Maternity ~ Mader

Baby ~ Sophia

Introducing my newest niece Sophia!

It's still hard to believe she's real since her parents (my brother and his wife) were told they couldn't have any more kids after she almost died giving birth to their son over nine years ago. What an amazing miracle and fun surprise to find out a baby was on her way! 

Even though I was there for her arrival, a last minute decision for a c-section made it impossible for me to photograph her birth so I decided to focus on the moment her big brother met her for the first time the next day. I also had fun doing a few posey pics when she came home a few days later. She'd better get used to auntie's camera like all her big cousins. Look at that sweet little face!

Senior ~ Cameron

When Cameron said he wanted his truck and 4-wheeler in his senior photos I knew exactly what I wanted that to look like. The first photo is almost my exact vision. Thankfully my gear still worked even after I knocked my favorite light off its tripod and the sky did a pretty awesome job cooperating too. Cameron is class of 2016 but I'm not going to share which class his mom and I were in together. Hint: It ends in the same number. Yikes!

Project ~ Pink Wig Pink Dress

When you have friends that will show up at a moment's notice and let you style them however you want. I was itching to use Annie's 5th birthday party Bubble Guppy wig again and had a random pink dress I needed to return to a collection. I added some pink lip color and we ran around my yard. Kiana was also the model for my Masking Tape shoot.

Mother/Daughter ~ Michelle & Brooklynn

Project ~ Daelynn

Shooting dresses that have sentimental value is becoming a theme for me lately so when Daelynn wanted to wear her prom dress again I was up for the challenge. I've been wanting to build a flower and lace neck piece for awhile and this was the perfect shoot for it.

Project ~ Grandma's Wedding Dress (Vivian)

It was Vivian's turn to wear her grandma's (my mom's) wedding dress for a shoot. She's quite a bit smaller than her older sister who wore it last time so we were able to style it longer and push up the sleeves. We added the ears to make it even more different since their hair is similar. He sister's shoot was in the woods so we thought it would be fun to do this one at the beach.
