Alisha {Senior}

On Wednesday, I headed out to Alisha's home for her senior portraits. She has a wonderful home just outside Wellman, in the country. It was so much fun wandering around her property with her and getting to know her. She was wonderful to work with and her pictures turned out amazing!

Zach {Senior}

This past Tuesday, I was up in Minnesota to take my youngest brother-in-law's senior pictures. It was great getting to go out and have fun with him while taking pictures. It is still hard to believe he's old enough to be a senior. How time has flown!

The Frey Family

Last weekend I was able to meet up once again with the Frey family. Their girls have grown so much since I last saw them and that was just a few months ago!

Katie {Trash the Dress}

I had a blast in southern Minnesota with Katie for her trash the dress session. We went out in the pasture with one of her horses, Pretty, and down to the creek at the edge of her property. I think we got some amazing shots! I cannot wait for my next trash the dress session. They are so much fun and make for some beautiful photos. For those of you who are considering it, definitely do it! Thus far, everyone's dress has come clean afterward.

Hunter & Kelly {Just Married}

Last Saturday I spent the day with Hunter and Kelly as they renewed their vows. They had a beautiful service at St. Mark's Lutheran in Marion and a fun reception at the Elk's. They were a lot of fun to work with and I'm glad we got to steal a little time after the ceremony for a bride and groom session in the lovely field beside the church. I love how the photos turned out!

Aaron & Jesse {Engaged}

Last Thursday I spent the afternoon out at the home of Aaron & Jesse, taking their engagement portraits. It was a lot of fun wandering around their property with them and getting to know them a bit better.

April {Mini Video}

I'm playing around with new software to produce videos for my clients. I thought I'd share this short video I made from April's senior session last week.

Carter {6 Months Old}

Yesterday, I had this smiley little guy in the studio for pictures. He was so sweet and just so happy! What a joy to work with!

Eric & Laura {Just Married}

Saturday, I spent my day with Eric and Laura. They had a beautiful ceremony at Old Brick. I'm still sorting through photos, but again couldn't wait to share some of the amazing shots we got. They are a beautiful couple and I'm so glad I was there to capture their big day.

Justin & Christy {Newlyweds}

Last Friday I spent an amazing afternoon and evening with Justin & Christy and their families. They had a small, intimate ceremony at the Coralville Marriott. It was simply beautiful! The weather was lovely, the people were wonderful, and it was an amazing time.

I'm not quite finished editing their photos yet, but I couldn't wait to share what I've edited so far!

April {Senior}

This past Wednesday, I had a fantastic Ultimate Senior Session with April. We played around in the studio, then headed to the Wellman park and North English pool for some fun outdoor shots. April has been a lifeguard at the country club pool in North English for 3 years, so it was a great spot to capture her personality. At the very end of our session, she donned her winter formal dress and hopped in the pool. It was so much fun and made for some amazing pictures! I'd definitely recommend a "drown the gown" session to all the seniors out there.

Peyton: 3 Months Old

Today, once again, the sweet little bundle of joy that is Peyton graced my studio. I last photographed her when she was only 2 weeks old, just and itty bitty peanut. My how she's grown! I have to say I've totally fallen in love with her big blue eyes. Simply gorgeous! I am definitely looking forward to her 6 month session. It will be so fun to see how much she's changed.
