Dillon | children/milestones

I had a great time photographing Dillon’s 18 month session!  Usually I do not travel for mini sessions unless it’s a scheduled mini location session day.  However, Dillon was scheduled to be photographed for his 18 month session while my entire family had the viral crud that has been going around.  Being the germaphobe individual that I am, I went to their beautiful home:o)  Dillon and I had so much fun.  He even got me to sing songs and he is probably the first person ever to ask me to sing more!  LOL  It’s so much fun watching all the little tots grow up!

We have never had a family photo taken in 12yrs. I would be honored to be apart of one of your sessions.

PhotoFUSION fun with the Holton Family

I had so much fun capturing this time in the Holton’s lives this past summer!  Check out the post with the sneak peek of their images here. These kids are FULL of PERSONALITY and I thrive off that!  I cannot say enough great things about photofusion sessions.  There is just something magical about seeing those still images mixed with life in motion video clips that just melt my heart!  I do this for my family often, but never often enough. Just watch, you’ll see why, I guarantee you will giggle/laugh at least once when you watch this!

Lil Miss Kiera | maternity and newborn sessions

If you have followed my work for a couple years, Michelle and Brandt are no strangers to having their images captured by me. We started our journey out with their engagement session then on to their BEAUTIFUL wedding and now they are a family of THREE!!! I am so excited for them. They are so incredibly sweet and are such wonderful parents!  It is no surprise they would be though, you should see them with their nieces and nephews, they could definitely be recipients of a BEST AUNT and UNCLE award!


Kiera is so stinking CUTE!!! Love all her strawberry blonde hair! And her petite little features. So stinking CUTE!!!
