Oh, internet, I’ve been dying to show you these! You may remember Hunter, Roper, and Bailer from nearly two years ago (how can that be?! ), and I can’t wait to show you how much they’ve grown and changed. I got to spend an evening chasing the three of them; laughing at their antics, and […]

Remember these guys? When Megan emailed wanting summery photographs of her family to mark Nora’s first birthday, I couldn’t have been more excited. After talking through some ideas, we decided on a picnic in the park. The thing I loved most about this shoot—other than when Greta completely melted my heart by holding my hand—was […]

As a followup to Maryrose and Cole’s engagement session post, I wanted to share a few of my favorites of their beautiful daughter Makenna. I couldn’t have been happier that she was able to come along (thanks for helping, Don!), and love knowing that someday she’ll treasure these pictures of her with her Mom & […]

While in Chadron this weekend, I met baby Hunter. Needless to say, it didn’t take long at all for me to become smitten with him and his welcoming parents. And Kayley, their beautiful black lab, who could see me coming from a mile away. It’s hard to resist throwing a ball to someone who waits […]

Just before it got cold, I was lucky enough to meet up with the McClure family for their annual family photo. I adore the McClures, and I’m sure any of you who know them have the same feeling. Jacob and Amber were kind enough to trust me with their wedding photos when I was first […]

A lot can change in a year’s time. I met up with Aric, Katie, Will and Hayden this past weekend for the twins’ one year portraits. I could hardly believe it when I saw them in their car seats, looking so much like I remember them —and at the same time— so grown. Their first year […]

Have you ever met someone and immediately felt like you could be friends?  That’s how I felt about Joan when I met her and her family for an early morning portrait at the end of July. We had been emailing back and forth for a few weeks, planning the when and the where and the […]

Dereck, Deidre and Cammy met me at the park a couple of weeks ago for family pictures. Our first attempt was called on account of rain (crazy year we’ve had), so I couldn’t wait to see them again. Kids like Cammy are part of the reason I love what I do.  Her smiles are genuine and […]

Melinda and Adam, along with four-year-old Ashton, met me at Sylvan Lake for engagement and family photos.  They met while living in the same apartment building back in Minnesota, and will be getting married there next summer. I have no doubt that it will be the happiest of occasions. Melinda and Adam seemed truly at […]

I met up with my friends Paul and Susan last week for a few photos while Paul’s daughter Nadine was still in town the country.  She lives in Germany, and was going to be heading back there after spending some time with her dad over the summer. I requested that Elsie be there as well. […]
