I'm baaack! (okay maybe 4 days later than I said, but here I am!)

What a wonderful end of summer I had with my family. Stepping away from social media was just what I needed to lean into this special time with the ones I love. If you're curious about what I was up to these past few weeks, check out the photos below and yes, these are all just quick snapped iphone photos because not all memories have to be captured on a fancy camera.

What's Next?

Fall is approaching quickly and I am sooo excited for this beautiful season here in the midwest. I have a few things on my books right now, and with my husband being back into the school year my availability has changed. That being said, I still have some open time in my schedule the next few months and I'd love to fill those slots with more pay-what-you-cans! So if you're needing family photos, senior photos, kiddo pictures, lifestyle - you name it! Reach out and I'm happy to discuss some options.

Wishing all a blessed fall and back-to-school season!

I’m heading out of office and offline for a bit! It’s time for me to set aside my social media and soak up the last few weeks of summer with my family.🫶🏼

Don’t panic!! If you’re waiting for a gallery from me, I’m still working to send that your way! If you’re scheduled with me, no worries I still plan to communicate and show up to your scheduled shoot time. If you want to reach out and schedule with me, you totally still can!!! I just may not get back to you right away but I will do my best to check my messages periodically.

Being a wife and mother has been, and always will be, my top priority. There have been times the Lord has asked me to lean into serving outside of the home through this little venture and now is a time he’s calling me to be present and intentional with my family. Thanks for your understanding and support!

It’s been a minute!!

I took a little social media hiatus as our family has been on vacation the past week. It’s taken us some time to adjust to being back home again. A break from the 100 degree Iowa heat (IYKYK) was much needed! I love leaning into a slow season of enjoying time with my own family and being able to be present with them. Anyway, friends have a great end of summer! 🫶🏼
Looking forward to more sessions as fall approaches!☺️

The Elliott Family

I never finished sharing about the busy month of May. I had the privilege of working with the Elliott family on a beautiful spring morning. It's so special when an entire family can gather and I love getting a request for family sessions to capture the time together.

Jordon + Kenna’s surprise proposal 🤍

Honestly have a love hate relationship with the anxiety of a surprise photoshoot - this turned out so fun and so well though! Kenna was surprised and SHE SAID YES! That’s a success in my book!!

Super bummed the rain cancelled session two with Manny and Gianna, but I did say you’d be seeing more of these two on my feed so what better reason to post more of these two and their downtown engagement photos!
