Christmas Limited Edition Sessions

Christmas Limited Edition sessions are here! A cute gingerbread-inspired cottage with lots of lights, sparkle, and snow will definitely get you in the Christmas spirit. Whether you need a Christmas card photo, a gift idea for grandparents, new decor for your walls or mantel, or you just want to have a little bit of Christmas […]

This month is all about baseball and softball for our family! Even though I take photos of our softball team before the season starts, my girls really wanted more photos of themselves. So of course, I made my Legion ball player put on his uniform too! If you have multiple kids, I can take some […]

The 4th of July is my favorite holiday and I just had to buy this backdrop once I saw it! My girls LOVED this – I mean, classic treats and sparklers? What could be better? We start out with Bomb Pops, Little Debbie snacks, and classic Coca-Cola. Then, we’ll play with some sparklers (spoiler alert […]

I love that I get to take all the sports photos for our local school – Heartland Community Schools – especially now that my kids are in junior high and high school! All photos are free to download and share; there is also a store attached to the gallery where you can order prints or […]

Photography literally means “painting with light”. Good light can make or break a photo.

Awesome maternity photo session!! Cody was really easy to work with, and she totally understood that a 2 year old may not sit in a pose for longer than 1 second!! I would totally recommend her for any photo needs!!! I will plan to use her again in the near future!!!

Each time I am blown away at what she catches! Her eye for seeing a different perspective always surprises me when I get pictures back! I would recommend her over and over. You get quality memories and nothing ever gets complicated. It all feels very comfortable and laid back during the shoots.

Does it sound desperate if I beg you to hire me for a storytelling newborn session? Yes? Well…I’m begging all of you with newborns to do a storytelling session, because I really really love them. I know it’s not quite “a thing” yet and you’re probably too sleep deprived to even think about getting your […]

Meet my niece, Whitney! She was born at the end of January and it is so fun to have a baby in the family again! This makes 8 cousins: 3 boys and 5 girls. My kids aren’t super interested in babies, but they really like hanging out with their 2-year-old cousin now that she can […]
