wedding & lifestyle photography
As primarily a wedding photographer, newborns are such a sweet change of pace for us. & Luke was the most perfect little subject! These were extra special because a few weeks before, I did his mom’s maternity session! I am so glad Ryane and Layne let me photograph their little guy! How cute are his outfits?! I see a lot more newborn sessions in my future! <3

These are some of our favorite maternity photos to-date! Ryane is the sister of one of my very best-friends, Lacy. I knew even before I met her, that I would love her if she was anything like Lace.
She and her husband Layne felt like old friends from the moment we met at the beginning of this session. I am obsessed with the beautiful light that we were blessed with, her perfect dress and all of the greenery – it was a gorgeous day for a gorgeous momma!
After Luke was born I was given the opportunity to photograph his sweet newborns & those will be coming to the blog very soon! <3

It is not everyday that your best friend gives birth – and not everyday that she asks you to photograph it. I thought photographing her wedding was something special (and it totally was) but THIS was something more. Being there with her and Kyle as she delivered Kaden; it was life changing. I went home in a fog for the rest of the day. Thinking to myself, ‘I watched a BIRTH today’ — what did you do?! It was by far the coolest thing I have ever witnessed; and that is saying a lot coming from the girl who was terrified of birth and anything involving pregnancy for the entire 26 years of my life. But on St. Patrick’s day that all changed. And since then I am saying “give me all the birth stories”! I think I could photograph a birth story everyday from here on out and not get burnt out. These photos captured the biggest moment in Abbey and Kyle’s life and it was an honor to be able to preserve these memories for them. Love you all, my favorite little family of three. Hugs!
PS- Of course, I left out a few of fully naked baby Kaden because as his protective Aunt Callie, I don’t want those floating around on the internet for strangers! 😉
This little buddy has my entire heart! This is my very best friend’s first baby and Kaden has us all smitten! He was PERFECT during the session and didn’t make a peep while we played dress up and turned him into a little pup and a turtle (ha!) —SO CUTE! I can’t wait to watch this little guy grow and love on him. But for now if he can stay this tiny for a while; that would be perfect! <3

It’s not every day that your best friend is pregnant; and not every day that you get to photograph her maternity photos! This was the first baby for Abbey and Kyle and Jaison and I could not be happier.
We have photographed so many special memories for them (Christmas photos, the proposal, engagements, bridals, wedding, maternity, birth and now new newborn photos) — capturing these moments have been some of the sweetest times we have all shared as a family; because that is what these two are to us – family.
Kaden Lusinger made his way in to this world on St. Patrick’s Day — a day we will all remember and cherish! We have loved being aunt Callie and uncle Jay and can’t wait to wait that sweet baby grow! We did his newborn photos this last week and I can’t believe it has already been two weeks since he was born! I just thought to myself, oh my gosh I need to share Abbey’s maternity session on our blog because time is flying by! I photographed his birth and that was one of the most life changing sweet moments I have ever experienced. Â Loved capturing this sweet moment for Abbey and Kyle & all of their future moments to come <3

Taylor and Barrett are parents to one adorable little girl, little Lyla. We loved doing a lifestyle newborn session for them a few months ago! We have done many newborn sessions in the past but we realized we haven’t really blogged any! & that is something we are going to change! As animal lovers, we were over the moon that they wanted to include their fourth family member in some of these – their sweet pup, Boo. & We completely fell in love with this little family even more while taking these pictures. We have gotten to work with Taylor through the bridal fair for several years now, but we loved getting to hang out with her whole family this time. So here is a glimpse at their sweet session, we are so excited to feature the Reynolds family on the blog today! <3
So much sweetness!
