How do you feel about watermelon!?

It’s my favorite summer food by far!!

They also LOVE watermelon!!

Those eyes! Those cheeks!!

I LOVED spending the evening in the creek with ALL of you!! Thank you SO much for asking me to do this for you!!

Kristen messaged me about a COUSINS creek exploring session!! YES PLEASE!!

I LOVE those shots!!

OH MY HEART!!! This is MAGICAL!

THIS is my favorite way to document childhood!!

I’ve got more to show you!!

Emotional photography is my favorite photography!!

Courtney has a baby in her arms. HER BABY!! Is this really real!?

Little girl – you are SO loved and SO wanted!!

Those are Courtney’s shoes from when she was a baby!!

THOSE CHEEKS!!

Chubby babies are the BEST babies!! Look at those arm rolls!

Dave – holding his baby girl. It’s REALLY REAL!!

THE LOVE IN THAT PHOTO!!

They’ve been waiting YEARS for this!!

Dave & Courtney – I am SO happy for you both. I am so honored to pray with you throughout this journey.

I can’t WAIT to see you again soon!!

I met Courtney & Dave a few years ago – they are friends with Stephanie and loved her photos!

I soon discovered that they were praying for a baby. I put them on my list and have been praying and trusting with them.

I met them at a new creek for their yearly photos last September. A few days – maybe a week – later – she messaged me. GUESS WHAT!?

l cried. They were pregnant. I cried and thanked God.

LOOK AT THOSE SMILES!!

She was the most awake and alert baby I’ve had yet! She is absolutely GORGEOUS!

THOSE SHOTS!!!

OH MY HEART!

Dad holding her little hand – THE SWEETEST!!

I LOVE becoming friends with the people I photograph. I love even more praying for you. Crying with you. Waiting with you. Rejoicing with you.

Stay tuned – because I’ve got more to show you of this sweet girl and her momma and dad!

She was VERY excited about the sand!!

AHHH!!! I LOVE THAT ONE!!

SO MUCH SO – that I’m showing you color & black & white!!

That’s a WRAP!

I love when the kiddos take to me right away when I’m photographing someone for the first time!

Liz – thank you SO MUCH for asking to spend the evening with you! I hope to see you again!

Stay tuned for sandbox fun!!

Can you HEAR the laughter!?

I LOVE THOSE!!

THIS MOMENT. These moments. They are the mundane. They aren’t fancy. They aren’t glamorous.

They are seemingly insignificant. They are ordinary moments that you do every day. Until one day – they put their own shoes on.

And you no longer have to help them with their shoes. And you forget that at one time – you did it EVERY SINGLE DAY.

That’s what I’m here for. I specialize in showing you how extraordinary your ordinary moments are!

I LOVED spending the evening with this family!

I’ve got more to show you!!

Liz emailed me and said – hey! I’ve been following you on INSTAGRAM and I was hoping you could come capture our seemingly insignificant moments.

YES! YES! and YES!!

I tend to be early instead of right on time – and those are the times that I can grab pictures like these!

You do NOT have to have matching outfits.

You do NOT have to find the “best” location.

You do NOT have to make sure the kids sit still and smile.

JUST BE YOURSELVES.

BEAUITFUL!!

Zackery LOVES his wheat – so he requested a shot of the WHOLE family in his wheat field!!

Stephanie with her sweet girl!

PLEASE trust me when I tell you that we need to be as close to sunset as possible! THAT LIGHT!!

THE SWEETEST!

Zackery’s girls with his wheat field in the background – PERFECTION!!

Stephanie – THANK YOU SO MUCH for spending the evening with me!!

Dad was holding his sweet girl while I was taking shots of the big brothers. I couldn’t resist!

That spot in the background where the dirt is – that’s where their house will be!!

OH MY HEART!!

I CAN’T!!! SO ADORABLE!

You KNOW I love a good silhouette!!

I’ve got one more set of photos to show you of this sweet family!
