Newborn + Family lifestyle photography session | Worthington, Ohio

When I get to spend milestones with families like first moments at home, first birthday cakes… I feel such a special connection to them. I’ve spent lots of time with this fun family and got to hang out again recently because only child got promoted to “big sis” as they welcomed their newest addition! Hope I get to see them again for another fun cake smash session someday… not to rush the moments away. πŸ™‚ Scroll below for some favorites from our newborn lifestyle session.

Sunset family lifestyle photography session | Dublin, Ohio

These AMAZING clients have been coming to me since 2013, back when I was just getting started and still had SO much to learn about shooting, lighting, editing and more. I thank them for trusting me with their littles, for staying with me through price increases, for always being so easy to work with {although they are so much fun to hang out with that it never feels like “work!”} Clients like these are keepers!

I had to include a couple of Nat’s “bloopers” on the family lifestyle photo portion… she was supposed to be smiling, but was giving us a little of her pre-teen sass and it is worth documenting. πŸ™‚ Kids grow up so fast! Someday I’ll be taking their senior photos! But let’s not rush it…

Here are a few favorites from our most recent sunset session…

Sunset Maternity + Newborn lifestyle photography session | Columbus, Ohio

This family was the SWEETEST!!! I love working with first time parents as they anticipate and then welcome the arrival of a new baby to their lives. I got to meet them at their maternity session {they were referred to me by one of my most loyal and fun families!} and we had a lot of fun exploring the park and talking about life before baby. Then they welcomed me to their home shortly after baby arrived and I was able to document some of their earliest moments as new parents. I have the BEST job. And kind, sweet, laid back parents such as these (oh and a super cute little man!) make it that much more enjoyable!!!

Here are a few from their maternity session… then scroll down to check out their newest family member!

Baby makes THREE! πŸ™‚

I love when I get to watch families grow from two to three to four… and sometimes beyond! I met this cute couple at their first maternity session a few years back and now they are navigating the love and chaos of parenting two little ones! I was excited to meet their newest {gorgeous} addition, baby Nora, and had fun hanging out with them, reading with big brother Warren, laughing and “coaching” them through wrapping (although momma didn’t really need the help!) Here are some favorites from our lifestyle newborn session + add on swaddle/basket shot…

First birthday & cake smash photography session | Columbus, Ohio

This adorable family of three has another on the way… so we figured we’d better share some favorites from Adeline’s one year session before she becomes a big sister! Life is hectic, the world is crazy… but this beautiful, smiling angel eating her cake is enough to make anyone smile. πŸ™‚

Senior photography session | Dublin, Ohio

I enjoyed all my 2020-21 senior sessions, but this young lady holds a special place in my heart! I’ve known Leah for several years, survived a pandemic school year with her and we met up for FOUR different shoots between her two summer sessions, her fall session and lastly, her cap & gown session. We met for coffee just a couple days before her graduation & captured the last few memories of her senior year of high school. Although it took me all summer to blog these, I’ve been looking forward to sharing them and finally closing out our sessions from the class of 2021. We wish all our graduated seniors the best of luck as they head to college and out into the world this fall. Leah, you will be missed… but Capital isn’t far away, so instead of “goodbye” I’ll say “see you soon” (insert tear!).

Only two more Class of 2021 seniors to showcase before the new class comes along… and we couldn’t forget about Reina! I’ve known her for a few years and she is always good for a laugh (although she was unusually quiet during our session!?) I’ll miss seeing her smiling face and hope she enjoys life in the “real world” starting this fall!

Maternity + One Year Cake Smash photography

Maternity + One Year Cake Smash photography session | Hilliard, Ohio

I’ve worked with this family for a couple of years now and they recently welcomed a newborn! While we wait for them to pick their “favorite” images from that session {they are still cuddling and snuggling and enjoying all the new changes!} we figured now was a good time to share their fall maternity/family + one year cake smash. These guys makes me laugh every time we get together and are such a fun, happy little family of now four!

Check back soon to meet their newest addition too!

Lifestyle newborn photography session | Powell, Ohio

When Charlotte Elisabeth made her debut, little did she know how much she would be loved! These first time parents were not only head over heels for their newest addition, they were calm and relaxed even in the midst of a pandemic homecoming. I enjoyed chatting and getting to know them while capturing some of their earliest moments at home. I hope this sweet family of three ~ well, four counting pup ~ continues to grow in love and I hope to see them again!

Senior photography session | Dublin, Ohio

We have just a few more favorites to share from the graduating class of 2021, and we can’t forget about this young lady! Reagan did her “Sweet & Simple Senior Session” in Historic Dublin and we had fun walking around, chatting and finding the best photo opps. A few quick outfit changes and a couple different backgrounds gave her gallery some variety and voila… timeless senior memories captured forever! Wishing Reagan the best as she ventures out into the world of adulthood!
