These sweet kiddos have grown so much since we first met! One of my favorite things is watching returning families grow and getting to know everyone. It’s so special! This year, these little loves romped in the grass, played on the playground, twirled in bubbles and snuggled with their parents. It was so wonderful to […]

Oh my word, this maternity session was so much fun! Lucy is such an awesome little person. And I’m so glad we were able to take maternity photos for these 3, soon-to-be 4! Lauren was feeling like baby could arrive at any moment, so she let me know I should text the day of, just […]

New babies are the sweetest! On this gorgeous, sunny summer night, I got to hang out with these four lovelies on the lakeshore. We wandered down the winding path to the lakefront and Genevieve showed off her amazing rock climbing skills with a little help from her dad. There was a lot of cuddling, a […]

I love when I get to explore new locations that I’ve never ventured to before. Especially when that location holds special meaning to the family I get to meet there! Morgan, Nick and their sweet little ones showed me a beautiful spot overlooking the lake and a ton of sailboats. We were lucky enough on […]

This cute girl is turning one today! Last week, I had the pleasure of meeting her sweet family at the beach and the park for some sweet first birthday and family photos. She experienced sand for the first time and was fascinated by the feel of it on her cute little toes! She snuggled with […]

She was three weeks old during our session and determined not to miss a moment. Can you believe those gorgeous eyes? What […]

What a stunningly beautiful day! I recently had the pleasure of capturing some family portraits for my sweet friend, Niki and Chivas, before their Wisconsin wedding reception. They married this summer, near their home in Indiana. But, because they have family both there and here, they celebrated with love and family in both places! A […]

I love summer. I love late summer nights, crickets, stars, and the seemingly endless array of fun things to do with your kiddos in the Madison summertime. When I met up with Colleen and Jesse and their adorable little ones at the park after dinner on a stunningly beautiful night, we had so much fun! […]

Oh Summer! Full of flowers and time spent traveling and time with family. I had this pretty flower crown from an anniversary shoot I did for me with another photographer (made by Naly’s Floral Shop on the northside). I stuck it in the fridge overnight and let the kids go to town with it the […]
