These are a few of my FAAAVORITE things… my Evie girl, and tulip fields! Our girl is 6 months old and sitting up like a big kid these days. She’s got the cutest two tiny teeth you’ve ever seen, is starting to babble even more, and still loves to put everything in her mouth… including tulips ;)

Is there ANYTHING more magical than the Grand Floridian Resort at Disney World during the holidays?! Absolutely not! This was always the resort of my dreams: the elegance, that gorgeous lobby, the class white buildings with the red roofs… it has been one of my top favorite resorts for as long as I can remember.

19 years of knowing Ryan and Shannon. College, serving in ministry together, and lots of portrait sessions together over the years… but this one is hands down my favorite one yet! The newest addition to their family surprised everyone, and stole their hearts at the exact same time.

There’s something uniquely sweet about photographing a brand new baby in the space that was designed for them. It doesn’t always work out to do so for several reasons, with natural light in the room being one of the biggest factors, but when we can, it always results in magic! I loved how bright and simple Kit’s room was, and it made for the perfect backdrop for her first portraits.

I’ve waited a long time to meet you, sweet boy! I had the joy of first meeting R+D so many years ago when I got to photograph their beautiful Shadow Creek Wedding, and since then I’ve had them in front of my camera every fall for updated portraits together, so this one was extra special for me getting to photograph them as a family of THREE!

Is there anything better than peak fall colors here on the east coast? The end of October was really showing off for these two and gave them gorgeous weather and even better color for their wedding day at Shadow Creek!

My first trip to Disney almost 20 years ago was with my mom and one of her best friends since she was 12, Ingrid. She and her 3 beautiful girls have joined us for a girls weekend extravaganza, and this picture was an absolute must for me today :0)
