Wow, I can’t believe how fast this spring flew by for our family! It was full of end of the school year activities and travels to Utah and Florida. We loved getting to watch Abby’s preschool program and how much she has learned this past year. Ethan finished 1st grade, and one of my favorite […]

Last February I traveled to Amelia Island to attend the Click Away conference with Clickin Moms. It was beyond amazing to learn from various speakers, meet up with friends I’ve gotten to know through the last few years, and soak up the beautiful Florida beach! This sunset beach session was definitely one of the highlights. […]

We’ve all done it: “Say CHEESE!” In this selfie-saturated world, most kids are trained to flash that cheesy smile for the camera, or they run in the opposite direction when they see the camera. As a mom, though, I melt when I see a picture of my kids with their real smiles and laughs. The […]

This Newborn Session was extra special because I got to meet my friend Lauren in person for the first time. She and I “met” online in an amazing small group formed from a Clickin Moms photography class. Our group has watched each others’ kids gradually get bigger through out the year, celebrated milestones, comforted through […]

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. It has been a particularly warm month, so we have spent lots of days outside playing, riding bikes, hiking, picking pumpkins, and […]

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 […]
