As Hockaday’s Communications Manager who creates DaisyNews, website and Benefit design, and the director of Show Choir and Hockappella, I have the privilege of working with the bright and talented Hockaday students throughout their Upper School years. Every day at Hockaday your daughter is making memories of her own, forging her place in this world, and establishing relationships with her teachers and friends. Every day she is learning something new that is changing the way she looks at things and shaping her as a person. Every day she is growing – Wouldn’t it be nice to stop time just for a moment?

I believe that photography is the adoration of life’s perfect imperfection. There is no amount of editing, artificial lighting, or carefully coordinated outfits that can inspire the smiles that doing what you love with the people you love and simply being yourself can bring.

For one day, I will help capture images of the moments that you don’t see while your daughter is at school. After coordinating with you and your daughter’s teachers to find an ideal day, I will take pictures of your daughter throughout the day – working on a lab during science class, rehearsing for an upcoming performance, or simply enjoying the company of her sweet friends during lunch. Photos of those precious moments are the closest I can offer to stopping time.

All full-resolution digital files are yours to do with as you please.
