Forever going to love capturing grandparents and great-grandparents with their littlest loves! From the candid moments to the big smiles, it's everything. ❤️

KIDS IN THE FLOWERS | CLIENT APPRECIATION NIGHT IS SATURDAY 🌸

On September 12th, I’m taking over the beautiful flowers at Little Sioux Stems for an evening just for the KIDS!

And the best part?
🌼 If your child has had a paid session with Little Bear Photography anytime in 2026, their session is completely FREE!
Haven’t had a session with me this year? You can still join us for $50 per child — CASH ONLY.

📅 September 12th
⏰ 5:00–6:30 PM
📍 Little Sioux Stems

🌸 HERE’S HOW IT WORKS:
These are going to be QUICK + FUN little sessions!
✨ Approximately 5 minutes per child
✨ 10 edited images included
✨ No assigned appointment times
✨ First come, first served that evening
✨ Your kiddo can pick their favorite spot in the flowers
✨ Styling available upon request
✨ FREE for 2026 LBP clients
✨ $50/kid for everyone else — cash only

I DO need everyone to sign up ahead of time, even though there won't be scheduled time slots. This gives me an idea of how many kiddos to expect and allows me to cap the list if necessary. I want this to stay FUN and be a positive experience for everyone! 🤍

WHAT SHOULD THEY WEAR?
Think simple + THEM.
Their favorite outfit. Jeans and a T-shirt. Overalls. A simple dress. Boots. Something they feel comfortable in and that lets their personality shine.

Please arrive early enough to have your child completely dressed and ready to go, and make sure they have shoes, sandals or boots for walking through the field.

And then? We have FUN. 🌼
No pressure for perfect posing.
No expecting a five-year-old to stand still for 20 minutes. 😂
No forcing smiles.
Give me five minutes to be silly with them, let them explore a little, and capture some genuine smiles, laughs and personality.

👇 Comment below or message Little Bear Photography to get your kiddo(s) on the sign-up list! I have a handful of spots remaining!

🏈 Clayton | WBM | Class of 2027 🏈

It’s GAME DAY, so what better time to share another round of my nephew, Clayton’s senior pictures?! This time we traded baseball for football —a sport that has been such a big part of his high school years.

Now it’s time to put those football pictures into action… Let’s go, Wolverines! 💛🏈💜

Sweet Lyla 🤍

This sweet girl was an absolute dream for her newborn session—so content, so peaceful, and just perfect. And those little smiles! 😍 Her very first one came while she was with Mom & Dad, which made it even sweeter. We managed to catch a few more adorable smiles throughout her session, too!

This one was a little extra special for me because I grew up knowing Lyla’s mama. There’s something pretty amazing about getting to photograph these milestones for people you’ve known through different seasons of life. 🤍

Welcome to the world, sweet little one! You are already so very loved. 🥹💕

I will be taking school pictures again at my studio throughout September for any families. I cannot justify paying $29.99 per child for just one digital image or the lowest package with a digital image included.

Little Bear Photography School Pictures:
•$10/per student, and this will include 3 digital images.
•2 students = $20
•3 or more students = $30.
• Blue or Black Background.

You can build your own print package if you want or buy your own prints elsewhere. (My print cost is your print cost as I don’t need to raise prices just because I can).

Message me to get your time scheduled.

It was the perfect evening to take pictures for this beautiful family! Two little boys and a whole lot of fun! Between their personalities and expressions, it was easy to capture the moments!

Extended Family Sneak Peek | This One’s Mine! ❤️

It’s always a little extra special when the family in front of my camera happens to be my own. We have waited quite a few years since the last time we took pictures, so it was time. We caught the smiles, the laughs, the personalities, and plenty of the fun in between—which is exactly how I love family pictures to feel!

And of course, with Clayton’s senior year officially here, we had to switch things up and throw on our WBM gear for a few! 💜🏈 So thankful to have these memories of my family and for updated pictures with the five youngest family members! ❤️

🌸 A Little Motherhood Moment 🤍

While I was at the Bloom & Brose event at Little Sioux Stems, I was offering the women attending a few complimentary pictures among the flowers—and when some of those mamas had their littles along, there was absolutely NO way I was passing up the opportunity to get them in front of my camera too.

I only had a couple of quick minutes with this sweet mama and her little one, but that’s all we needed.

And after getting to capture a few mamas with their littles among the flowers… I’m thinking Mom & Me Minis at the flower farm might just need to happen next August. 🌼🤍

Ps- I have been battling migraines this week, so I appreciate everyone who has been patient with me.

Such a fun session with the Wilson family! We caught some great smiles, lots of personality, and some sweet family moments along the way. And the littlest members of the family? Absolutely adorable—and they did SO good for pictures! 🤍
