What a sweet family! Ariadne, the cutest one-year-old on the block, turned ONE just the day before we took these. She was very busy doing big girl, one-year-old things throughout the session, like peek-a-boo, funny faces and sounds, clapping, showing off her big personality, and looking cute, of course. Basically, she killed it. 🙂 I love […]

It was painful, PAINFUL, I TELL YOU, to only choose a handful of photos for this blog post. Addison pretty much turned each picture into gold throughout our entire time together, and her infectious smile brings a matching one to my face every time I look at these. What a sweetheart! Addison is the ultimate […]

I can sum up the evening that produced these photographs with just a few words: Mischief. Dancing. Sunshine. Sisters. Does it get much better than that? Thank you so much, Nykodym fam, for such a fun time!

He has incredibly impressive design skills, and I have him to thank for teaching me so much over my time as a web designer. I finally had a chance to get to know […]

Oh, this family. Chris and Kara have gifted the world by bringing five little Proctor children into it. Each one of them is a total delight and sweet as can be. As far as I know, everyone just kind of adores the whole crew. So the other day we made some photo magic, ran around […]

Welcome to the world, sweet baby girl! You couldn’t be one ounce more precious. I don’t have too many words when it comes to newborn sessions. Every single little one is such a unique, beautiful creation, and I think it’s best to just admire each tiny feature in happy silence. Shhhh… Thank you, Callens, for letting […]

I’m a little partial concerning these people. This is my brother’s family, and I could not be more proud to call them mine. Are they not adorable?! I swear, I did not make my sweet niece’s eyes that blue in Photoshop. If you’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting her, you know they’re the real deal. The […]

These two (soon to be three!) are dear friends. You know the kind of people you once-upon-a-time thought would be so great for each other, and as it turns out after a bowl of ice cream and some conversation at your house, they thought so, too? They’re those kinds of people. They are kind, generous […]

erik & jenna: part 1

Posted in Wedding

July 26, 2014 was beautiful. I met Jenna through friends at church around the same time she started working at the advertising agency where I work. People kept telling me I would really like her, and they were spot on. She is, as the pastor said during their ceremony: “One laid back chicken.” She and […]
