8 months is one of my favorite ages – and I was so excited to see these babies return to the studio for their eight month milestone sessions!  It is always really amazing to see how much they’ve grown and changed in just a few months.

This Australian themed cake smash absolutely rocked!  Since his daddy is from Australia, we decided to take those elements and really celebrate.  What a fun time we had smashing, too!

I am so incredibly in love with the way these portraits turned out – partly because I love the hazy look of the sun flooding a field and partly because this gorgeous model is my own sister!  I can’t wait to meet my new niece and spoil her rotten!!!  But until then, I’ll have to […]

This little fighter is amazing.  Two surgeries in less than two weeks and he is both strong and healthy.  What a miracle he is – and what a strong and determined mother he has.  His daddy is fighting for our freedom overseas in the Marine Corps and I know these photos will help him to […]
