Sophie is ONE!!!

Sophie is one of my first "Growing Year Package" kids (meaning three shoots over the period of a year), since I just started offering it a year ago! I love getting to watch them grow. I especially enjoy getting to know the families more, and it keeps me accountable to taking more pics of my own children when I sit down to edit them and reflect on their changes. Sophie brings such joy, tender smiles, and the kind of presence that easily encourages this family to add more children to their home. Congratulations Sophie, on being a big sister; looking forward to another year with you and Baby Schlueter!

CELEBRATING LIFE!

What a Spring! These past few weeks have been filled with the celebration of life as I’ve been busy capturing different stages of a few babies’ first year. A shout out goes to the parents of these little dolls and one new father’s white shirt that was christened! (Hope the stain came out.) =)

I’m most excited about the opportunity I have to watch and capture these adorable kids as they grow. Besides my Asa having me photographing him as he grows for the rest of his life whether he likes it or not, THREE of them are involved in my “Growing Year Package” that’ll allow me to capture different stages of their first year of life. It’ll be fun to see how they’ve grown and changed by the time they turn one. Here are just a few of my favorites from each shoot. Enjoy!
