The Most Beautiful Bond
I have been looking forward to this session since it was scheduled. Capturing the bond between a mama and her little one makes my soul happy. I could not have imagined how much this session would touch me, though. I was in awe of Ali's gentle parenting. She was so calm and present. She marveled at her little guy's exploration and zest for life. She let him be himself and there is truly no greater gift. And little E...oh my gosh, have you ever seen such a precious little perso
Family: Where Life Begins and Love Never Ends
Ashley, Nolan, Luke and Boris (the adorable pooch) made my job so easy. They had the most infectious smiles and the love just radiated from their interactions. I can't wait to meet their new little one who will, no doubt, be so incredibly loved by mama, daddy and big brother!
And then there were three...
It was so much fun to work with this fun loving mama and daddy-to-be. They are so easy going and kind, both working in fields that help others. The connection they share is so evident and the the excitement for this new little person they will soon meet was visible throughout our time together. They are going to be the most wonderful parents and I can't wait to capture the bond they share with their little one. I know it will be every bit as spectacular as the one they share
Welcome to the World, Baby Mason!
Adam and Ashley were so gentle and loving with one another during their maternity session, I couldn't wait for their newborn session to see how all that love would be shared with their new little boy. They are such wonderful new parents - so loving, gentle and attentive and equally important, adaptable! Mason is the most precious little guy and already has such a little personality. Plus, a beautiful light filled home and adorable pets - I was in photographer heaven. Congratu
Waiting for Baby
I had so much fun with this sweet family yesterday morning. Little Estelle captivated me with her smile and her impressive plant knowledge. If you're wondering what has her smiling so big, it could be that she will be a big sister soon or it could also be that her daddy was dancing behind the camera! And her mama was so radiant and gracious. Being pregnant in 80+ degree weather is not easy but Katy is seriously stunning. This family shares so much love and this new little pea
Welcome to the World, Baby P!
I met Nikki 25 years ago when my family moved to Wisconsin when I was in middle school. We lived down the road from each other and she was gracious enough to accept me into her circle of friends because she is super kind and accepting like that. Fast forward through college, marriages and babies and she is still one of the gentlest, most easy going souls that I know. It is obvious how much she loves her boys. I don't know Chad as well as I know Nikki but watching him corral a
