My client aka roomie from college has wanted a cherry blossom family session since I started my photography business but, like it does sometimes, life got in the way. This year, we got it on the calendar months ago. And then, since cherry blossoms are at the mercy of Mother Nature and are not guaranteed […]

I feel so lucky to have documented so many of this family’s big moments over the past year. I met the mom and her daughter last year during my motherhood mini sessions. Then, when she and her husband were married at the courthouse in the fall, I was there to capture that. And now they […]

Maybe you are picking up on the theme from this day. I had a session in the morning and this sunset session and YES, there were dance parties at both sessions. It was a pret-ty good day for me! My high school had this program for incoming freshmen called the Big Brother/Big Sister program and […]

This session is one that would be fun to do again. Normally, clients book their newborn sessions a few weeks after the baby is born and their family sessions outdoors—and when babies are past the newborn stage. This family did a hybrid of those two ideas. They waited until their newborn was a few months […]

Originally we had this session scheduled for March, but mom asked if we could move it up since she was already feeling big and uncomfortable. We tried to be efficient and kept soon-to-be big brother in the car to warm […]

I finished my 2021 season with a bang— a beautiful maternity session with a glowing mama-to-be and gorgeous light. We were at one of my favorite locations and we pretty much saw no one the entire time. We had the place to ourselves! It was a last minute switch since my other spot would have […]

I’m not going to lie, it’s a new (really fun) challenge to do indoor sessions that are NOT newborn sessions. I am still looking for that pretty light, but my subjects are not sleepy newborns who don’t move. They are on-the-move bigger kids! This can actually be a lot of fun because we can utilize […]

This mom spoke my language right from the start. She just wanted to preserve this moment in time with her boys. Time is a thief! One minute you are cuddling up with them and helping them do everything and then the next, they can do so much on their own and don’t “need” you as […]
