Hi, I'm Elizabeth

but you can also call me Beth! I have been blogging in this corner of the internet since my senior year of college in 2010. Over the years, I’ve written hundreds of blogs and taken thousands of photos. I can only hope that I have grown overtime!! The truth is that I am very proud of this space that I have nurtured for over a decade – even though some of my early posts make me cringe!

I married my husband Bruce in 2012 and we welcomed Hilde into our family in 2018, Millie in 2020, & Thorin in 2022! Together we take nearly all the photos on the blog (and Megan always takes our family photos!!) and spend our days with this lively crew!

We live in Colorado and often share (or at least photograph) our favorite places where we live! We value experiences over things, so we enjoy the gift of travel (as much as we can as a family of 5 with young kiddos!) and have frequently found ourselves at Disney. Homeschooling and parenting are the big things around here these days – as well as sharing our Faith as that impacts everything we do. AND if you like those home shows, we moved into a fixer upper and have been slowly making it our own since we bought it in 2019 – sometimes I get room updates posted! I’ve got posts about Blogging & Business as well as Photography and also a fun series called “Ask Elizabeth” where I answer YOUR questions! I also send out a monthly newsletter with new posts and other musings – join the list to stay in touch!

frequently asked questions

Are you a Christian?

Yes! I am a Christian and it is a huge part of who I am. I believe that God sent His son to die for me, even though I am so unworthy, because He loves me. My desire is to encourage, love, and share Him with the world because in Him there is hope! I value life at every stage and I know the Lord has dreams and plans for YOU. Read more posts on this in my Faith Category and email me if you ever want to chat more!

How do you come up with Ask Elizabeth posts?

You! Every ask Elizabeth post comes directly from questions I have been asked. Over the years some of my favorite posts have been birthed out of your questions.

Do you do Sponsored Posts?

Not anymore! I moved away from sponsored posts when I quit social media. To read the longer story, click here.

Do you have any advice for my blog?

I wish I had the time and ability to sit down with you over coffee and chat about your blog, but I don’t! What I do have is a Blogging + Business category where I have shared tips and advice over the years. Hopefully you can find some advice and encouragement there! If you have a specific question, feel free to ask in the comment form below.

Where do you live?

We live in Colorado Springs, Colorado! I have some blog posts on activities and events in town but feel free to reach out if you ever find yourself on vacation here and need advice! 

Can I hire you to take photos?

Yes! First learning photography to improve this blog and to capture my growing family, I now enjoy the privilege of doing so for others! I offer lifestyle product and brand photography as well as family, couples, and portrait/ senior sessions. To see my portfolio and pricing, click here.
