Sara H. {Senior}

Alright... so I don't normally post quite this many photos for a sneak peek, but Sara had a double session with me, and had a whole bunch of super-cute outfits to wear!!! I had an absolute blast with Sara & her mom (& their cute little pup too) and have some of the best images to share for it! I couldn't have asked for a better senior model! I will leave the talking up to the images below :) Enjoy!! & thanks for being so amazing Sara!!

Scherbring Family

This right below is why I love what I do! I get to work with the sweetest families & kiddos around!! Doug & Caitlyn have got a great little bunch on their hands-- we were able to get some great updated family photos & little Miss Claire (seen in the middle with that sweet little pony-tail) just turned 1, so after we got some family images, it was her time to shine!! Caitlyn had her in an ADORABLE little dress & lace romper! This little one was full of energy & sweet little smiles! I hope the Scherbring family enjoys their sneak peek!!

Aaron C. {Senior} & The Conrad/Errthum Family

This was one of my favorite sessions this year-- the Conrad & Errthum families made it a blast to be around them and photograph! I have never heard of anyone wanting a stuffy, boring portrait session~ so I try my best to at least hope that everyone has a bit of fun! :) And I think we did! We shot a few quick family photos & then it was on to Aaron's senior portraits! He brought along a bunch of sharp, colorful outfits that went well with the 2 new locations we went to! And his final season of football at Maquoketa Valley is fast approaching so we shot some images up at the football field as well!! I think we got some great portraits! :) I hope the Conrads & Aaron enjoy their sneak peek! :)

Renee H. {Senior}

Meet Renee! She did AMAZING during her senior shoot! I remember her saying she thought she couldn't pull off the serious face... are you kiddin me?! I think we proved her wrong!!! They are some of my faves!! :) She brought lots of cute outfits & we had fun roaming around town {& a little country too} shooting some great images. We also did a few sports shots too-- The last one rocks! Totally her mom's idea! I hope Renee & her family enjoy the sneak peek!

Kyle

Meet my cousin Kyle-- he did awesome at part 1 of his senior shoot! (look for part 2 later this year) Despite it being absolutely MISERABLE out, we rocked this mini-session! If you know me, you know that I am a tad bit obsessed with horses, so when my aunt Vicki gave me the opportunity to shoot some photos of Kyle with his horse, I was all about it! We got some pretty awesome shots of him with his horse Timothy in a amazing field of rye that was about to be harvested! I just love all of these shots-- there are many more great ones! Hope everyone enjoys this sneak peek!!

Saeugling Family

Meet little Kameron ~ he is such a sweetheart, and SO handsome! Kim is his mommy & I have grown up with her since I was little (as well as at the sitter ~ her mom watched me as a baby!) and she could not have gotten a greater blessing than this little man for sure :) Mom & dad love baseball, so it was a big influence on this shoot! I think he is destined to play ball! We couldn't do many shots outside, as it was just miserably hot... but Kim's brother & sister in law opened their home for me to finish the shoot- out of the 90+ degree weather! They have a great room with lots of natural light, so I was able to get some pretty gorgeous family shots for them, as well as a few with his big cousins!! I hope that they love their sneak peek, and I enjoyed meeting their little man! He is going to be best buds with our little man when he gets a bit bigger :)

Abby & Jett {Married}

All I have to say is what a beautiful wedding day Abby & Jett had! I love spending the day with groups like this-- there was love all around & Abby & Jett are the most easygoing super-sweet couple you will ever meet! Surrounded by family & friends, these two tied the knot after 9 years of dating ~ they were meant for each other! Abby was such a gorgeous bride, & I loved her colors & details! The most amazing part of the day was the father/daughter dance - Abby's dad Dan obviously has the most wonderful love for his little girl, and it showed-- he wore a shirt that said "I loved her first" and must have spent hours with her practicing their dance! It was a sight to be seen! I just hope someone captured it on video-- it would put the youtube father/daughter breakout dance videos to shame!! They totally rocked the dance floor! :) I thoroughly enjoyed shooting their day & hope the couple has a blast this week on their honeymoon & loves their sneak peek from their wedding day!!
