There is such a tiny window of time between little girl and teenage girl.

I think 11 is right in the middle of it.

They’re finishing elementary school and heading into middle school. They still climb trees and laugh until they can’t breathe. They’re silly and loud and completely themselves with their best friends. They hold hands, make up games, eat apples in the sunshine and don’t quite realize yet how quickly all of this is going to change.

But when I look at them, I can already see glimpses of the young women they’re becoming.

And maybe that’s why this season of motherhood feels so incredibly tender to me.

These are my daughter’s best friends. I’ve watched them grow up together, and I realized recently that we take pictures of so many milestones, but we don’t always think to photograph girlhood itself.

Not a birthday. Not graduation. Not because someone accomplished something.

Just because they are eleven.

Because these friendships matter. Because the way they laugh together right now matters. Because their freckles and tangled hair and inside jokes and scraped knees and absolute ridiculousness deserve to be remembered too.

Someday they’ll look back at these photographs and see the little girls they used to be.

And someday, much sooner than I’d like, I will too.

So I think I want to start offering more sessions like this.

Bring me your daughters. Bring me the best friends who are practically sisters. Let them run, climb trees, eat snacks, whisper secrets, laugh too loudly and just be girls.

No milestone required.

Just a little piece of their girlhood, kept forever. 🤍

I’ve been seeing a lot of posts lately from brides saying the same thing…

“Why is it so hard to find a wedding photographer’s pricing?”

Honestly… I get it.

Wedding planning is already overwhelming. The last thing you need is another sales process.

That’s why I do things differently.

✨ My pricing is on my website.
✨ The price is the price.
✨ No sales pitch.
✨ No upsells.
✨ No surprise costs after a consultation.

If you inquire, we’ll message back and forth for a few minutes so I can learn about your day and answer any questions you have.

If we’re a good fit, I’ll send over my questionnaire and contract for you to complete whenever it’s convenient for you.

That’s it.

No pressure.
No hoops.
No wondering if the price is going to change once you get on a call.

I became a wedding photographer because I love documenting people’s stories, not because I wanted to become a salesperson.

If every vendor made planning this simple, wedding planning would be a whole lot more enjoyable.

Do you wish more wedding vendors did business this way?

👇 I’d love to hear from both brides and other vendors.

Wisconsin State Capitol engagement sessions always look beautiful.

What people don’t see is everything happening outside the frame.

Tour groups. Families. Farmers’ Market crowds. Strangers walking through almost every photo.

And somewhere in the middle of all of that, Rebecca quietly looked at me and said,

“I feel like I look awkward. Like something isn’t right.”

The funny thing is, I wasn’t seeing awkwardness at all.

I was watching exactly what happens with almost every couple during the first few minutes in front of the camera. They think about where their hands are. They wonder if they’re smiling right. They worry they’re doing it wrong.

Then something changes.

The poses stop mattering.

The camera fades into the background.

And two people start paying attention to each other instead.

That’s exactly what happened during Spencer and Rebecca’s session.

By the end of the afternoon, they had somehow made one of the busiest places in Madison feel like it belonged only to them. Somewhere between the Capitol hallways, the rooftop, the spiral staircase, one stubborn elevator, and a few trips through the revolving doors, they forgot they were having engagement photos taken.

Those always end up being my favorite photographs.

I wrote the full story behind this session, including the little moments that made this gallery one I’ll never forget.
