Oh how I love babies!! This past week I was just thinking on how blessed I am, just about every other week this year, I have been able to meet and photograph a new little one. It is amazing how their families let me into their lives on these first precious days. Here are some of the tiny moments this sweet family let me into!








Since it is the week of love, I would LOVE to highlight those you LOVE. This week and for the rest of the month I will be highlighting families, couples, children and babies I have photographed!! Past clients, please send me a story of why you love your family, child, spouse, sweetheart and I will highlight them on my Facebook page. I will try my best to highlight every individual story that I receive!!

I’ll start with my own family and you all take it from there!
I am in love with my family. We are pretty simple and love simple things. This past summer we visited Wisconsin Dells and my kids were so excited about the watersides. Because we visited the same theme park the year before they knew what they were getting into. They quickly raced to the three slides they knew they didn’t have to wear life jackets at and we spent the majority of our morning just watching the kids go up and down these slides. The simplicity of this small event fascinated me and made me really thankful that it doesn’t take a whole lot for our kids to be entertained. That is just one small reason I just love my family!

Now you tell me your story!! I can’t wait to share the LOVE!!
Golds, reds, browns and leaves embody fall and this past fall I was able to capture some beautiful moments of this family just playing and being together. These moments are just so real and ones that I love stopping time for families to remember those crazy days of life with littles!





I just love baby girls and all the fun girly items that come along with them! This little one and her family brought me so many smiles and laughs as she totted around discovering her surroundings and looking as cute as ever in her pearls and lace!






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!
