Oh Hey... it's me! I've been in the trenches of editing for the last month! haha 🤣

I promise I'm still here and taking clients, I've just been blessed with an incredibly busy Spring season.

I have photographed over 500 kiddos between preschools and sports and it has been so much fun. Speaking of, if you are a preschool or a sports team send me a message and I can fill you in on all of my photo day details! My business is growing in that direction and I absolutely love it. ♥

A few people have reached out for family sessions recently, and I'll be resuming sessions in June. I'm giving myself a little time to get caught up on all the things and finish out my own children's sports seasons because if you know, you know!

The best part is, I'll be making. calendar with all of my summer availability so that you can easily look at the dates and times I'm available and coordinate with your own schedule.

In the meantime, check out this gorgeous Mama! Not only did I photograph their maternity session, I also got to meet their brand new baby boy today for his newborn session.

I have been a little quiet over here this week as I am busy working on all Spring galleries!

If you joined me on 3/14, all galleries have been delivered. If you haven't seen your gallery please reach out as sometimes they go to spam or up in space somewhere. 🤣

If you joined me on 3/28, I am working hard to get those galleries delivered in the next day or so. A big Thank You to everyone who joined me!

Another beautiful newborn gallery delivered to Mom + Dad! 🌟🌟

My newborn sessions are all inclusive... meaning you don't have to think about what to bring or even how to dress before you arrive at my studio!

Everything you see here (minus Dad's clothing) came from my studio. I take the guess work out of how to coordinate a session that produces a gallery that is cohesive.

A cohesive gallery allows you to display your beautiful photos in your home together, with any type of decor or furnishings!

There is something so special about simple. 💕

SPRING IS HERE! 🌸🌸

A new season brings new opportunities to capture some adorable family moments, and I need your help planning my schedule!

I was considering a Mother's Day Pop In at my studio tenatively on Saturday, April 25th. I'm thinking light and airy with some florals, something very simple. I get to photograph so many of your kiddos, I'd love to get Mom in the photos too! 💕

Is there interest for something like this? Let me know in the comments! ✅ If I have enough interest I will get some samples and a sign up set up!

ALSO... if you joined me for this past weekend for my Spring Pop In, I am working hard to get galleries out. If you haven't seen yours yet, no worries, it is coming soon!

I've seen so many posts on Facebook groups that go a little something like this....

"I hired a newborn photographer and they canceled on me last minute. Is anyone else available?"

I'm not bashing any other photographers, but sometimes reliability is just as important as skill level and talent! 🌟🌟

I understand that occasionally things come up. However, I can tell you that in 10+ years doing this I have NEVER left a client hanging to find someone else after their baby has already arrived!

Additionally, there are very few newborn sessions that I've had that were rescheduled. If they were, it was because of snow or the client feeling unwell.

With all that being said, when you book me and I tell you to reach out when baby arrives, I can promise you I will never, ever leave you hanging! If I say I'm doing a session, I'm 100% doing the session.

Not just because I LOVE my clients, but also because I would never want to put another parent in that type of situation.

If you are expecting in 2026, I'd love to be your newborn photographer!

I had a busy week photographing a preschool at the beginning of the week, and ending the week with Spring Pop In sessions! This was the first time I was offering 10 minute time slots and I felt things ran so smoothly. I also got lots of exercise running up and down my studio steps that are old and slightly steep. 🤣

This was also the first time I was offering a second set upstairs at my studio and it worked really well! A big THANK YOU to all the families who joined me! 💕

Random photo from my camera roll! ❤️ My oldest and youngest because how cute are these two?!

Just a quick announcement… I’ll be out of office for the next few days/possibly slow to respond to clients for the remainder of the week.

We had a medical emergency that turned life threatening over the weekend that resulted in an undiagnosed Type 1 diabetes diagnosis for one of our children. Scary doesn’t begin to explain the feelings!

He is still in the hospital and my brain is also digesting this information, because it is a lot all at once to process!

If you have a session scheduled, no worries! It will still take place as scheduled. If you have any questions or are waiting for a gallery I may be a bit slower to respond.

Thank You for your understanding!
