A Maternity Session Close to My Heart

Every maternity session is special. But this one hit a little differently. This beautiful mama is my cousin. And not just any cousin. She was a baby when I started babysitting. I remember loving her so much as a kid. I named my baby dolls after her. I thought she was the cutest little thing. […]

Family Photos at 100 Acres Park in Indianapolis

Creek Location for Indianapolis Family Photography – A Full Family Session

Why Tweens Deserve Updated Family Photos Too

I first photographed these sweet twin girls when they were teeny tiny newborns. Their last session with me was their cake smash for their first birthday. Hard to believe that was nearly a decade ago! Fast forward to now—they’re 10 years old, full of personality, and their mom decided it was time for updated family […]

How to Be Easygoing During Your Family Photography Session (and Why It Matters!)
