closeMelissa took advantage of getting her son’s 2 best friends and their families together for a short and sweet session. It was a workout for me following these three 2 year around the Walker, but totally worth it for the photos we got of them at this age!
The weekend was MINE! I could not wait for Saturday morning at 9. I stopped at Caribou to grab my favorite drink (Vanilla 2% Latte; hey life is short!) and headed over to a weekend that I had bee waiting for since December. No kids, no responsibilities, it was all mine to share with 7 of my best girl friends! I had every intention to do this fabulous blog post when I knew we were headed to a Bed and Breakfast, but of course we hardly ever get to see each other, and the camera was in my hands for less than 5 minutes. Needles to say, there were some personalities captured that bring out my favorite traits in my friends. I just love this photo, basically sums up our weekend. Lots of laughing, gabbing, eating and more gabbing. I love all of you and can not wait for another weekend that will totally be mine with you!
Happy weekend! Share it gabbing with someone you love!
Dare I say it again, I just love babies! And I love photographing them in their environment! One of my very good friends delivered Olive on Christmas Eve, and after the holiday’s I was able to go and meet this little peanut. Trish and I were art majors together and I was so inspired by the way she decorated the nursery. Her husband also painted a piece for Olive before she was born, and after a few attempts, we were able to get a happy, warm baby to lay on the precious piece! I am looking forward to watching this little one grow into a beautiful girl.

It wasn’t rare to fine the two of them in the laundry room together, folding laundry or doing homework. In a two bedroom apartment filled with 5 college aged girls, it was hard to find any place that was quiet for a long period of time. And an apartment filled with 5 guys was was just out of the question. So they met in the laundry room. I’m pretty sure dates progressed over the course of months, but I knew that when the phone rang for Abbey and she was missing, I could usually find here there with her “friend” Brandon.
I was one of those five college roommates, and was also fortunate enough to get to know Abbey my freshman year of college. I have to say that over the years, she has become such a sweet friend to me, and I have marveled in the way her and Brandon do life, ministry and marriage together. When Brandon called to ask if I would be included in a gift to Abbey to celebrate their anniversary, I was thrilled. I love you both so much, and can not wait to see what 2011 brings you! I just know it is gonna be a good one.
I love having the awesome privilege of photographing freshly born babies. Adeline was the newest baby I have ever photographed. Still in the hospital at 24 hours, she encountered her first full photo shoot, and many more will come as she is one of 4 beautiful children of my best friend. I simply can not wait to see her grow into the little girl God has made her to be!
No one said you had to do newborn photos inside! Taking lifestyle newborn photos outside and making them true to your style makes them even more meaningful and significant!!
“When should we schedule newborn photos?”
If you’re expecting (whether it’s your first baby or you’re adding to your crew), this is one of the most common questions I get
The sweet spot?
7–14 days after your baby arrives
Those early days are something special…
Your baby is still sleepy, snuggly, and curled up in that fresh, just-born way—and it changes so quickly.
But here’s what matters just as much:
You don’t have to go anywhere.
My newborn sessions take place in your home whether it’s a quiet morning with your first baby or a full, beautifully busy house with siblings running around.
No pressure. No perfect expectations.
Just your family, exactly as you are in this season.
If you’re thinking about newborn photos, I recommend reaching out during your second trimester so I can save space around your due date
I shared more about what to expect (and why timing matters) over on the blog link is in my bio!

On this gorgeous spring day, I find myself reliving Connor and Kristen’s wedding at Bavaria Downs.
An effortlessly timeless celebration layered with refined details, soft summer light, and a kind of beauty that never asks for attention, it simply exists. Every moment felt intentional, elegant, and deeply meaningful… the kind of day that lingers long after it’s over.
Truly, a wedding that defines what it means to be both classic and unforgettable.
If you’re envisioning a day that feels elevated, seamless, and entirely your own, I would be honored to document it.
