Hello

The Lopez Family

A Kent Park Fall Family Shoot

Family & Kids

The last time I got to photograph Laura & Matt was at their wedding and it was so much fun to see them again, this time with their son, Theo! He is the happiest, smiliest child and the weather was so warm (much warmer than L&M’s engagement session, hah) for November. Enjoy some of my […]

The Svoboda Family

A Countryside Farm Fall Extended Family Shoot

Family & Kids

I first met all these wonderful folks at Megan and Nate’s wedding earlier this year.

The Pearson Family

Family & Kids

We had a beautiful morning for the Pearson family’s photos. My favorite part of this whole shoot is how very determinedly sassy and unmoved Gemma was. Nothing and no one could make her smile and the more we tried, the more she locked it down.

The Mulder Family

A Waterworks Prairie Park Fall Family Shoot

Family & Kids

We had the most beautiful afternoon at Waterworks Prairie Park for this family session with Ben, Martha, and Stella! This was the first time meeting the Mulder family and they were a delight. Stella is in her very self-assured and opinionated 2-year-old stage, but despite her disinterest in taking photos, look at all these smiles […]
