Iowa Lifestyle Family Photos
I love nothing more than a sweet lifestyle session in an early 1900s apartment! Clara and Eva called this space home for a year while living together, and it was so special to capture them (and cat Puddin’) in this gorgeous Sherman Hill building. Let me know if you’d like to book your own lifestyle session here!
I will probably pull back on photographing families in 2022… but after seeing sweet photos like this, maybe I won’t! Leave your vote in a comment if I should do family pictures in the upcoming year. ;)
Meet sweet babe Macie. She’s the cutest little one… and I loved capturing her first days at home with mom, dad and proud big sister!
My sweet friend Rachel asked me this summer about my availability to photograph her family after the arrival of her first child, Evy. I was, of course, over the moon! In-home family photos take the cake for just about anything… especially during winter. ;) Click the post title to see more sweet newborn photos!
When people I know have a new baby, I find a way to go catch some newborn snuggles. FAST! ;) Little lady Abigail was no exception! Her mom grew up in my home church but was enough older than I that we were never friends, just acquaintances. Fast forward a while and with Facebook, we’re now “friends”.. haha! Anyhow, Alison and I connected when she was looking for someone to watch her baby this summer. I met her & her husband, all three of us hit it off (this is gonna be a long friendship, y’all) and everyone was just eager for baby to come.
Family photos tell the story of what bonds a specific cluster of humans, and who they are together. We don't take family photos for today, we take them for the future. They will be passed on, and remembered, for years to come! Personally, I love looking at family photos from my childhood! They help me reminisce (or wish I could) on the places we've been, the people we were, and simple things... like what I loved as a kid. (My purple corduroy overalls and matching hat, if you were wondering.) So, it was a true joy for me to drive from Des Moines to Cedar Falls to take family pictures for our neighbor family earlier in July!
