This week’s theme is Hand’s on. Have to say I think this is one of my favorite themes so far hands down ( i know, too funny…), got my creative juices going. Here is a photo from one of my very favorite shoots back in the fall. Hands on to love, life, and togetherness.

Any stage a child goes through is truly amazing, but one of my very favorite stages is from 9-18 months. Babies are growing out of that very baby stage and transitioning into little toddlers with little personalities. They are discovering the world around them and taking it all in. Little Audrey is no exception, she is ready to strut her stuff and show off her independence…. when she gets that walking thing down. At 12 months, she was a smiling machine and had some of her own ideas in mind! I love hanging out with the Junkers, they are truly amazing people and parents. I can not wait to watch this little one grow into this very loving family.
Karen, they are wonderful. I love, love, love the black and white profile. I can’t wait to see the rest.
My sweet little Audrey is all grown up and in 8th grade now. Bless her soul.
I just can’t get over how wonderful these photos are. Audrey is soo old now and in Highschool! What a gorgeous young girl destined for greatness! I’m so happy to have known her so many years!
I had the opportunity to head to the warmth of the Como Conservatory this weekend for some family shots. Before it got too crowded, I was able to snap some photos of the beautiful Pederson family and their girls. Their youngest was full of smiles and beauty, while their almost 2 year old ran around exploring the area while keeping me running. ( I love this stage!) Gail brought her daughter’s christening gown handcrafted with Irish antique fabric by her sister in Ireland. I just about died from the uniqueness of this gown. Photos do not do it justice, it was beautiful! This family was such a joy to work with and to get to know! Thanks for letting me into your world!
I love babies. I just do. I literally go ga-ga over them. They are so beautiful and wonderful to hold, smell, watch, love on, and to photograph. Even when they are crying, they are adorable. I had the wonderful privilege of photographing this beautiful little baby girl as a part of the February promos. She was extremely easy going and even gave her mommy a few smiles throughout the session. I am scheduled to do another session with this wonderful family in the spring and I can not wait to see the progress this little one has made. (She was already standing with her mommy’s help at 3 months!) I love it!
And this is where we ended. I thought this was an extremely sweet moment that mother and daughter were sharing. Many hopes for more of these times to come.
[…] I have done for this adorable little girl. What fun it has been to photograph her at 3 months (Here) 6 months (Here) and now at 9 months! It is always a joy to be a part of clients lives throughout […]
Katie Nick’s June wedding at Seven Vines Vineyard was the perfect blend of timeless elegance and joyful celebration. From the classic black-and-white wedding party attire to the dreamy golden hour portraits among the vines, every detail felt effortlessly sophisticated.
Surrounded by their favorite people and endless love, these two kicked off married life in the most beautiful way.

Baby Mary has arrived and is already so deeply loved by Nicole and Aaron.
I’ve had the true honor of photographing this family since their oldest was born over 16 years ago, and watching their story grow through each new season has been something really special. From newborn snuggles to busy, full family life being invited back again and again is something I never take for granted.
This family is deeply rooted in the world of forage, county fairs, and raising and showing lambs and sheep, so it only felt fitting to include a little lamb hat for baby Mary’s first photos. A small nod to a big part of their life and traditions.
Welcome to the world, sweet girl
Spring soirée perfection.
Rob and Sarah’s wedding day was a beautiful blend of faith, family, and thoughtful design. Inspired by Monet’s garden paintings, their celebration was filled with soft spring colors, meaningful heirlooms, and intentional details at every turn.
After a joyful ceremony at Eagle Brook Church, surrounded by family and friends, they celebrated the night away at Silverwood Park with beautiful florals, heartfelt speeches, lakeside portraits, and dancing.
One of my favorite details? Sarah changed into her mother’s wedding dress for the reception, while flowers made from that same gown were sewn into her veil.
Congratulations, Rob and Sarah!
