Tarah and John adopted Aria a little over a year ago and their new life as a family of three is inspiring, fun, spontaneous and filled with more love than you can imagine. Their pups add another level of excitement, too! For this 8-hour Session, they had me document them decorating their home for Christmas + many of their favorite, everyday activities. Check out these highlights...
Read MoreBrinson and Kaitlyn [and their two sweet pups] sure know how to get ready for the holidays. I love this documentary Real Life Session that captures their current chapter of life perfectly...
Read MoreLast month, we had our Documentary Family Photographer come out to our house and capture our everyday life—giggles, fits, play time, work time, neighborhood walk and all. Perhaps they'll give you something to smile about and give you a glimpse into our world.
Read MoreMy husband and I are BOTH professional photographers. I’m committed to documenting our family life every single day, which means the camera is out and handy at all times. We have TONS of personal photos of our family, but we STILL choose to hire a photographer for these four specific reasons.
Read MoreI love seeing our son get excited about printed photos of us together. Even as a photographer, I am terrible about getting photos printed, though. For that very reason, Chatbooks rocks! It's a simple, no-brainer approach to having current photo albums in our house. (This post includes a freebie link, too!)
Read MoreThis October we've been celebrating SEVEN YEARS of Langhoff Creative! On one hand, it's crazy to think it's only been that long, and on the other, it feels like it's just always been this way. I thought it would be interesting to share seven of our lessons from the last seven years.
Read MoreEvery mom has been there... You know, those frustrating moments in the rush of the morning when your little ones are quite literally stepping on your toes and reaching for things you are trying to accomplish—including hot food on the stovetop...
Read MoreTime flies, so squeeze the ones you love a little tighter. And, by all means, don't forget to D O C U M E N T even the simplest things! The present quickly becomes the past. Documenting beauty in the everyday causes us to remember it, cherish it, and pass it on.
Read MoreWhen you're facing adversity, When you don't feel up to the task, When you're exhausted, When it seems risky to others...
Read MoreSounds easy, right? ...But yet we're still scrolling, glued to the highlight reels of everyone in our feeds. Maybe the real question is, "While you are sitting there, worried about what everyone else is doing, what potential highlights in your own life are you missing out on creating?" More thoughts on this are in this post.
Read MoreThe human connection is a powerful thing. I've been extra aware of this in the last couple weeks... We certainly were not designed to live life alone. I'm grateful for my tribe—near and far and new. This post also includes a little self-exam at the end.
Read MoreWe've spent months planning as a team and months on our knees praying for God's guidance and wisdom to follow His lead as we launch a second campus for our church here in the RDU area. Chad and I each have different roles for this campus, and we're SO excited for the launch this weekend!
Read MoreI’ve been trying to master a few areas of life as a mom lately. It’s a work in progress. It's kind of exhausting. I’m 16 months postpartum and feeling the most “put together” I’ve felt thus far as a mother (which may not be saying a whole lot). BUT, when I slow down, let God lead me and simply enjoy the ride, THAT is precisely when I feel the most joy-filled; the most alive. What's the rush?
Read MoreA couple days ago Chad took a few photos of me and Elias for a feature he was working on for his Hope Delivered® blog. He's beginning to share stories of hope to inspire others and thought he'd start with mine. Any other parents out there?? I think you will especially be able to relate with my Story of Hope.
Read MoreDo you ever need a break? You know, like some time away, a change of pace, downtime, intentional quiet moments to sort your thoughts, an opportunity to catch up on other things, an escape from the expectations of others, a chance to soak in the current season of your life? Me too. Allow me to explain...
