Winter ONEderland 1st Birthday Cake Smash

As a photographer, winter is a slower time of year for me. I’m still shooting in the studio – lots of newborns, cake smash sessions and milestone sessions. But I’m not shooting much outdoors (except for the occasional maternity session).  This gives me some time to get to things I put on the back burner […]

A Mother’s Bond With Baby and a Smile to Melt Your Heart – Zionsville Newborn Photography

The moment I handed this little girl to her mom for the first pictures (mom and baby poses) she gave us a huge smile. It’s clear this little girl recognized and loves her mom already. It really is amazing on how babies know their mom right from the beginning of life! Meet Leighton. This beautiful […]

I Love You Deerly 1st Birthday Party Theme – Cake Smash Photography

This sweet birthday boy had an “I Love You Deerly” 1st birthday party theme for his cake smash session. This theme is a fun one for so many reasons. It’s a little boho, a little rustic, a little sweet and 100% adorable. It’s the perfect mix of all things that a 1st birthday party theme […]

At Long Last a Beautiful Rainbow Baby Girl – Carmel, Indiana Newborn Photographer

This sweet girl knew that rainbow babies (child born to a family that had a previous loss) hold a special place in my heart and she milked it for all it was worth! ⁠This was the only smile I got the whole session. It was epic and perfectly timed. This sweet girl gives me hope […]

Boho Boy 1st Birthday Cake Smash Session in Indianapolis

I’ve adored watching this happy little guy grow over the last year! For his 1st birthday session we did a boho themed cake smash with blue accents. I do lots of little girl boho sessions, but it was fun mixing it up and making it a little more boy-ish for this birthday boy. He loved […]

Cake Smash Session

Alice in Wonderland Cake Smash Session – Indianapolis Photographer

Where are all the Alice in Wonderland fan?! This first birthday cake smash session was TOO CUTE! And it was the PERFECT theme for this sweet little birthday baby. The theme is Alice in Wonderland and this special girl is named Alice! Alice was such a happy girl for her session and she really enjoyed […]

Baby Girl Lily – Indianapolis Newborn Photography

This sweet family came to the studio for a newborn shoot for new baby, Lily. Her due date was April 15 and she made her arrival on April 4th- Easter (last year 2021 – I just decided to save this shoot for her first birthday)!   Big sister was obsessed with Peppa Pig and asked if […]

The Best Boy Mom – Indianapolis Newborn Photography

I started off being a boy mom. It scared me at first. I was a little sad when I found out we were having a boy. I only ever had one sister and most of my cousins are also girls. I thought that I didn’t know how to raise a boy. But the truth is, […]

Working With Two Year Olds – Zionsville Newborn Photographer

You never know what you are going to get out of a two year old. They can be scared or hesitant of me (a stranger), straight up defiant, tearful, or bouncing off the wall crazy. Their reactions can vary from moment to moment and they can have all these reactions during one session. Anyone who […]

Surfing Cake Smash Session

This sweet birthday boy had all his surfing dreams come true. He was a happy little camper for his 1st birthday cake smash session in the studio. The theme was surfing and we went all out with blue and teal balloons, surf board, water creatures, and lights. And I’m just obsessed with his perfect hair […]
