Annie & Ellie | Newborn twin photography

I was so excited to find out my cousin, Lori and her husband Joe were going to be having twin girls and offered to take newborn photos for her.  I travelled to their home in Urbana last week when the twins were 2 weeks old to take their photos.  Of course Jenna tagged along with me!!   They are absolutely perfect and so tiny!  Jenna and I were in baby heaven....there was always a baby to hold and we didn't have to share!    I've already informed Lori that I will be back to take photos soon!  I can't wait to see these two sweet baby girls again!

Elliette Jane (Ellie)

Annika Willow (Annie)

Seriously - does it get any sweeter than this???  ♥

Ellie was wide awake during the first part of the photo session and later fell asleep to cuddle with her sister.

Annie was so sweet and sleepy.  Love how it looks like she has a little grin on her face!

Senior Sessions

McMillen Family | Van Wert, Ohio family photography

I photographed the McMillen family at the request of their daughter Erin.  She wanted a family photo of her parents, siblings, and families to celebrate Father's Day.  What a great gift!  I met them at her parents cute house on Father's Day evening to capture their family together.  

Aaron | Ossian, Indiana baby photography

I have been photographing Aaron's brother Charley since he was 6 months old and was so excited to meet his new baby brother and photograph him as well!!  I met Aaron and his mom, Katie, at their home to photograph Aaron for his 6 month photos.  Aaron was all smiles and so laid back.  He was more than happy to be the center of attention and have his photo taken!!

Suzuki Family | Van Wert, Ohio Family Photography

The Suzuki family is one of my favorite families to photograph!  I've had the privilege of photographing them several times over the past few years....and each time is just too fun!  We started this session at their home in Rockford and then drove to Van Wert to finish up. 

Taylor just turned 16 and is getting her license any day!  

Ian just turned 14 and will be entering high school next year.

 And then there's Kade!  This little guy just makes me smile.  His mom wanted to schedule their session ASAP because Kade is missing both his front teeth.  Love that toothless smile!!

Sebastian Family | New Haven, Indiana Kids Photography

Whew!  This photo session wore me out!  Avery and Levi are twins who were just getting ready to turn one.  Easton is their big brother who was just turning 3.  (AND...their Mommy is pregnant with #4!)  We had  to use 3 adults, lots of toys, a few pacifier/bottle breaks, and a full container of Cheerios to help us hold their attention during the session....but in the end we got some cute photos of all 3 of them!

Avery - such a girlie girl with the most beautiful blue eyes

 

Levi - so laid back and loves to snuggle

Easton - such a ham and a great big brother

Bruce & Becca | Van Wert, Ohio Wedding Photography

Bruce & Becca were married April 21st at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Van Wert.  They had a beautiful (but chilly) day for their wedding....and such a fun wedding party.  Between the wedding and reception we stopped at Central Insurance and Camp Clay for some more informal wedding photos and then we headed to the Jr Fair Building for their reception.

Thank you so much for asking me to photograph your wedding!  Congratulations and Best Wishes!!

Krueger Family | Ft Wayne, Indiana Photography

I know I have said it before, but I love when my clients recommend me to a friend.  I would bet that 90%+ of my photography sessions are a result of family, friends and clients sharing with their friends!  There is no greater compliment than having a former client recommend you to one of their friends.

The Krueger's are one of those families...recommended to me by one of my clients.  I met them at their parents' home on a Saturday afternoon to take photos of their 3 month old son Steven.  I also took some fun photos of their new little family of 3.

Steven really wasn't into smiling the day I took his photos....he was just content to lie there and let me snap away!

Carlee | Van Wert, Ohio Senior Photography

I photographed Carlee for her senior pictures this past fall and was so excited when her mom contacted me to do a spring session as well.  Carlee is one of those girls who is a photographer's dream ....an amazing personality, beautiful smile, and just a natural in front of the camera.  

Congratulations on your Graduation and best of luck in the future!!!
