It takes a little something extra to get me excited about much in January (I’m a summer person through and through). This year, I’ve got it all taken care of because I get to look forward to photographing these two on their wedding day! God brought these two together in the cutest of ways, kicked […]

It’s my NIECE & NEPHEWS! I honestly adore all the families I photograph so much, but having my sister’s family on the blog? Next level excitement!!! Yes, they are every bit as spunky and mischievous and sweet and cute as they appear in this photo. It’s been a couple years since I last photographed these […]

Oh happy day, the Janssens are back! They’ve added a person, and their other little person got a lot bigger since the last time we did photos. All this change looks good on you, Mike & Laura! Lila! This sweet girl’s sunny and inquisitive personality is contagious. She seems to always be thinking and determining […]

My time with this crew was far too short. I miss these college friends of mine so much, but even if it’s just for an hour, it sure is fun to see them parent these three awesome kiddos! I’ve spent photo time with both big sisters, but this was the first time I’ve photographed little […]

Put yourself in my shoes for a moment and imagine me meeting this wonderful family of families at our location, and as four different cars pull up, cute children just keep pouring out of their carseats and I’m a swooning pile of happiness to see these teeny, darling cousins ready for fun. I looooooove my […]

Will and Liz were married surrounded by their families and friends, with joy spilling over from one person to the next. Liz, the stunning bride, with help from her sisters and her mom, did not have a single […]

We’re kicking this session off with one child making fart noises on his arm while his big sister laughs hysterically – buckle up, it’s a good one! But seriously, this family is not just beautiful, they are stunning. Last time I saw them was taking Eli’s newborn photos! I loved catching up with them. These […]

Eight! This is the eighth time I’ve photographed this family. Eight??! These four have my heart, and watching their family grow and enter brave new stages makes me want to explode with happiness. Part one of why I love them: Chris and Zeljka’s sense of humor with one another and life in general. They are […]

Romantic sweetness has filled each session with these three. They are adorable – and never so more than now with three-month-old Delphine in the mix! Look how much she’s changed since her newborn session in June!! This blue-eyed girl is three months old, and full of curiosity that manifests itself in her expressive eyebrows. Big […]

It is ALWAYS a wonderful day when I get to have a little of this family in it. They are sunshine and magic and laughter – who doesn’t need a little of that each day? Both Alyvia and Brooklyn are chomping at the bit to grow up. They are (were?) amazing as little ones and […]

This is Ben. Everybody say, “Hiiiii, Ben!” He is ready to graduate this spring! We ran around taking his senior photos the other night, and I came away so impressed by him. He is quiet, confident, direct, poised and thoughtful. I don’t get to hang out with a lot of seniors, but if the world […]

It was so heart-warming to hang out with this crew. Liam has every one of the adults in these photos wrapped around his little finger, and he so deserves all their attention. He’s a wild heart with the most adorable grin, and he was so much fun to photograph. See? He’s the star. Caitlin’s parents […]

Say hello to Kennex! He’s excited to be here! If you missed it (gosh, I hope not!), there are photos of his first day in the world here. Stop, go shed tears of happiness over his cuteness, then come back and resume the second dose below. 😀 I love both these images. He is such […]

Baby Kennex is here! He has been here a few weeks, actually, and these photos are from his very first hours. What a sacred place to be – in this room, seeing first breaths, witnessing first meetings with a sister and grandparents – it’s something to cherish. I had planned to share just a few […]

It just doesn’t seem possible for Henrietta to be turning one already! I could not wait to see this little bug again. She is so darn cute, so fierce, and so into her parents (for obvious reasons). I’d hang out with this crew any day of the week. 🙂 Sasha is the best photo-bombing dog […]

Miss Caroline is back! I have had the privilege of doing sessions every three months with this sweet pea and her parents, and I’m so sad there’s only one more left! That means Caroline is turning one soon, and she is just as amazing as ever. I’m definitely going to miss our little check-ins. 🙂 […]

Sound the sirens: cute baby alert! Oh my goodness, Rhonan had my full attention the moment I walked into Michaela and Chris’s adorable Omaha home. The magic of seeing a fresh, new family of three getting used to their new normal absolutely never gets old. I’m so excited for these three! I got to hear […]
