If someone were to ask me what the hardest part of motherhood was with a newborn I would have said the lack of sleep. If they’d asked about when the kids were toddlers, I would have said the tantrums. The pr***en era? The attitude. But as my kids are getting older I’m beginning to realize that none of that is the hardest part. The hardest part is knowing each season is fleeting. It’s the knowing that no season lasts forever and that you will never get to experience that time with your children again.

Knowing that your kids’ laughter will change, that their sweet little voice will evolve, that they’ll stop reaching for your hand or stop wanting to spend every waking moment with you - that’s a gut punch you don’t see coming until it’s already happened.

So in this season of life I’m trying to embrace all the things - even the things that annoy me. Because being a mother is all I’ve ever dreamt of and knowing that my days as a mother with kids at home is coming to an end makes me want to soak up every second.

What would you say is the hardest part of motherhood?

I’m not a foodie. I don’t enjoy cooking and I don’t really experiment much when it comes to trying new things. I like what I like and it’s all rather simple foods. I was talking to someone the other day about how I could happily eat the same thing for every meal and be content. She seemed shocked and asked what I could eat for every meal and not get sick of it and the answer was easy. I could eat omelettes or scrambled eggs for every meal and be perfectly content.

Is anyone else this way? Are you a foodie or could you eat the same thing for every meal? If you’re like me, what is the meal you’re eating? Let me know.

Let’s talk vacation types. There are two types of people on vacation. The ones that want to sit by the pool, read a book, drink a fruity drink and nap - basically they want to do as little as possible. And then those that want to sightsee, get all the steps and never sit still.

I’m definitely the former. I want to relax and sit and do just about nothing. I love to exercise in the morning and then sit in my chair by the water the remainder of the day. What are you? Are you someone that’s sitting by me at the pool or are you out seeing all the things? Let me know!

Today was so special. I got to spend time with one of my oldest and dearest friends. Kelsea was one of my high school best friends. I've known Kelsea and Hunter since before they were Kelsea AND Hunter. To get to see your friend have a crush and then fall in love with her high school sweetheart, then get married, then build a life and a family together - it's pretty darn special. I was in the hospital room when Harlow was born and I've photographed these four nearly every year since before the girls were born. I've been able to witness so much of their story. These two have built such a beautiful, peaceful life together and it's truly admirable. It is such an honor to get to document even just a small part of it. Take a peek at our morning in their beautiful backyard.

I had perfect little Callan in the studio today! This little guy was truly an angel. He was so calm and easy and I had the best time getting to know his wonderful parents. This little boy is so clearly loved. Take a peek at Callan!

It’s officially October! I love all the cozy fall things - soups, fires (in the fireplace, not outside 😂), sweatshirt weather and I love watching football on the couch on a Sunday – as in I like, falling asleep on the couch while watching football on a Sunday.

However, if you know me, you know that I am not a huge Halloween fan. I don’t like the orange/black color combo or the all the skeletons & ghosts and creepy stuff. But the one thing I think I hate most about this season is the scary movies. I watch a lot of movies and television while I edit every day and this time of year the only thing that seems to be on TV is scary movies. I can’t get myself to watch them. They absolutely terrify me. I feel like even now, all the movie theater movies are spooky scary movies and it makes me mad.

Who else hates them? I know there is a huge group of people that absolutely love them. I am most definitely not one of them. Which camp do you fall in? Scary movie fan or not? Let me know below!

Fun fact: I’ve lived in Southern Indiana nearly my entire life -aside for college and short stint in MN. And in all the adult years I’ve lived here, I’ve never been to the Fall Festival. As a kid I went a couple times, but as an adult, never. I know there are people who LOVE it and go every single day. And I imagine there are people, like me, who can’t do the crowds. Which are you? Are you a Fall Fest fan or no? Let me know below! And if you are a fan, what are you getting to eat down there?

To say I love this family would be an understatement. This mama is not only a client, but she's my amazing dentist and I'm lucky to call her a friend. She is a respected dentist, wonderful wife, mother and friend and she is also training for a Hyrox competition. I literally don't know how she does it all. She and Curtis are as genuine as they come and they've given me the honor of capturing their family for the last seven years. I've been able to watch these two precious kiddos grow up from behind my lens and it's been amazing. They have the most special twin bond and the two of them can get each other laughing in a way no one else can.

They are also some of the biggest IU fans I know, so when Jenna mentioned wanting to include IU in some way, I was all for it. I want every session to be true to you and your family and I love that we could add a little Hoosier pride to their session - even if I am a Boilermaker. :) Take a peek at our evening together!

Um…who all is following this Caleb Flynn trial? I feel like it is slowly getting attention but I hadn’t heard anything about it before last week. This trial is absolutely wild. I am utterly baffled by the entire thing. How the mistress is not culpable is beyond me. Is anybody else following this trial?

I had the sweetest baby girl in the studio today! Miss Collins is the only girl for this family and her big brothers adore her. They claim she "just sleeps" for now, but I have a feeling she'll be tagging along with these two not long from now. She was so gentle and calm and I absolutely loved getting to catch up with her incredible mama! This little girl it truly blessed with the most wonderful family!
