Being that they were musicians, it seemed only natural to put Hana at the piano to pound out a 9 month old tune. She continued smiling all the way through the shoot, and it made for a beautiful day! Happy Friday!

Cake, balloons, an empty floor and a little boy. All this equals 1 big mess and a very fun photo session. This is the Nelsons 14th session from their engagement, to their wedding, the births of both children as well as their major milestones, I have been able to be a part of their lives! I have to say, they have been some of my most loyal clients. I do appreciate you and the many sessions and friendship that we all have. This session was so much fun… special thanks to Duke, their dog, who cleaned up the mess for us when we were finished!












A month ago I spent the afternoon with a great friend of mine and her baby Max. I always love photographing babies. Max was smiling the afternoon away, especially when his mommy spoke. He was melting our hearts with his beautiful grin! Here are some we were able to capture that afternoon!









It is always such a joy to see previous clients! Nikkole and Troy were married back in 2007, and I was fortunate enough to be a part of their beautiful wedding day. Early November Kate arrived gracing the Zierden home with her presence. Coming early, she gave Nikkole and Troy a great surprise. She is tiny, beautiful, and already full of spunk! (What other 7 week old can hold up her head and look completely fashionable in a bomber hat?!) Thanks Zierdens for letting me into your home!










She booked me before her C-section. Just to have those very newborn shots. I was thrilled to get together with Mary and her family again and to meet the newest member of their family. Being just 20 months apart, Marissa doted on her new baby sister and lovingly gave her kisses during the session. It was so sweet to capture.










From their engagement session, to their wedding, to the birth of their first daughter and now to their second, it’s been a joy and honor to be able to photograph couples like the Wargo’s as their life changes.
It’s what makes my job so meaningful and fulfilling! Congratulations Hannah and Jake, your family is beautiful!
Including siblings in your newborn session… yes or no?
My answer is always yes.
It might feel a little chaotic in the moment, but those are often the images you end up treasuring the most—the real connection, the tiny interactions, the beginning of a new family story.
I’ve loved watching the Luong family grow through all three of their children’s newborn sessions, and those sibling moments are always some of my favorites.
If you’re wondering how it all works (and how we make it easy), I wrote a full blog post about it! Check it out in my stories
