Capturing growing families -specifically, maternity sessions- will always have a special place in my heart. I hope to do more of these sessions as my clients’ and friends grow their families!!

I love nothing more than a sweet lifestyle session in an early 1900s apartment! Clara and Eva called this space home for a year while living together, and it was so special to capture them (and cat Puddin’) in this gorgeous Sherman Hill building. Let me know if you’d like to book your own lifestyle session here!
This sweet early morning session at Ledges State Park never migrated over to this blog, so I’m sharing it (may or may not be 10 years later- oops!). Jackie and I were friends in high school, and it’s been so sweet to look back at our friendship over the past 15 years & count the many times she & Collin have had me photograph them and their growing family. Enjoy these sweet documentary-style engagement photos!
Some of my favorite family photos, headshots, branding photo sessions, and more from 2022!
You all know that my favorite thing is taking outdoor photos… but when it’s below freezing here in Iowa, a studio is the next best option! Thankfully, my studio in East Village has great light and is quiet on weekdays. So we picked it for our maternity session location!
I love these sweet in-home Facetime sessions! Not only does this give me a great creative outlet, but I get to catch up with old friends and meet their new pets. My pal Miranda and her husband Collin bought a house in Minneapolis in the recent past, but I’ve yet to see it. So it was fun to get a virtual tour of their precious home, and take some Facetime photos of the two of them, enjoying coffee and a sunny Saturday morning together.
Like many of you, this past week dampened any sense of motivation that I had. Rainy days and low energy from lack of people (I’m an extrovert, and already tired of working from home) coupled with some tension in my household and you get a very moody artist. ;)
I joyfully spent an hour on a warm, sunny Sunday afternoon with these two. They made my job SO EASY!!!! I sure hope that someday, Mary and Bobby look back on these photos and remember the simple and tenderness of this season— just them (and their doggo!) making a life together in their first apartment. I smile looking at each one of these, and I hope they bring you joy as well!
