Claire is ONE!

I swear time is just flying by at warp speed. It feels like I was just snuggling the little newborn version of Claire, and now she's walking, (almost) talking, and a ball of energy! What a fun age to capture- the world is such an exciting place when you can explore it on your own two feet!

Hilary and Austin, I am so glad we captured all the important changes and milestones of this sweet girl's first year. Enjoy!

The Madden Family

What a fun morning spent with this sweet family! Jim and I go waaay back (elementary school!) so it was fun to reconnect and meet his adorable wife and daughter. I think I said "she's so cute!!" about a thousand times. Ellis is at one of my favorite ages- curious and innocent, tickled by the simple things in life. I had so much fun capturing her playful personality.

Jim and Ellen, thank you for inviting me to capture these fun family memories. I hope you enjoy them for years to come!

Baby Ryan

The transformation that happens to us moms and dads every time a new baby comes into our lives is something so unexplainable, yet so visible. Getting to witness that transformation of a friend is that much more special. Jill and John recently welcomed their second precious baby, Ryan. Sweetest, tiniest little peanut! I couldn't get enough of his perfectly petite features. But my favorite part of the session was definitely the shots of him with his big sister. I can tell already these two are gonna be tight.

Jill and Jon, I loved seeing your family transform with the addition of sweet Ryan. He is one lucky boy!
