These photos were taken with the help of my awesomely talented sister, Alexis. I chose & edited a few of my favorites to share!! The only other time we’ve taken “formal” family photos was for our adoption announcement in the fall of 2015… It’s definitely a goal of mine to get it done…
Collin’s Senior Pictures
Our family usually makes it down to Arizona to see Wes’s family once or twice a year, but this trip had a specific purpose: taking Wes’s brother’s Senior Pictures! We had already been planning on visiting the Arizona-Sonora Dessert Museum while we were there, so I thought that seemed like a great spot to take…
Sweet Sisters
I can’t believe my baby girl is 3 months old already! My wonderful sister took care of her newborn pics for me, but I thought I’d give the next round a go. I’m not awesome enough to accomplish this every month like some of you lovely ladies, but I’m good with the every-3-months schedule! Overall I think…
Embracing Fall
Most years I dread the coming of fall. It’s not so much because I dislike fall itself, but more because I know that the coming weeks will only continue to get colder and darker – and eventually lead to winter {which I do dislike!} This year however I feel as though I’ve been enjoying it…
Zoo Trip!
Over Labor Day weekend, we thought it would be super fun to take a trip down to the Des Moines Zoo – little girl LOVES animals and we thought for sure she’d have a great time. We ended up getting there early in the afternoon {which just happens to also be nap time} and there were…
Fun in the Sun
This past month has been fun, but crazy! The last week of June we spent enjoying visiting Wes’s family in sunny Arizona. Two days after we got back from that, we spent the Fourth of July with my family, and before we even got home Wes’s dad & brother {yes, from AZ} were already in town…
Baby Gender Reveal: It’s a…
My brother and sister-in-law, who are expecting their third child in October, just found out the gender of their new baby and let me have the honour of photographing their gender reveal! It was super cute to get to see their kiddos reaction…
A Great Day For Planting Flowers
Spring is Here!
Words cannot express how happy I am that it’s finally getting nice out again! I think my child would live outside if we let her. We go on walks just about every day now, and the past couple of times I thought it would be fun to capture a few pictures along the way. *************************************…
“1-Year-Old” Mini Photo Shoot
Since we just got a new camera, I thought it would be fun to try my hand at taking our own “milestone” pictures. I’m sure I’ll need more practice, but since little girl just turned one I figured we might as well give it a go! Plus I’m certain there are some grandparents who would…
