The H Family | An Equine Session

I’ve been quite excited to share this session. Having grown up with horses, they have a special place in my heart, so when this mom approached me about doing a special session with her girls and their four-legged beauties, I was more than happy to oblige!

We had a gorgeous day to capture these special moments. The light was just amazing! Check them out!

Miss G | A Fall Session

The fabulous Miss G is growing up entirely too quickly. I’ve been photographing her since before she was walking, and now she is quite an amazing young woman! Being able to watch these little ones grow, and capturing these moments, is such a special opportunity that never gets old. Check out the wonderful Miss G!!

S + O | Mommy & Me Session

I have known S for close about 6 years now. We have a rather unique situation…for 4 of those years, she cared for my daughter, always communicating with me and had her best interests at heart. I am so grateful that she put so much love into her time with G. Her daughter, O, is my daughter’s half-sister. S and I have become friends over the last few years and I am so thankful for our friendship!! I did a session with these two lovely ladies over the summer and we made sure to get some of the girl's together, as well. <3

R + C | A Sibling Session

I love watching my young clients grow up! I first photographed R when he was just 10 months old! He is growing into such a sweet young man, and is now joined by his younger brother in our sessions! The boys played in the leaves and we all had such a good time. Naturally, I made mom jump in for a shot or two, as well. Mamas, don’t forget….you will NEVER regret being in pictures with your kids!!!!

Miss G | A Fall Children's Session

I have been photographing the lovely Miss G since she was just 9 months old. There is something so magical about having the opportunity to watch little ones grow, and being able to capture those different stages of life, year after year. I really feel honored. Miss G has grown into a pretty amazing young lady. Her parents have done an outstanding job, and I can’t wait to see what she accomplishes in life!

The D Family | A Fall Family Session

It’s St. Patrick’s Day! What a better way than to celebrate by blogging a good Irish surname?! This adorable family joined me at Davenport Fruit Farm in the fall for some family pictures. What a beautiful day for a beautiful family!

The P Family | A Fall Family Session

I met with the P family one beautiful fall day at a local apple orchard. Mom wanted some updated images of the three children, so we spent some time playing between the rows of trees. The light was SO gorgeous and I was thrilled with how the images turned out. I hope mom was, too!!

Grandchildren Love | An Extended Family Session

Lauren reached out to me to photograph her sweet grandchildren over the summer. As you can imagine, trying to find a day when everyone is available can be quite a challenge. When some stars aligned and she was able to gather the three boys at the same time, we took full advantage! There were some smiles, some tears, and LOTS of animal crackers! Would we have it any other way?!

Miss M | A Headshot Session

This little lady has been rocking the pageant scene and was in need of some headshots, so we met up one beautiful afternoon. Let me tell you…this one has sass and knows how to work a camera! Her sweet baby brother also snuck in for a few shots. He is SO funny…such a character!! What a fun day!

The M Boys

I had a nice fall session scheduled with this mom and two boys. Normally, in October, we deal with some cool temps, maybe even some rain. Well, not this day. On this particular day, it was HOT. Mom had chosen some really cute outfits, complete with button-ups, sweaters, and cords…not knowing it would be a whopping 90 degrees. OOPS! We did grab some shots of the boys in their dressier outfits, but we ALSO let them cool off in their pretty sweet t-shirts, too. Win-win! Of course, I made mom get in a few frames, too. Moms…you will NEVER regret having pics with your kids!!!

The M Children | A Fall Session

These three kiddos were SO much fun to work with. They each had their own ideas for the session and I loved it! Mom was going to sit this one out, but the kids and I convinced her to get in the frame. Moms…GET IN THE PICTURE!! They’re only little for a short time. You will NEVER regret having those memories. Even if it’s just a shot or two…DO IT!!

Fall can provide a gorgeous backdrop for photography, and this family session was no exception. The A’s were so much fun! I loved being able to watch the boys play, and getting to know mom and dad. We had an absolutely perfect day, too! Here is a glimpse into our time together! Thank you, A family, for choosing me to capture you!

Miss G

I have had the opportunity to photograph this brave, adventurous young lady since she was just nine months old. I can't begin to tell you how amazing it is to watch these little ones grow up. The time is so fleeting and they change SO much from year to year...being able to capture these moments is priceless.
