 years old today! I can’t believe my baby is 7! As is our tradition, he woke up early this morning and opened his presents before the majority of the family left for school. On the eve of his birthday, AJ watched Iron Man for the first time. It was perfect timing, because [...]
I have a friend (shout out to Callie!) who makes the most amazingly beautiful cakes. I have tried to make pretty cakes, but the fact is…I usually fail. I make ugly cakes. The one thing I’m good at, though, is making cakes that people LOVE to eat. They taste amazing. And once you’ve had a [...]
Reese turned 9 yesterday. She is my youngest daughter, and the petite one of the family. She’s always been the “little sister.” I’ve got to face the facts – Reese is not going to be a little girl for much longer. The signs are everywhere. Top 10 signs that my little girl is growing up: [...]

I spent the morning and early afternoon finishing up a HUGE project for work. I finished [...]
As of Wednesday this week, I am married to a 40 year old man. I feel so old. When CandyMan turned 30, I threw him a huge surprise party, which I pulled off flawlessly. It would have been a perfect birthday had he not just had hernia surgery a few days before. Number 4-0 seemed [...]
It has taken me nearly a week to recover from the 12-year-old birthday sleep over party that occurred at my house last Friday. Kidding. It wasn’t really that bad. It was noisy, yes. It was messy, too. But I was more than happy to play host to good kids having good, clean fun together. I [...]
