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.

A ten-year dream finally came true for the Steele family — their new home in Brown County, Indiana. This family film captures the heart of their story: fairy gardens, muddy boots, wildflowers, and morel mushrooms on the land they’ve loved for years. It’s not about the house just yet — it’s about the journey, the laughter, and the joy of finally being home.
Grow With Me Series Finale! | Donnie and Leroy are 1
In this Grow With Me series, I had the privilege of capturing Donnie and Leroy’s first year.

Watch as I take you on a journey from newborn to one-year-old, blending special memories and family milestones. This is one of my most emotional films, and I can’t wait for you to experience it.

The Lewis Family Film + Photos
There’s a letter board in Kara and Dan’s living room that reads, “There is no such thing in anyone’s life as an unimportant day.” And truly — that’s what this family film is all about. The Lewis family’s every day is full of laughter, movement, and connection. This film captures the beauty in their right now — the voices, the chaos, and the love that makes home feel like home.
