I got to follow Tristan around on the golf course tonight! Such a good choice for a location, we had soooo many options!
Good luck this year Tristan!

Who needs a sunset when you have these two to look at?!?!
The smoke had already taken over by time we got to the beach last night, but its not every day you get what looks like fog at the beach, so I didn't mind one bit!

We had a beautiful night out at the lakeshore last night without a cloud in sight!

Super late night post. I was ready to post these a couple of hours ago, then my son came in and we were looking through really old photos going down memory lane!! WHERE HAS TIME GONE?!?!
It also seems like just a few years ago when Elis mom was pregnant with him, now here we are doing senior photos while us 40 something moms are just living the life that we thought was sooooooo far away! 😂

Truly the end of an Era with this one...
Sunday is baby number 5 that I have shot for the VanDuyn Family. Bittersweet for both Elise and I this morning. Her last time getting one year photos, and my last lear doing them.
Its been so fun seeing some of your families grow up through my lens over the years! That is, by far, the absolute hardest part for me as I am phasing out of this career! 💕

I was really struggling on a location for tonights shoot since we are kind of in between seasons here, but with lighting like tonight, it doesn't really matter where you end up!

Hi Friends!
Long time no see! ;) I am in fact still here!
This spring will continue be pretty quiet as I am also coaching, but as soon as that is done I will probably open up a few dates on my calendar for the summertime!

BUT more importantly, I am pretty sure Azari is absolutely ready to be a big brother, and I am so excited to see him in his new role!
