Spring is right around the corner here in Dayton, and I’m SO excited to be partnering with Stevens Bakery & Orchard in Springfield, Ohio to offer you the most gorgeous location for Apple Blossom Mini Sessions, surrounded by rows and rows of pastel blooms! This is perfect for Mother’s Day, Easter, or just because – […]

Winter can be cold and grey in Dayton, Ohio, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have a fun, beautiful family session! And I love how this lifestyle session with the Minor family turned out! Doing an in-home session helps everyone feel that much more at ease and comfortable. Because, really, it’s impossible not to have […]

March is finally here (my birthday month!), and I’m excited to share what we’ve been up to lately. This time of year tends to be a little quieter as freezing temperatures, snow days, and cold/flu season force us to be home more often, which is actually good for my introverted soul. We have had a […]

When my friend, Leigh, asked me to take pictures of their new family of six, I was beyond excited to capture this special time in their lives. It doesn’t matter how many kids you already have, bringing a baby home is such a wonderful, crazy, exhausting, and memorable time. I remember with my babies, there […]

It’s another month, and another Friday Faves! I can’t believe it’s November already – I’m still wondering where August went! It has been a busy but fun fall season so far for us.

As soon as you meet Emily and Seth, you can see their love, friendship, and commitment to each other. As high school sweethearts, they were just meant to be together, and I had so much fun documenting this special phase in their lives, where everything is just a little brighter and sweeter. No more saying […]

One of our favorite family adventures this summer was spending a few days in Chicago. It was the kids’ first time to explore Chicago, and they loved it! The little town we live in only has a population of about 4,000, so they were amazed by the tall skyscrapers, elevated subway, bustling streets, deep dish […]

I met Suzy at a young moms brunch a few years ago after my daughter was born. Not only is she Super Mom with 4 small kids, but she is also one of the kindest and hardest working people I know. And she amazes me with the elaborate crafts she can whip up in no […]

School starts tomorrow for us, which means our summer break is quickly coming to an end. At the beginning of the summer, I shared our family’s Summer Bucket List and some tips on how to photograph your own summer. It ended up being a great summer, and we managed to check everything off our Bucket […]
