There’s no way to describe the Harms family without using the word “delightful”. As 2024 wrapped up we snuck in a sweet little maternity family session before their beautiful daughter arrived. The exciting news: now she’s here! Check back to see her tiny, lovely face soon. But for now, here are some snapshots of that […]

What can I say, but that I adore this little family? Since I’m a bit behind on blogging, I’ll let you in on a little secret – they’ve already added a tiny new member to the crew and I get to meet her next week! Until then, let’s swoon over their sweet family maternity session […]

When old friends let you know they’re expecting their third child, there’s only one emotional response, and that is ELATION! I am so thrilled the world gets another Thomas in it and can’t wait to ooh and aah over Tyler and Mandy’s sweet baby girl in just a few more weeks. Coralee! This girl has […]

Eeek! I am super excited for these parents to soon have TWO cutie little boys to love on. I can’t wait to meet their newest addition! Teddy, you have all the makings of an awesome big brother, you just don’t know it yet. Get ready! It’s the adventure of a lifetime. This one will make […]

The sweetest family returns to the blog today! It was so fun to be reintroduced to Sawyer in his toddler glory! I haven’t seen him since his newborn photos. Kids are AMAZING. I can never get over how much explosive change goes into each year of their lives. He’s got a sibling on the way […]

I am tempted to let this one float out into the world without words. It was such a beautiful night and needs little commentary because everything being felt in Cody and Mellissa’s lives is written on their faces. Love. Tenderness. Anticipation. A sense of being right at home with your best friend. Beautiful baby, you’re […]

Hello again, Halley, Chad  & Hattie! Having this family on the blog once again is just dreamy. This time, they’re getting ready to welcome another darling babe into the world! Halley had a clear vision for this session that highlighted her love of all things autumn and was sweet perfection for an October baby. Hattie […]

The reunion with this family was sweet! I can’t believe they’re just weeks from adding another little tiny human to their crew. The last time I saw them was still fairly early in the pandemic, and Jaxson was the tiniest baby ever, and here they are almost two years later – cute as can be! […]

They’re all set to embark on the parenting roller coaster and the seasons are changing – this double dose of transformation feels magical. Karl and Cassie, I’m delighted for all that’s headed your way! Cassie’s eyes are such an intense blue and she’s most definitely got the new mama glow about her. Little baby, there’s […]

Oh, this family could not be sweeter if they tried! We had the perfect spring evening for a little photo session to celebrate the end of their time as a family of three and the beginning of a whole new chapter that includes siblings! I am so excited for them. As you can clearly see, […]

There were such beautiful undertones in every look between John and McKenzie on this night. They are hyperaware of the changes coming their way, yet they’re so in the moment – appreciating everything about this season and filled with excitement for the next chapter for their family. Eee! I’m so excited for them! They are […]

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 […]

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 […]

Hey, hey, the McElravys are back! These three are patiently waiting for the arrival of their new family member! He is super loved already, and it’s clear he will be welcomed with so much excitement and affection. While it’s rather hard for me to believe that Harriet is already three, going on four, she made […]

Will and Elizabeth are the epitome of happiness. They are so dang cute, and they can’t help but smiling over just about everything. Do you remember their GORGEOUS – and chilly! – wedding? It’s impossible not to love them, so I was ecstatic when Liz emailed to tell me they were expecting. One set of […]

Oh goodness, this fun fun fun family is about to get even better! Baby Olson is on the way – is it February yet?? Katie and Max have these vivid, magnetic personalities that perfectly complement each other. What a duo! They already have some parenting experience with their cute pup Charlie. She is crazy-loved, so […]

Pure happiness is on it’s way for these two! Their maternity session was fun, sweet and heartwarming – despite some chilly weather. We walked around their breathtaking acreage, and I felt like I was with family, even though we’d just met. Their baby boy will be here in a matter of days – I’m so […]

Welcome back to the blog, Wirtz fam! These three are delightful human beings. That’s maybe all I even need to say in the way of commentary on these photos, but I always have more to say, so I will. The fourth delightful human being belonging to this crew will be here soon, and it […]
