• Ahhhh my goshhhhhh!!! This engagement session has me downright in love! Mara + Anthony are seriously so photogenic and so sweet – I had a fantastic time getting to know them during their session. They are so cute together and truly compliment each other so well. They know how to have fun and be goofy – I was so impressed with how they were up for anything!! We had a gorgeous night out at Rustic Oaks with the most beautiful lighting you could ever dream for. These two are tying the knot next May and I already know it will be one of my favorite weddings in 2017 🙂 I could go on and on, but I should just let you all see how beautiful their session was – ready, set, go!! 🙂

  • Super partial to this next blog post because I get to show off my ADORABLE nieces, Emersyn and Elsie!!! These two are the sweetest girls in the whole world and I’m so glad I get to be a part of their lives 🙂 Emersyn was 3.5 and Elsie was 7 months this summer during our session at the lake. We had a few tries at it and definitely dealt with some unhappy campers for a while, but we still managed to score some gorgeous images of these two blondies! Em and Els are little fashionista all thanks to their mom, Shelby. I’m eager to have you all see these summery images – so let’s get to it! Be sure to scroll all the way to the end – you won’t be disappointed! Haha 🙂

  • Happy Wednesday!!! I’m so excited to share Mel + Jace’s GORGEOUS July 30th wedding with you all today! These two are so perfect and meant for each other – their interactions are so genuine and sometimes just downright goofy with each other 🙂 I had such a great day working with these two and their friends and family. Mel and I met a few years ago at another wedding I was shooting and we instantly hit it off! I was so happy last summer when she contacted me about her own wedding – it was a match made in heaven 🙂 Mel’s dress and accessories were so beautiful – she picked gorgeous dresses for her bridesmaids that completely pulled the whole color scheme together. Olivet Luthern is a beautiful church to shoot at – and they have a brand new foyer area with tons of natural light and really cool wooden walls – I was in love! We also had some amazing weather for the end of July – typically, these weddings are hot and humid – but not Mel and Jace’s! We were very comfortable all day and that made for even prettier portraits outside – you’ll see below! These two are very special people – it’s so clear how many people love and support them – I wish you two nothing but the best in the future! Cheers to Mr. and Mrs. Fillner!! #finallythefillners
