Oh man, this little guy is sure to have everyone swooning over his baby blues! Mr. Lextin is all sorts of handsome as he is learning to sit on his own, army crawl, and does not even seem to mind if he topples over…at least not on my super fuzzy blanket! I love that in so many of these photos he has his little tongue out when he smiles really big. He is such a happy baby! I cannot wait to watch you keep growing, big guy, just not too quickly!

I feel absolutely honored and humbled to get to photograph this family’s third precious babe. It has been such a joy to get to meet them when they first welcomed big brother Landon, then sweet Emmalyn, and now tiny, new Nora Brielle. There is so much love in this family, it just radiates in their smiles, their voices, and the way they interact with each other. Thank you for letting me capture these darling photos of your growing family, Aarin & Danielle.
You have created and are raising a wonderful little family!

Quiet by nature but very much a gentleman was Tanner as he offered to help carry my chair all throughout the session. Then I felt terrible, we thought his glasses had fallen out of my camera bag toward the end of the session, so we retraced our steps through tall grass for a good 10 minutes then decided we ought to at least finish his photos before the sun sunk below the horizon. After we called it a wrap, his little brother and sister came over to see him, still looking for his glasses, and one of them asked, “Are you sure they’re not in your bag?” While explaining to them we had already checked it but opening it up one more time to look- there they were! They had slipped into a smaller inside pocket of my bag.
Whew, I was so relieved we had really never lost them!
Enjoy your senior year, Tanner, and thanks again for carrying my chair!

What a beautiful June wedding day for Spencer & Krista! The weather was perfect, Krista had planned the details beautifully, and, surrounded a fun bunch of family and friends, these two tied the knot! And, as a cherry on top of this fine day, the couple’s flower girl and ring bearer were as cute as a button. Scroll on to see what I mean!
Spencer and Krista, I wish you a lifetime together of love and happiness as wonderful as your Day 1 – congratulations!!

As a good friend of mine knowing I would be having a baby this fall, Brittany was super thoughtful to schedule her annual family session early this summer before the heat set in. I have said it before, but I truly mean it, I love watching and spending time with the Melvins. Dru and Brittany do so well with their four energetic, always-on-the-move kiddos, and I cannot help but think they are the portrait of an American Dream family working hard to raise their kids right and keep on lovin’ each other every step of the way. Hats off to you two for raising this sweet little horse-loving crew, and also for keeping pants on Chase for the entire session!
Enjoy the rest of your summer!
