Sarah is so beautiful and talented! She is a senior this year and captain of her school’s dance team, and somehow balances that with rehearsals at her studio all the time, too! I loved getting to know her and enjoyed this senior session SO much! Since my seniors can choose to have a traditional session […]

Where to begin! As I sat in my office, overwhelmed with the stress of finances that always comes after blowing the budget during the holidays which was amplified by major car problems and medical bills from a fluke accident, I started to look for photos to summarize our year. I decided that I wouldn’t just […]

A month before our girl would start kindergarten, I worked diligently to teach the tiny little thing to recognize the letters “A,” “B,” and “C.” I was a licensed teacher and couldn’t do it. She could barely hold a pencil, was adamant that her name was spelled “S-O-Y-A,” and couldn’t use the bathroom on her […]

Even though we live just a few minutes from Glenwood Park, I had never been to this beautiful gazebo spot! When Mary suggested we meet there, of course I agreed, but then shortly after realized I had no idea where it was… Oops! But I’m so glad she suggested meeting there, because it is definitely […]

Carly and I have talked about doing a family shoot since this cute little thing was born, and I’m so glad she decided to do a mommy + me greenhouse session! Alaya is so cute + snuggly and I’m so glad I finally got to meet her and squeeze her! Carly chose the perfect outfits […]

I have known the Bales family since Emily was teeny tiny! I hadn’t gotten to me the newest addition to their family yet, so I was thrilled when Abby asked me to take their family photos. This was the first time EVER they’ve had professional family photos done, but they are the most photogenic and […]

Every year it is tradition at the Drake house for my mom to fix way too much food and to fill their home with people. Even though we have a small family, the house is always packed with friends, especially friends who need a home for the holidays. This year was no different! After a […]

I have known Jessica for over a decade. Whoa… I cannot believe I am at a point in my life where I can use DECADES as a point of reference for time that has past! I met her because she is the older sister of one of my best friends. The older sister who has […]
