Awaiting Owen.

Grant and Jessica are some dear friends of mine who will be celebrating the birth of their little one in a few weeks. I'm so thrilled for them and was very honored to be asked to document this amazing time in their lives. We had a blast and I can't wait to meet Baby Owen once he arrives!

The Williams Family.

The Williams are a sweet family with an amazing story. I had the privilege of going to their home and capturing some family moments with their two adorable girls. It was a wonderful visit and a very fun shoot!

Still Here!

I'm alive! I'm still here!

After a very fun holiday break, I'm back, with more bookings! Here are a few shoots I had the privilege of doing during the holidays. This was the first white Christmas I can remember in a while, so it was fun to bundle up and run into the chilly weather to capture some sweet moments with sweet friends.

One of the best things about my little side job as a photographer is the chance to catch up with amazing people from my past. Andrew, whom I've known since middle school, recently contacted me to take engagement pics! We met up in our old hometown and caught up each other's lives during the shoot. His fiance, Heather, was so sweet. This was definitely a fun shoot!

Then, after New Year's, I bundled up again and headed into the arctic temps with my precious friends, Russell and Erin. They will be celebrating the birth of their little girl, Emery Mae, in March. This is such a sweet time in their lives and I was honored that they asked me to capture it for them. Even if it meant trekking through the icy snow and frequent trips back to the car to warm up!!

Happy New Year!

The Krispense Family.

This was a shoot with a family that I love. The Krispense's took Josh and I in when we first started attending their church and have remained great friends since then. We've loved watching their kids grow up and have gleaned much parenting wisdom from them! This shoot was fun and relaxed. Definitely a gorgeous family--inside and out!! 

Don and Emily.

I had so much fun doing this shoot for Don and Emily! They were not only gracious and fun to hang out with, but they were also extremely photogenic AND they had a lot of ideas, which makes it even more fun for me! This was a great shoot and I definitely enjoyed it!

Jay and Erica.

This past weekend I had a great time doing a shoot for Erica and her fiance, Jay! This couple is sweet and are absolutely adorable together, which made for a fun and easy shoot. They even brought along their boxer mix, Legacy, who very willingly complied for some shots. Best wishes to this amazing couple!!

Brother.

I love my brother and I love his family, so I was more than happy to take their family pictures this past weekend at my parents' house! The kiddos did great and were adorable as usual. Here are a few of the pictures. This is one beautiful family!

Sisters.

My very first photography shoot was with this sweet girl, Ashley. She had just turned two and I was so honored that her parents asked me to take her pictures! Now she's grown into such a big girl (three!) and I was honored to take pictures of her and her sister, Abigail. They were so well behaved and we had a blast. They are beautiful girls!

Baby Ella.

Today I had the privilege of photographing sweet Baby Ella. I did her Mama's maternity pictures a few months ago and was so pleased when she asked me to take some of her new little girl. Ella is an absolute doll, with the sweetest personality and the greatest expressions. She is a beautiful baby girl, born into a beautiful family!
