Baby Joey

It is sessions like this one that make me feel so grateful to do what I do! 

The first time I met Ellen was when she asked me to take family pictures of her (then) 2 year old daughter. Small world- I actually knew her husband, Jim, from way back when in elementary school! Fast forward six and a half years and here we are with their third precious baby, the sweetest little boy! It makes my heart so happy to be able to witness the growth and change a family goes through with the addition of each little miracle. Ellis and James could not be more excited to hold their tiny baby brother and their pride makes my heart flutter! 

Ellen and Jim- thank you for inviting me back time after time, and entrusting me to document the wonderful evolution of your family. Enjoy!

 

Gretta's Spring Senior Session

I am SO excited to share these stunning images of Gretta's spring senior session. I agreed with Gretta and her mom- one session was not enough so we went for two! This time, we changed up the scenery with a beautiful rustic and green background, paired with the perfect golden sunset! Gretta was once again absolute perfection and made it so easy on me. These photos are magic and make me so happy to see such an exciting future ahead.

Gretta, congratulations and good luck at Purdue! Gretchen, thank you for trusting me again! Enjoy :)

Gretta's Senior Portraits

Another beautiful senior on the blog today! It has been such a joy capturing these georgeous girls during such an exciting time in thier lives. On one hand, it reminds me of myself and doesn't feel that long ago, and on the other, I know my kids are a lot closer to their senior year than I am LOL! Gretta is so radiant inside and out, she really made my job easy. I am so excited for her to go out into the world and do great things!

Gretchen, thank you for the oportunity to freeze time, if not just for a second! Enjoy!

They may not know what's coming but they know whatever it is will be amazing! As you can see, Ava and Sienna are gorgeous on the outside but also the sweetest on the inside! I'm so glad I captured a shot with her proud mom at the end... such a sweet moment!

Cannon is ONE!

"Time flies" is something I catch myself saving more and more often these days, and when I look at these pictures of Cannon I want to say it again! I feel like I was just at his house, capturing his tiny curled up little body during his newborn session. I remember how gentle and quiet his two big brothers were around him, afraid he might break at any moment. Now, Cannon is full of energy and exuberance. His brothers cheering him on as he conquers the world around him, one step at a time. 

 Crystal and Brian- Cannon's first year has been my pleasure to capture. He brings so much life and laughter to your family and it is evident how much he is loved. I hope you can cling on to these days and make them last as long as possible! Enjoy!
