Alivia {Rock the Dress}


Last week, I had the opportunity to capture Alivia rocking her prom dress.  We started our session at the Levitt Center in Iowa City.  I love the lighting in the Levitt Center.  It is simply filled with gorgeous natural light which was perfect to capture portraits of this stunning girl.

Mary Beth {Maternity}



I love maternity sessions.  There is nothing more beautiful than the glow of a mommy to be.  Whether it's her first or fifth child, there is still a radiance about her. 

Recently, in the midst of this weather's flip flop between spring and winter, we had the perfect snow for portraits and Mary Beth seized the moment to capture her maternity portraits.  The ground was completely clear from snow the evening before, but by the time noon rolled around the next day a beautiful clean powder of snow had covered the ground.  The air was filled with gorgeous fluffy flakes of snow.  It was truly the perfect setting for this winter loving mommy to be!

Vintage Furniture


I've been having a lot of fun shopping for some new chairs for the studio.  I love the new vintage chair and couch we just added to the studio.  The couch is made from gorgeous green crushed velvet.  Super fun and funky!  The chair is upholstered with blue velvet and has intricately carved wooden arms and legs that have been painted a pale green-blue hue.  So gorgeous!
