Featured Session: The Franke Family Documentary Session

Life with littles is just plain hard sometimes.

My prayer for this film as it goes out to this family in the thick of it, is that they can watch it in quiet moments and appreciate the beauty that’s being buried in all that busy business of keeping babies alive and fed.

Fresh 48 Session | Mishawaka Newborn Photographer

Aside from being able to witness siblings meeting one another for the first time, there is so much I love about a Fresh 48 session.

I love the white onesies, hospital socks, blankets and hats. There’s just something that all of us can relate to about that outfit. I takes you right back to those first few moments.

I love the freshly cut umbilical cord. It’s there for such a fleeting moment. Time moves so quickly.

I love mom’s look of pleased exhaustion. A tired joy that is like none other.

Newborn Photos at Home | Mishawaka Family Photographer

I really love a newborn photography session that takes place in the comfort of home. Maybe it’s just me, but getting out of the house with my newborns felt like a daunting herculean effort. Hiring a photographer to come to me and take photos of us in our own environment felt like a no-brainer. This session, and this session are more proof of that.

Four Generations | Elkhart, IN Extended Family Session

Four generations of Wilkerson women gathering at Great Grandma’s house. Great Grandma meeting her first great grandchild, baby Celine, for the first time. One flying in from Texas. Two flying in from Virginia. Sarah, the granddaughter contacting me for this session, said that her mom really wanted a picture of all of them together during their visit. She suggested JC Penny. Sarah knew there was a way better option out there if she’d give her a chance to look. She mentioned how her grandma’s house in Indiana had the best memories associated with it. She mentioned how well her grandma is doing at her age. She was really hoping someone could just come to the house and take casual pictures of them all “just hanging out”.

I feel like Chandler Bing.. Could I BE any better suited for this type of session?
