Never ever tame boys crazy fuzzy hair. It rocks. Especially when they're as cute as this little one! Oh, and always and forever make them wear suspenders. :) 

When baby boys have blue eyes and long lashes it just melts my heart. And makes me a bit jealous... James is an adorable 6 month old who braved the cold and didn't even shed a tear.  Enjoys these squishy cheeks!

Tyler and Allison were married at St. Joseph's Church in Granville, with a reception following at the Le Mars Community Center. 

The sun as shining and the blanket of snow of the ground made for a gorgeous day, but it was probably the coldest wedding I've ever photographed! It was -7 with wind chills WAY below that!! But Tyler and Allison didn't let that deter them from having a fabulous day and I was so impressed with their great attitudes, even when they were standing in the snow without coats! 

I had the pr

Alexis is such a near and dear friend of mine. Seeing her become a wife, mommy, and watching her start her own business has been such a joy to see! I am so proud of her and all that she does! 

A few years ago we got together to dream and discuss our businesses and decided right then to team up! Alexis is my make-up artist and beautician for any of my brides! 

Miss Fashionista is ONE!! You can bet that her birthday outfit was one to remember. 

Maddox had fun taking pictures with a PIG! Was she even scared? No. Was I? Yes. I never been that close to a real life pig before, and they are really cute animals in their own way. :) 

Love spending time with this girl. Her personality is as big as her bows! 

Meet Jasmine, a fashionista who is going to PARIS next year.. for school.. high school.  Anyone else thinking "where was this program when I was in high school??"  I know I am. Best wishes to you on all of your adventures Jasmine!! Enjoy! 

Oh my GOODNESS it's session like this that make my heart so happy. Even though we were getting bit up by those nasty little black bugs.. are they gone yet?? The kiddos did great.  It may have been a not so fun experience for the little babe, but who could tell??

I love Fall and families like this. Enjoy! 

Meet the Kooima Family! A busy family of 4, with two of the most adorable boys! Especially when the youngest has red hair and sticks out his tongue when he smiles. :) 

Megan used to be one of my Drill Team Coaches assistant back in High School! It's always fun catching up with those from our past and seeing the beautiful families they have. 

Loved spending the evening being silly with these guys. Enjoy! 

Another wedding I am more than thrilled about for next Spring. Brian & Shannon have been together for about 5 years, and their engagement story is awesome!! He surprised her with a new outfit, spa day and so much more before he got down on one knee!

Ryan & Cady have PRAYED for this baby so hard, that it's crazy to think he/she is almost here! October is baby month, and we know both sides of the family are more than excited.

I have known these both for awhile because they are videographers and I absolutely LOVE working with them, even though they are cutting back on that a little bit. For obvious reasons. :)

Seth and Shelby were wed at Terrace View Event Center in Sioux Center, Iowa. They had a gorgeous greenery theme with pops of burgandy. 

Despite the constant threat of rain, it ended up being a gorgeous day!! I even needed to pull out my 'mini portable' fan. Well, I didn't NEED to, but I just couldn't pass up any opportunity!

Cloud cover is a photographer's dream, and you can tell why from the pictures! 

I absolutely wouldn't mind if I could photograph this little girl for the rest of my days. She is the cutest little red head with style and big eyes that just don't quit! I am already anticipating her one year photos. 

Seriously though, when a 9 month old wears a SCARF you know the photos are bound to be adorable! We may have all gotten bit up from mosquitos, (I had 16 bites on just one shoulder) but it was so worth it!!
