Having the privilege to take these newborn family pictures for the King Family was so special. Every baby is a miracle, but their sweet little Ruby was an especially exciting one for Ryan and Deidre! They have long waited for God to bless them with their own growing family, and it was such a joy […]

Getting family pictures done in the snow might not sound too appealing at first, but let me tell you with the perfectly white snow reflecting light all over the place – its ideal! I was nervous headed to the Cameron Family’s session because I knew it would only be 30 degrees out, but with the […]

For a long while now I’ve been wanting to try out film again. The last time I played with film photography was back in high school (*cough, ahem, like 15 years ago) and back then it was all black and white. I learned how to use a camera using film, and not only that we […]

To say that the last couple of months have kept me busy would be an understatement! With Christmas and New Years, sickness shared all around the family, and welcoming our son Connor I don’t think I’ve had one day I haven’t just fallen into bed exhausted at the end of the day. Our littlest man […]

This shoot was in celebration of my sweet friend Ashley’s little boy turning one! I just love looking back over little August’s pictures from the last year from his newborn shoot to his six month shoot to his one year pictures! Watching their sweet little faces grow and change is just so fun! And Ashley […]

The Crowe family is our church pastor’s family! I was so excited when Matt asked me to take portraits as a Mother’s Day gift to his bride. I loved that he knew how much they would mean to her, and I was so eager to capture their darling family! In the last year they’ve gone […]

I haven’t gotten to see my friend Desiree since high school, so it was an extra pleasure to also meet her darling family! These guys have moved around like us, but made their way back to Castle Rock in recent years like ourselves. What a joy it was to reconnect and spend an evening with […]

My bitty is 18 months old now! I know its cliche and you hear it all the time, but boy the last 18 months have gone by quickly! In fact, its almost a blur with our third little munchkin and I’m very much behind on writing in her little baby book. Here are some highlights […]
