we could not have asked for a more perfect night. the lighting, the weather, the trees and these two. there is just something about two people who are truly in love.

i am the momma to two beautiful sweet little ladies. but man, let me tell you, working with boys is my favorite. the energy, the spunky and the fun. these two boys are always so sweet, and light up my night. and it is just a bonus that they have a pretty awesome mommy.
thanks guys for letting me take your pictures, again, and again.

you guys, they brought puppies {puppies is the term i use for all dogs}. animals are absolutely family members and are always more than welcome to attend family sessions. this family was super fun to work with, even if not everyone was as excited about pictures are mom was.
i can not stress enough how important family pictures are to me. thanks for taking the time to hang out with me and capture your family. ❤

my best friend growing up had the most amazing red hair… so when i met libby i was instantly in love with her gorgeous fiery locks. turns out as soon as you meet her, her sweet personality begins to outshine her beautiful hair. {and her art, is also pretty spectacular <3}.
it was so great working with you sweet girl.

almost four years ago, a near and dear friend asked my to take her family pictures. i had no idea what she was doing… but i said yes. i loved taking their photos {and i still do at least once a year}.
a little back story, about a year before this, we had lost our first baby. and since i was young i have wanted to adopt, my dear husband has known this since before we began dating. we had always said, we would have two and adopt our third. well trying to conceive our second was much harder than planned. feeling called to adopt at this point in our lives was a hard pill to swallow… we needed to have two first. after much prayer and continued feelings of peace. we dove in. while knee deep in the beginning processes of adoption, we suffered another miscarriage as well as an ectopic pregnancy, landing me in emergency surgery. i was so angry. we were doing what God asked and were being hit with one road block and than another. we threw ourselves into the adoption process and about a year and a half later, we got the call. a sweet baby boy was due in a month.
photography was and still is a way for us to raise the funds needed to cover the {sometimes} overwhelming adoption costs.
without getting into that long and hard story. fifteen months later, our little man left our home and our lives. our adoption had failed. we were so broken, more broken than we have ever been. we leaned on each other and so many amazing supports. we cuddled our sweet girls in close and grieved the loss of our son. the healing process has been rough.
but our hearts are ready. our home is ready.
::if you or anyone you know is thinking about adoption:: feel free to pass along our info.

i pulled into the parking lot, this park is breathtaking. bridges, water, trees, and the lighting. then i meet this sweet senior to be, and she is also beautiful. what more could i ask for… well, she was also a ton of fun.
“this is the beginning of anything you want.”
have a wonderful senior year, hun.

when i first found out about this little boy, my heart almost exploded with joy. i hold this precious family very near and dear to my heart. it was by hard circumstances that we met and beautiful life events that we remain in contact. and my goodness look at how perfect their little family is. i had such an amazing time during this session. this little lady and all her energy, all while her tiny brother slept the afternoon away. mom and dad embracing the fleeting moments.
thank you. thank you for allowing me to come into your home and capture these moments. thank you for supporting me, both with my photography and in life.
