I had the honor of photographing Mike and Nicki’s wedding a few years ago, so you can imagine how excited I was when they asked if I would do a mini session of their first son. Born in the spring, we had to capture him among the blooms of the season.
Just as the trees had begun raining their beautiful, fragrant blooms to the earth, we captured the newness of life as it also came to the earth!
What a blessing to see families like the Franks throughout so many wonderful seasons of life!
Having three kiddos is not easy, but Lauren and Josiah made it look like there was nothing to it!
I met them at the incredible Arneson Acres (one of my all time favorite places to shoot) and once there, we wandered the gardens laughing, playing and taking a few photos in between!
We had to capture individuals of all the kiddos and even little Stian gave us a few smiles.
We ended at the fountain and the kids splashed and found games to play with one another and getting each other wet in the mean time! What a fabulous day it was and I am so thankful for families like the Larsen’s.
It is truly a gift to see family’s year after year, and Christy and Brian are one of them I have been photographing Zoe since she was born. This sweet family visited me in the studio and we had such a great time laughing and being together. This little one is full of spunk and energy and I hope to continue to watch her grow through the years!
Can I bring my dog to my session?! Please, please and of course! Jennifer brought sweet Oakley to their fall session and he was a little sweetie. I love it when couples bring their pets to their sessions, and I am so glad we captured Oakley!
Seeing the sweet Olson family made me so incredibly happy!. It was a perfect day for their family session and little Zoe, with her sweet grin, made the photos all worth it!
We made our way through the forest and then to the field, laughing all the way! What a great joy it was to see them all again!
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!
