•the mccaulla family

There are so many beautiful places in Nebraska, especially in the fall.  Recently I had the chance to travel to the Plattsmouth area to work with the McCaulla family – it was such a gorgeous shoot, on a beautiful fall day, with an awesome group!  I couldn’t have asked for a better family to work with.  From the oldest to the youngest, everybody was smiling and it made my job a breeze!  Thanks again for allowing me to work with you all!!

•samantha + lucas \\ waiting for baby

When I learned that Samantha + Lucas were expecting their first child, I was thrilled.  When Samantha asked me to photograph the next steps in their life, I was overjoyed.  It is a honor and privilege to photograph major milestones for my clients – clients who become friends.  I first met Samantha + Lucas for their engagement session a few years ago.  Then, I photographed their beautiful wedding day two years ago.  And now, I get to be a part of their baby story and I cannot wait to meet him or her!  They are such a wonderfully sweet couple who will be amazingly loving parents.

•the naiman family

When I was contacted by my friend Regina to photograph her extended family, I smiled.  I absolutely love to work with grandparents!  The unmistakable look between two people who have loved one another for so long is always fabulous to see.  The Naiman family did not disappoint!  I was blessed to work with them and I am honored to have been a part of these moments.  Time and life move beyond our control, so being able to slow down and capture life is why I am a photographer.  So often we take our families for granted.  We take time for granted.  And we assume we’ll always have tomorrow.  I don’t care who is behind the camera, but my hope is that every family asks someone to photograph them – to capture their love like the Naiman family did on a warm fall morning.
