We didn’t quite hit the newborn stage with this session, but I had the opportunity to be invited back into the Beitel home to do a lifestyle family (newborn-ish) session when Elliot was about one month old! I loved watching Madelyn be such an amazing big sister to her adorable little brother. And Elliot’s nursery, […]

Oh my stars. These two. I could take photos of them all the time. One of the first things I said to Marissa after we took these photos, was that I could FEEL how tangible their love for one another is. They are so incredibly comfortable with one other, in such a way, that it […]

This shoot was SO MUCH FUN! I met Moriah, the creator and designer at Sweet T’s Design Shoppe, and some of her beautiful friends for this shoot and instantly knew we were going to be having an amazing afternoon together! :) All these girls are not only GORGEOUS, but they are so kind and such […]

During the fall, I had the opportunity to collaborate with Angelic Magazine! They are a wonderful magazine geared towards people who love and appreciate Jesus, music and fashion! And I love ALL of those things, especially Jesus! :) So, of course, I jumped on the opportunity and put together a model call with them! We […]

I LOVE creative shoots! I don’t get to do them as much as I’d like to, but I’m thankful for every single chance I get to do one! By “creative shoot” … I simply mean a shoot with a model that I have control over! It’s a chance for me to break the “photography rules” […]

I’ve known the Diehl’s for most of my life and grew up with Ashley and Weston who are sister and brother! And now they’re both married with a child of their own! It has always been such a pleasure for me to be able to take photos of growing families, especially when the people in the […]

Welcome to Part 2 of Khylie and Dj’s maternity session! They wanted both a lifestyle session in their home and also a sunlit, outdoor session, so why not do both?!   Make sure you see their lifestyle maternity session here. Because that’s also where I talk about how special they are to me! :)

These two have been a part of my life for 3 and a half years now. I’m sure I’ve mentioned that every time that I’ve shared a blog post of them. And I’ve probably mentioned how they were one of the first couples I photographed in my first official year in business. When I say […]

Before sessions, I talk with my clients (I still very much dislike using that word, I’d rather say “friends” but for the sake of everyone understanding, I say “clients”) about what kind of atmosphere they would like for their photo shoot and that’s how we choose a location! But, once Marissa and I decided to […]

Exactly 5 weeks ago I had an injury where I tore a tendon in my right foot and sprained my left ankle. In the past 5 weeks I’ve had to cancel 8 shoots as well as my nannying job because I was unable to walk at all for 2 of those weeks! Those first weeks […]
