Leach Family

This is one of my favorite family's! I got to photograph the 3 girls last year but this time Mom & Dad came along. These girls are just plain beautiful...the chocolate skin, the silky hair, the dark eyes, and cute chubby cheeks. How could you go wrong?

Katie {bridals}

Katie and Matt are married and off on their honeymoon in Mexico (so jealous, I have 3 inches of snow here!) Katie is a beautiful bride and now Matt has seen the dress I can show just how pretty she is. We had fun tramping through the sunflower fields!

Hill Family.

Last time I photographed this family it was at Aaron & Erin's wedding. Now they have two beautiful kids and Erin is getting more and more interested in photography. She was my assistant on at this wedding, and these bridals...and hopefully on some upcoming events!

Baby Teva.

Is this not one of the most beautiful little babies ever? Newborn photography is so challenging but this little one made my job easy.

I've been asked a lot about how I "go about" photographing a newborn session.

My answer: I prefer to photograph infants in their own home. So I haul all of my stuff to the client's home, lights (if needed) and lots of other stuff. I am always looking for something different and new. I love to use textured material or elements from the clients home. It is always important to find out if there is a certain outfit the baby needs to be photographed in, however most of the time the baby is just in their diaper. You can not rush when photographing a newborn so I plan on 1-3 hours depending on feeding, etc. You have to keep baby warm and comfy. I have a lot of ideas I am going to try to incorporate in my upcoming sessions. and I will be offering a Baby's 1st year package that includes a newborn session (first 4 weeks), 3 month, 6 month, 9 month, and 1 year session so check back for details!

Nordquist {the whole family}

I love this family. I would really love to photograph each individual family on a single family session when we have more time. Trying to keep everyone happy, clean, and content while photographing all the different family groups can be a real challenge. They are such a good looking family, and the children are all what I call "model" material. Thanks again for DINNER!!
