Nothing like seeing and photographing your best friend pregnant, and tomorrow, newborns of their new baby boy, Will!

I adore this family. Brad and L.B are so kind and really good looking 😉 They make really adorable kids. Kate knows how to pose and Luke loves Wonder Woman and her um bathing suit.  It’s always such a joy to photograph these four and to watch the kids grow! 

expecting their first little one in November…

Family portraits aren’t something I do frequently, but it’s always fun when I do, especially when the family is beautiful. We spent the evening out in La Grange battling the wind and Tom’s eye rolls and poking fun at the kids (J/K Tom!) Tom is a BIG FAN of portrait time, but you wouldn’t be able […]

For the second part of Karissa’s maternity shoot we traveled out to their new land. Pretty soon Grady and his little brother will be tramping around the land, catching bugs and rolling down the hills, so I couldn’t think of a more fitting place. To see my vision for my sister’s shoot unfold in front […]

It’s moments like these that I am so very thankful for what I do.  Creating memories for others gives me such joy in my chosen path, but creating memories for my family is seriously priceless. I can’t thank God enough for this little boy and the two people responsible for bringing him to us.  I […]

I’m so excited for Lesley and Rocky! So excited for their love, wedding and what their future holds. It’s so wonderful to see family friends find what they are looking for and Rocky is just that for Lesley!!  We spent the afternoon at Rocky’s family land, trying not to fall in the river, blow over […]
