What a lovely adventure their shoot was!! 😀 We got up early on Sunday morning, before each of our church services started, and traveled out to their 18 acres they’re having cleared for their future home! Having this part of their story be the backdrop to their family photos was really special and fun 😀 […]

Family portraits are kinda on my “secret menu”. Haha. I don’t do them often, but these mini family sessions I did for my cousin and her family (who long time followers should recognize!) and then some new friends were just too beautiful not to share sneak peeks of 😀 . May you feel the nearness […]

A few days before Sam and Brianna’s wedding weekend, I visited my best friend Allix and took her maternity/family photos. 😀 Remember the first time I did that?
