His love is never ending, His grace is abounding, His mercy is eternal.
"Give thanks to the LORD because he is good, because his faithful love endures forever."
To be loved so fervently despite our failures and shortcomings is a gift.
"Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins."
Pressing Pause.
That's exactly what photography does for my clients...my friends. I can press pause on a moment in time for them that means something.
It's not about the posed smile, the matching outfits, or the props.
It could be meeting their new baby for the first time, a walk down the aisle, or a game of chase in a tree farm.
Whatever the moment, I'm grateful to capture it.
What could be more fun than twirling, eating cake, laughing, and balloons!?!?
We chased crickets, climbed stairs, ran around open fields, took a short break to sit down, and repeated the entire thing! It was SO.MUCH.FUN!
It is always fun to see how these babies will react to their first birthday cake - will they love it, devour it, not touch it, get really excited...?! Capturing their expressions as they take those first bites makes me giggle every time.
Hopefully we are past the HOT, HOT days and starting to cruise into cooler evenings that are actually enjoyable enough to spend time outside! That's what I loved about this session, as the sun started to set, the smiles got sweeter, the laughs were louder, and it was the perfect time to try to catch a fish...or two!
"I had a little tea party
This afternoon at three.
'Twas very small-
Three guest in all-
Just I, myself and me.
Myself ate all the sandwiches,
While I drank up the tea;
'Twas also I who ate the pie
And passed the cake to me."
He's such a cool THREE year old! When we pulled the car up for him to ride, he immediately propped up on the side, crossed his arms, and had that "yeah, I'm cool" look right towards the camera. It was absolutely adorable and priceless!!!
Happy 3rd Birthday E!!!!!
This sweet boy is already growing up so fast. His big brother and sister think the world of him and it's easy to see why! Too much cuteness!
What an absolute treat this was to photograph a Grandmother and her Granddaughter as a surprise for the Mom! Between twirls, finding flowers, reading books, and laughing it wasn't like a session at all - it was just a day they spent outside having fun!
Just a relaxing stroll around the park capturing this wonderful family and celebrating as their little girl turns ONE! Each milestone is so special and I adore being able to save these memories for the family.

How sweet is this smile?! One funny look from Daddy or a goofy phrase from Mommy and this little beauty would grin ear to ear. It is so much fun to see their pure innocence at this age when they are beginning to explore the world around them.
She's a bundle of joy and will keep you on your toes but her smile will melt your heart. I loved running around, smelling flowers, and watching her draw.
When family members live states away, it's always a great time having them come visit. For these six cousins, it was a fun evening spent hanging out at the park, loving on the sweet baby, and telling some funny secrets :)
Mother's Day is quickly approaching and I'm so thankful for my own Mother. She's caring, passionate, beautiful, and such a tremendous help with my son.
So to all you Mothers - Happy Mother's Day!!!!
This session was a special Mommy + Me time where she was able to capture some special moments with her two sons.
I absolutely adore seeing these babies every few months and watching them grow! Capturing new milestones, birthdays, and seeing their smiling faces is such a rewarding opportunity.
