So thankful the rain stayed away today, so I could meet with this sweet young lady. There are more to come, but the story behind this is amazing. When mom and dad were unpacking after they got married, they realized they both had THE EXACT SAME CHILDREN'S BIBLE growing up! What a beautiful tradition to pass on to their kids! Thank you Miss E for...

March 20, 2019  •  Leave a Comment
It's First Holy Communion Season! I stole away with this young lady for a little time at church this evening. As she walked up, I caught my breath for a minute. Just wow. And this. She kept saying, "Shhh, Jesus.":) Do you feel His presence, C? I have no doubt you do. And a little Rosary... a By about now, we moved it outside. That smile!...

M Family in the country

December 14, 2018  •  Leave a Comment
I was blessed to drive out to the "country" to visit this fun family of...BOYS! I have watched their family grow and just love catching up with them. We decided to venture outdoors. One little guy wasn't so keen on posing for pictures, so we opted for a little family togetherness instead. I love that we were talking with the littlest about almos...

St. Gianna Molla, Pray for Us!

May 27, 2018  •  Leave a Comment
I had the honor to capture a few images at Mass with Archbishop Naumann who brought a relic of St. Gianna Molla to our church for the day. There was one little #5 who was a bit EXCITED about the Knights and their SWORDS! [He contentedly crawled up into his God Dad's lap during Mass, and after the excitement, nearly dozed off. #hemaybe4yearsoldbuthe...

Guess who got to drive out to the country today to explore a new-to-me church, and celebrate with a family of 8 as their #2 son (out of 6) received his First Holy Communion? ME! I love how he was so focused during Mass, reading along in his Missal. Littlest brother wasn't so sure about me.:) I loved capturing this one of just H and his Dad and M...

AF FHC Sneak Peek!

April 22, 2018  •  Leave a Comment
I had the gift of meeting this young lady's big sister 2 years ago when I took her FHC photos. It has been so great watching these kids grow and mature. Now Miss A. So fun spending time with her! I LOVE the shadows on her sweet face and her seriousness when I asked her to pray a few Hail Mary's with her Rosary. And then when Mom brushed back a c...

And...looking dapper. Please pray for him and his classmates as they receive Jesus this weekend and next weekend. And pray for his classmate who was suppose...

FHC Season continues...

April 18, 2018  •  Leave a Comment
So in between the rain, and snow, and sun, and more snow, I met with this young lady, first at church... And then we headed outdoors. Maybe its because my #2 and #3 are boys and I got busy taking photos of #3 doing parkour, I just can't get enough of this girl. I think its the sweet dimples and sparkly eyes...I can't even. She is a dancer, thi...

April 05, 2018  •  Leave a Comment
So...the weather hasn't been awesome for spring sessions. But they are still happening! Check out this young man. His mom says pictures usually end up looking like he is in pain. I don't think he looks that way at all. So sweet. And here. He is reading about this Resurrection (of course) from the Gospel from his namesake.:) Thank you this Mr. L...

With softball, soccer, dance, SCHOOL (smile)..

It's the most wonderful time of the year M Family sneak peak

December 09, 2017  •  Leave a Comment
So. You probably know I don't typically do sessions during Advent. I strive to slow down during these weeks before the birth of our Lord to enter into Christmas with joy and peace. Spend time praying in a deeper way and making sure to keep up with traditions that the kids recall almost better than I do. Try to catch up with life and avoid the hustl...
