closeBring on all those new little babies! Ashley and I met a few years back through a mutual friend and there was only Ava involved. Elsie joined their family last year and this year we celebrate another sweet little one being added to the Winge family. Stay tuned for more of his newborn session, but for now, here are some sweet maternity shots I was able to get of this family this summer!
I had the chance to meet Marissa and her sweet crew last summer. At that point her youngest wasn’t even sitting up, and for this shoot, as she celebrated turning one, we could hardly keep up with her! Now their family celebrates having both a one and three year olds! These milestones are some of my favorites!
Oh how I adore the Wenner family. Not only did I get to photograph their engagement session and wedding, but I have been able to photograph their sweet daughter throughout the years. AND in October, I am soooooo excited to connect again with their extended family as I get to photograph Nick’s cousin’s wedding. (I am pretty sure I want to be adopted into their extended family because I think they are all just such incredible people!!)
The sweet Lalos family came into the studio for a quick mini session to celebrate the milestone of their daughter tuning one and catch a family photo together! I just love mini sessions for this reason! If you are looking for a quick session to capture those milestones in your kiddos lives, I would LOVE to connect! 
I have been photographing the Sorensons for a few years now, and I am so glad I was able to see them and photograph their family for a fall family/ mini maternity session as they welcome their new little one this winter! What a gift it is over and over to see sweet families like this one! I hope to see them again this year with that new sweet little baby. If you are interested in a mini session, feel free to contact me for dates and times!
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!
If this season is coming up for you, I’d love to connect
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.
