Sometimes we want to document our family’s everyday life, but when we think about what that could actually look like, our brains go a little… blank. 😅 Here are some springtime activity ideas to get your wheels turning!

There’s just something special about summer that brings extra opportunity for fun & connection! Looking for an extra special way to celebrate & capture all the fun summer has to offer?

I’ve updated my session offerings so that you receive photos in both digital and print form as part of your collection! Hear the back story here, or simply browse the website to see what’s new!

Audrey is 1 year old! See Devon & Bryan’s full New Life Collection experience with most sessions at their home, plus a pregnancy announcement session & Christmas tree farm session too!

See photos from all across Charles’ first year of life with the New Life Collection, plus watch big sister Ada grow, too! They’re enjoying these images in their home with their New Life album & gallery images.

A personal photo series project about my son Isaac and his relationship with animals! If he’s not actively acting like an animal, there’s bound to be one nearby. This project stretched me creatively and helped improve my craft as a documentary family photographer!

It is a joy to introduce you to sweet Nora today! See photos from her full New Life Collection experience here + some of the heirloom artwork they’re enjoying in their home with photos from Nora’s first year of life.

It was such a joy to meet Dawn, Brian, and their girls Julia & Emeline for a fall photo session back in 2020, and then I had the extra special honor of doing an in-home photo session with Dawn & the girls to capture some fun & natural mommy-daughter photos the following summer. Today you get to see both!

“You’re 3 months into motherhood… You’re finally settling into life with a baby, finding new rhythms, and hopefully getting to some kind of new normal. Baby is growing! You can hardly recognize her from the newborn photos you had taken just a few months ago. How is it that she already looks so different? With her physical growth & changes comes some personality too – she’s smiling, she’s laughing, she’s playing… oh, what a joy to see her become more interactive! There’s a little person in there!”

“Jessica & Ben are two of my longest clients & friends. They were the first ones to call me their ‘family photographer’ as I’ve captured all their major life moments from engagement & wedding, to maternity & newborn for their first son, to the New Life Collection with their second son. As soon as they said ‘our family photographer,’ I knew I wanted more of that! Recently I’ve fallen even more in love with maternity, newborn, & family photos, and I’m so excited to be pursuing that in a more focused way as I freeze these special moments in time for more young families!”
