Keegan Ryan

Oh Mr. Keegan Ryan, Happy Six Months!! I can’t believe I have been a Mama to this perfect little human for six months already. I also can’t believe I have three kids and have kept them all going in this chaos for six whole months, hahaha. But most of all, I can’t believe I have breastfed exclusively for a full six months. Its crazy to think my body not only grew him for 9 months but now has been feeding him everything he needs for 6 whole months. Although he is my third baby, he is my first breastfed baby so it means a whole lot to me. So what better way to celebrate then to do my first ever milk bath photo session!!! This little pumpkin is not sitting up just yet so it looked a little different then I had imagined but that just means I will get to do a second one when he can sit up fully unsupported and be safe.

* Please note to any Mama’s reading this, a fed baby is a happy baby. Although I am breastfeeding now, not all my baby’s were and that’s okay. Don’t compare yourself to anyone else’s journey. You are always a rockstar!

Little Miracle

This little princess is one amazing miracle. This is Lara Grace. She was perfect in everyway for her session. Mama followed my simple newborn guide I sent her prior to the session and we couldn’t have had a better time. We got a ton of photos while babe was sleeping and right at the end she graced us with her big beautiful eyes. Thank you Korrine and Dan for meeting this princess.

Little Man

My youngest baby, my littlest boy. I took Keegan’s newborn photos a while back and they have been sitting waiting to get edited. It has been so hard to figure out which ones to edit as they are all so meaningful and special to me. I completely feel like it is harder to edit your own family's photos because well you want to edit every single photo, even the silly, goofy, and terrible ones - and then of course show them to everyone. But here they finally are I was able to get one of my best friends to come in to the studio so I could be in some of my family photos, which is even more meaningful in so many ways. Since COVID there were a bunch of things we missed out on during this pregnancy and birth, so being able to be in my family photos in a completely safe environment is beyond important and amazing, With this post being sent out I am also officially starting to slowly take clients into my private studio and slowly come off maternity leave. Expect to see lots of this little dude's photos on here, haha..

‘‘Donut Grow Up”

Mr. Lucas rocked his first birthday donut session!! I cannot believe this little guy turns one, TODAY! This chunky dude has a special place in my heart and he made 2020 not suck so bad. But gosh I wish he grew up a little slower. Thanks Lucas for being you, you made the session super easy and it was great capturing your spunk in your photos! Until next time <3

Williams Maternity

Getting in a few end of season beach sessions put a real smile in my heart. But capturing this awesome couple before they are to welcome their first child into the world was even better. Brittney is one beautiful mama and made this session so easy. Thank you for allowing me to capture this moment for you guys!

Dimmick Family Beach Session

What better way to jump back into sessions after having my own little one then to come back with this cutie. I can't believe it has been a whole year since the last time I saw this awesome family. The weather was great, the family was great and their photos were even better! Can't wait to see you guys next year!!

Keegan Ryan

Phew its been a crazy couple of months, with Covid and being pregnant things were very uncertain. But on August 13th 2020 the littlest love of my life was born. The hospital stay was not the same as my other two children. No visitors were allowed in so that meant I had to take my own hospital pictures. That’s right just hours after my caesarian section I was climbing on chairs and bending down to try and get some good shots of my little love. It was a bummer since I wasn’t able to be in the photos with my husband and baby, nor have my older kids come in to take photos of them with Keegan for the first time in the hospital, but I am just glad I was able to get some photos to capture this special moment

‘‘Winter One-derland”

Little Jimmy rocked his cake smash last week! But we wouldn’t have been able to do it with out his big sister Zoey to help! She is the only one that could get him to smile. The bond and love between them was awesome to see while capturing another great milestone for this family. Can’t believe Zoey’s cake smash was so long ago! Thank you Nielsen’s for allowing me to watch your family grow.

Sweet Family

The Sperduto's are such a sweet family. The girls were amazing during the session and were so loving to their baby brother; it melted my heart. Not only could you see the love they had for him, but you could see in his eyes how much he loved his sisters. It was just a wonderful thing to capture. Thank you so much for allowing me to do so!

Oh Mr. Lucas

This little boy has a very special place in my heart. He is the youngest little in our tribe. His Mama worked very hard for him and we prayed right along with her. Now he's here making us all fall in love with him more and more every day. I already think he has changed so much that we need to have another photo session with him - so don’t be surprised if you see his sweet face up on my news feed again soon, haha. :D
