I am starting to get a little nostalgic over here! I met Jen and her family when she was around seven or eight years old – about the age my own little girl is now. And, here she is all grown up into a beautiful, young woman. She is often one of my awesome go-to babysitters, too! We just love Jen. I am going to cherish this last year of having her “around,” but I wish her the best as she gets ready for her senior year and beyond.
Enjoy every minute of this next year, Jen,
I have loved the privilege of getting to know you!

Two years ago this evening, I was snuggling our boy to sleep for the very first time. He melted my heart into a puddle that night, and he has continued to do so pretty much every night since. He is still our most content but can throw a pretty mean scowl with that up-turned eye brow when he’s not happy. His most-used word is “truck,” and that goes for just about anything with wheels, but he is also currently into “choo choos.” He loves to keep up with big sister and brother. It has been so fun to watch all three really begin to have fun together this summer catching butterflies, swinging, riding bikes, and the big kids are always eager to teach him something new – good or bad.
I just love to see his personality blossom and shine.
Happy 2nd birthday, Rhett Ephriam! We love you so!

Introducing, Mr. & Mrs. Schroeder! Things were heating up in York this past weekend as these two tied the knot, but despite the scorching temperatures, the day made for an extraordinarily beautiful June wedding complete with cheerful sunflowers and gorgeous hydrangeas.
Two teachers who have fallen in love, this is the year Miss Harlow will be returning to school in the fall as Mrs. Schroeder. I am so excited for these two to start their married life together as they both are organized & on-the-ball yet always ready to show their fun side.
Congrats Greg & Jen! It was an honor to be a part of your special day!

Hello again, Novotny family! I looked back, and this is the 6th mini session I have had the pleasure of photographing for these wonderful people. It has been so fun to see the kids grow over the years and keep up with what is going on in each other’s life. Steph is one of those people that radiates such grace and positivity, and it definitely resonates throughout her entire family.
It was great to see you all again this summer, you four! Enjoy!

Almost 3 Year Old Braden” turns 3 the first part of July, and that is close enough in my book! His grandparents reached out to me to do his milestone session as a surprise for his parents while he was visiting grandpa & nana’s house for a couple weeks this summer. I cannot think of a better gift for a pair of loving parents! Good job, Grandpa and Grandma! Plus, they had so much fun getting all these sweet smiles on him for pictures, and they simply love having his company at their house.
Happy early birthday, Braden, you are so loved!
