It’s National 4-H Week! 🍀

I wanted to take this opportunity to look back on this past summer and showcase the hard work, dedication, and accomplishments of these amazing 4-H members! From domestic arts projects to pigs, horses, and everything in between, these kids put countless hours of hard work into preparing for their county fairs and showing off everything they’ve learned throughout the year.

But 4-H is about so much more than projects and ribbons. It’s about responsibility, leadership, perseverance, building friendships, and learning life skills that stick with you long after the fairgrounds are empty. Behind every project is a young person who has put in the time, effort, and heart to make it something they can be proud of.

4-H played a huge role in shaping who I am today, and it will always hold a special place in my heart. Having grown up in the show barn myself, I know just how much time, dedication, and love go into these projects and how meaningful those fair week memories become.

I’m so grateful that I get to be on the other side of the camera, capturing these special moments for 4-H members and their families to look back on for years to come. From the excitement of the show ring to the little moments in between, these are the memories that deserve to be remembered.

Here’s to celebrating the hard work, growth, and accomplishments of every 4-H member this week and all year long!

Happy National 4-H Week!

Okay, but can we talk about how quickly these seasons of life go by?

The kids grow. The seniors graduate. Families change. Life keeps moving.

That’s why I love photography — freezing a little piece of right now so you can remember it later.

My calendar is open for more sessions and I would LOVE to work with you!

The Henady family 🤍

This was truly a dream session! Can you believe it was raining when we first started? We lucked out and were gifted with such a beautiful evening to capture this sweet family and celebrate their newest addition — their precious baby girl!

And these boys were the absolute sweetest and most perfect kids you could ask for during a photoshoot! They were ready to get their pictures taken without a single complaint, and they even threw in some ideas of their own.

I’m so thankful I got to capture this special season for the Henady family and document all the love, joy, and excitement that comes with welcoming a new little one.

Thank you all SO much for all of your interest in my harvest minis this year! I’m so happy to say that they are officially FULLY BOOKED!

But don’t worry if you’re still wanting harvest photos! You are more than welcome to book one of my regular sessions and we can still capture all those beautiful fall vibes.

I still have some availability left this fall, but my remaining dates are limited! If you’ve been thinking about getting on my calendar, now is the time to message me!

Thank you all so much for your continued support of my little photography business. Every booking, share, recommendation, and kind word truly means more to me than you know!

🚨ONE SPOT AVAILABLE

For the farming families…

As a special thank-you to the farming families who work so hard throughout the year, I’m offering Harvest Minis at a special price — because you deserve beautiful photos too, without having to commit to a long session during the busiest time of year.

I know those farmers in your life can sometimes be a little hard to cooperate for a long family session 😉 So these 10-minute sessions are a great way to still capture those special moments without taking up too much of their time.

Whether you want family portraits, action shots, or even just everyone gathered around the truck beds eating their field meals, this is the perfect session for you!

And the best part? We’ll be taking the photos right in the fields — the place they’re most proud of. I have a feeling they might cooperate a little better there!

$100 | 10 minutes | digital downloads | up to 5 people

I’m only offering 8 spots at this discounted rate, so get in while you can!

Want to include more than 5 people or would you like a longer session? You are more than welcome to upgrade to a longer session! Those sessions will be priced at my regular session rates, just like they would be for any other family.

PLEASE NOTE: To qualify for the special $100 pricing, your photos MUST take place in your fields — other locations will not apply.

Travel fees may apply for locations outside of my normal service area.

If you’re a farming family or know one who would love to have these moments captured during harvest, send me a message to claim one of the 8 spots!

There is no special date set — message me and we will set a date that works best for you and your family! These will take place pretty close to sunset!!
