This little guy's mama's sister (following still?) is my very best friend! They were actually my VERY first clients when I officially started this photography venture so I was so grateful to have them come back and since Quinn was just a few days old at that session, I was excited to see him at six months.

When Beth first called me to ask about availability for an extended family session she started telling me about the various buildings and backdrops that would be available at her in-laws' farm. Not sure if I started drooling over the potential then or after we hung up. I kid! But seriously...the farm was a photographer's dream. Our day happened to be an incredibly bright and sunny day and the time that worked best for everyone was early afternoon, so unfortunately we had to work around the sun but still managed to find some great locations. Thank you, Timm family, for inviting me to your home!

I really enjoy extended family sessions. They are such a wonderful thing to have, they just don't happen that often, especially when one of your sisters lives in Belgium, like this family! Thanks, Meurer family, for inviting to your home to capture these memories for you.

I thoroughly enjoyed this session, was able to catch up with this beautiful mama since we went to high school together and meet her adorable family. The kiddos did amazing!

See what I mean by amazing? Mister on the left MAKES this photo! Love it.

I was honored to be asked to capture this beautiful family's annual get together. This was my first time photographing a large group of people and I couldn't have asked for a nicer set of subjects :) Everyone (even the dads and children!) was beyond amazing and the love this family shares was beautiful.

Beautiful family! Loved the clothing selections :) We had lots of fun exploring the park and even playing a little baseball!

This handsome little guy was full of smiles! It didn't take much to get him grinning and for the most part, he thought my sneezes were hilarious :) What an adorable little guy and beautiful family!
