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.

South Bend Adams Class of 2023 | Sarah's Senior Portrait Session at Cobus Creek
Another beautiful senior! These sessions are such a joy to shoot. Sarah loved the meadow look of her friend’s senior pictures, so she called me to schedule her own portrait session over at Cobus Creek. It’s such a great place to take photos. If you like what you see, you should consider it for your session. It’s always changing with different wildflowers in bloom every time I go. It keeps things interesting!

This extended family session in Union Pier, Michigan, was full of laughter, love, and timeless memories.

At Home Newborn Photography | Goshen, IN
Capturing the precious moments of your newborn without leaving the comfort of home can be both convenient and stress-free. This Goshen family opted for a home newborn photography session, and in just 25 minutes, we created a beautiful gallery and even a mini film. If you're feeling overwhelmed by the thought of studio sessions, consider a home newborn session for a more relaxed and intimate experience.
South Bend Adams Class of 2023 | Addy's Senior Pictures
We had a blast during this Cobus Creek County Park session. We took her older sister’s photos here, and mom said “I love how it looks like so many different locations but you really aren’t walking that much.” This is one of the busiest parks for photos that I go to, and that’s exactly why. Sometimes there is a line for must-have locations, especially in the fall. It’s almost crazy. But, those crushed cement paths, the beautiful meadows, the wildflowers that always seem to be changing, the creek.. it’s a stunner for a reason.
Speaking of stunning, just look at this gorgeous girl.
