Welcome to

The Blog

From homes tucked into the Kentucky countryside to backyards with room to run, this is where I share the stories of growing families, the in-between moments, and the beauty of life as it is.

Education

This past Sunday I met with Alexis & Eric at Beckley Creek Park in the Parklands for a very special session! Here in Louisville the temperature was only about fifteen degrees, but Alexis and Eric were all smiles the entire session – and for good reason! This special session was a pregnancy announcement session.

This past weekend I had the honor of photographing Adam and Mary Emma’s sweet little family in their Louisville home. It’s December and at a time when it’s a little too cold to go outside for long (especially with a newborn), it was the PERFECT day for this sweet in-home newborn session. These are some of my absolute favorite photos to take. I’d opt for an in-home newborn session over a studio session every day. This may seem stressful, but your home doesn’t need to be perfect!

Samantha and Daniel’s newborn session just so happened to also be their first wedding anniversary and I could feel the love walking into their home! As soon as their five year old opened the door and their two year old ran in with a snack cup, you could tell their life is full. Full of excitement and love, full of laughter and surprises. Big sister was full of smiles, and you could tell she loves to help. Little brother was full of energy, and much reminded me of my own son running around the house!

I went to Cassie and Brandon’s house on a Saturday morning and the moment their sweet three year old boy opened the door talking about dinosaurs, I could feel the love in their home. With two littles, this time of life can feel hectic and overwhelming, but on this day these four took the time to slow down (even if just for a little bit) and enjoy these moments together. They snuggled and laughed and played with their dog Winton, and most importantly they were present in the moment.
