On Monday, the weather was 70-something-degrees for this beautiful session.  Today, it’s in the 40s!  Luckily, the weather worked in our favor, and we were able to catch some pretty color, that ironically looks like fall colors.  Mollie and Phil are getting married this fall, and I cannot wait for more amazing pictures of these two!

midwest newborn, cake smash + family photographer

I have always had a love for art and storytelling. Photography allows me to combine my journalism background and my artistic point-of-view, which has become my dream career!

I am a wife, mom, and small business owner. On the days when I'm not at the studio, you can find me at home, editing, busy with my boys, or maybe redecorating my house, because the artsy-side of my mind just doesn't stop!
