Easter is one of my favorite times of the year! The flowers are starting to bloom, its usually a little warmer, and everyone dresses up in their pretty Easter outfits! Studio Easter minis will be done Saturday, March 28th at my studio in Newton. The session is a 20 minute session with 10 of your […]

Ive known Blake and Mary for as long as I can remember! I got to help with their wedding several years ago and was honored when they contacted me about doing newborn family photos of their new arrival! They waited to find out the gender until the baby was born and I was so happy […]

I’ve known the Hess’ since I was in 3rd grade! I was honored when Hannah, Jake, and Jared purchased a gift certificate for their parents as a Christmas gift last year.  I loved when the guys decided to use their bikes for some of the photos. I think they chose the perfect location for their […]

I met Katie and Paul in Lincoln county near Laboratory Mill where we walked down to the river to do maternity photos before they get to meet their baby boy next month! Katie looked gorgeous in both her maternity gowns! The black gown fit her so well and looked perfect with both the greenery and […]

Stephanie and I met and became friends years ago while in school at CVCC. She contacted me months ago about photographing her and Michael’s upcoming wedding at Warehouse 18 in December. We shot their engagement session here on the farm Memorial weekend on one of the hottest days in May! Michael’s kids tagged along for […]

I never thought I would be able to take my own newborn’s photos! With my first child I ended up having an unplanned c-section after many hours in labor and then having gallbladder attacks days after he was born, so I never got to shoot my own newborn photos of him!  This little one was […]

John Micol’s first birthday session with his cake smash has to be one of my favorite little boy cake smash sessions so far! We started with photos with mom and dad and then did some simple ones of John Micol by himself and then got messy! I loved his monster theme with all the bright […]

We shot baby Grant’s newborn session similar to his older brothers newborn session three years ago! We did several of the same poses and used some of the same outfits as well! I’ve know his mom’s family since I was born! I didn’t think he looked like big brother until we did some of the […]

I couldn’t wait to shoot Logan’s newborn photos after he arrived. I knew his mom would have some great ideas! We did several different shoots for him from his Fresh 48 shoot, to his newborn session at his grandma and grandpa’s farm, Devine Farms in Newton(go check out the maze and pumpkin patch this month!), […]

We were so excited to finally meet “Baby Boy Devine”. No one knew the name except the parents until he arrived on Sunday, September 23rd! It was also his daddy’s birthday! I was photographing a wedding when his mom came up to me and said I think my water just broke, we’re going to go […]
