These two are going to be parents. Parents!!! And very soon! This evening spent with Chris and Chrystal on their acreage, celebrating the change they’re about to experience as a family was stop-you-in-your-tracks beautiful. They couldn’t help being adorable together, Chrystal was almost literally glowing, and Nebraska served up a stunner of a sunset. It […]
Welcome back, Hall fam! I have to kick off this post with the most accurate image for how much energy these kids have. It is nonstop! It was so much fun getting reacquainted with Ariadne, Porter and Emily since the last time I saw them. Ari bowled me over with how grown up she is. […]
Time with these three kids (and of course, their parents) is sweet! I finally got to meet little Isla and get this crew some up-to-date photos that include their littlest member. Christian, Elise and Isla are three-of-a-kind for sure (Hello, three identical sets of gorgeous blue eyes!), but they are each so unique and they […]
To be with the Schnicks is to be laughing. What a fun session! The last time we did this, these kids were TINY BABY CHILDREN. Not really babies, but they were so little, so it was a wonderful to catch this glimpse into the current chapter of life with this fam. Connor and Emery are […]
The sweetest little cutie pie returns to the blog today! Caroline, I missssed you! Let’s be real, I missed the whole fam. This crew is amazing. They are vibrant, full of laughter, and they show one another the deepest, genuine affection. What’s not to love? Caroline and her daddy John share the cutest connection. They […]
I want to extend a warm blog welcome to baby Vin! He is the sweetest blue-eyed babe on the planet. You may recognize his parents Becca and Drew from their stunning fall wedding back in 2014. I was so honored and thrilled to capture this new phase of their family’s life. So many babies are […]
This family fills me up with happiness every time I see them. They are full of laughter, big emotions, and a bond with one another that’s truly unique. I have no doubt they will be a close-knit family until the end of time. This is the fifth year I’ve had the pleasure of taking their […]
This session reminds me so strongly of everything I love about being a parent. John and Ella adore their two sweet girls and are so fun, tender, patient and intentional with them. It’s such a beautiful thing to witness! Their family is full of happiness that just keeps rebounding off one person, then another, then […]
Buckle up for this one, folks! Xavian is one of the most photogenic seniors I’ve ever worked with, and we made DANG good use of Lincoln’s amazing new mural project: EmergeLNK. If you love color even half as much as I do, you’re gonna be obsessed with this shoot. Xavian has no shortage of style. […]
It’s most definitely fall, and I’ve been having so much fun with the flood of families I get to photograph this time of year. This crew is something special, and I am grateful for this peek into their unique, beautiful family. Hey there, Cora! Could you possibly squeeze more joy from a smile than this? […]
These people are like home to me. My precious nieces, heart-melting nephew, drop-dead gorgeous sister-in-law, and my beloved brother. The gang’s all here!!! I was in town visiting for such a short time, and only saw them for a few hours, but we squeezed in family photo time, and I’m so glad we did. It’s […]
I had the absolute joy of meeting this fresh baby and freezing time for his mom and dad just a little bit. A little bit goes a long way in the case of a newborn babe. I’m so glad Atlas’s mom and dad can enjoy these tiny fingernails, his wild and fuzzy hair, his tinyness […]
What a pleasure to have another fantastic senior on the blog today! Where do I begin with Eli? I have so many wonderful things to say about him. He showed up to his session ready to get to work, though it took him no effort at all to turn out all these amazing, personality-packed images. […]
I had the pleasure of photographing Thomas for the first time with his family in 2015. It was so much fun to do a Senior Session with him now, six years later! Thomas has kindness written all over his face, and has such an inviting personality. Both my favorites! I’m no golfer, but dang was […]
I can’t accurately explain the elation I feel when I see an email sitting in my inbox from former wedding clients with the word “newborn” in the title. I love people’s stories, and telling those stories through photos as the page is turned from one chapter to the next is special. It’s extra special. If […]
Oh my goodness. Buckle up for this blog post! It’s just about the best thing ever. Elmer and Johana have been together for five years, and when Johana reached out to schedule photos for them with her son Daniel, she had no idea how the night would unfold. Elmer let me know he had some […]
There was a special energy about this family on this night. They’re my kind of people! So relaxed, so themselves, so happy to be with one another. I left feeling wonderful about life and humanity. Thanks for that, Bakers! Sandie and Jim = relationship goals. I love how much fun they have together, and how […]
