I got an email from Erin in June – asking if we could schedule family photos.
I photographed their wedding nearly 11 years ago and this would be the first time seeing them since!
Their little girls were SO excited to see me and talk to me and bring me home for a sleepover!!
I ADORE those shots!
ALWAYS let them be silly. Let them be little!
I’ve got SO MUCH more to show you!

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!
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!!

Zackery’s girls with his wheat field in the background – PERFECTION!!
Stephanie – THANK YOU SO MUCH for spending the evening with me!!
It goes SO fast! I remember when Kristi said – hey – we really want a baby! So I added her to my list of people to pray for.
I feel like this little girl was JUST born! But – she’s TWO already!
