Toddlers and preschoolers, they get me every time. So cute and curious. I got to meet this lovely family and play in the studio with them, exploring all the fun things it can offer. I can’t wait to see more of them in the future and move and groove along with them!!
I love spring. And I love family sessions in spring! What a joy it is to take our kiddos out into the warmth of the sun and have the simple joy of walking and playing at the park. That is exactly what I did with the sweet Horning family!
Oh how I love the cake smash. You never know what you are going to get when you put a cake in front of a one year old. Sometimes it is the messy mash and (like this case!) bug crocodile tears! Evelyn was a trooper, but when we put that cake in front of her, the waterworks came out. But even when she cried, she was still a cutie pie!!
Spring has sprung and I am SO thankful!! Here is one of my favorites from last year of the trees and flowers in full bloom with one of my favorite families that I have been photographing since their oldest was one! I can not wait to be breathing in these heavenly scents very soon!
And just a quick reminder, if you have not yet scheduled your May mini session, the Rose Gardens are just one of the two locations I will be shooting at this year and hopefully (fingers crossed!) it will be just as lovely this year!! Feel free to e-mail for more information and to see what slots are still available!
Jumping, running, playing and smiling. All things I LOVE about toddlers and boys! It was so wonderful to see this sweet family again this spring and capture the essence of this sweet period of time!
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!
