I love family photo sessions so much! It’s such a joy to get to know new families or to watch families grow over the years. You may be wondering, why use the terms storytelling or lifestyle? The idea is to capture your family in its everyday beauty, right now. In the simple, connected moments that make life so amazing in this stage.

Happy birthday to this cute boy! I can’t believe he’s a year already! It’s been such a joy to watch this little babe grow from his newborn session, to his 6 month photos, to now.

I just love snuggly newborns and baby Norah is so incredibly adorable! I mean, look at this sweet babe. My cousin Kelley, her wife Lauren, and their son Jackson have grown their family by one adorable little human this fall.

Photos are such a sweet way of capturing growth, change, and history. For these Jennifer, Roberto and their sweet boys, our session was this beautiful mix of remembering and honoring family legacy as well as looking forward to their new home. We took pictures in front of important places in their home that were meaningful […]

What a beautiful evening at Tenney Park with Ali, Sandy and their adorable littles! It was one of those chilly fall nights, but you’d never guess, the girls did so well. The month of October has been so very cloudy, I’m so happy we got to take advantage of a gorgeous, golden, fall sunset. And […]

I had the luck of reconnecting with an old friend and her adorable family! It was chilly and her little ones did so beautifully! They snuggled and were just the cutest! Because […]
