Here’s your sign to send your teenager in to see me JUST FOR FUN! It doesn’t have to be a special occasion or senior photos, it can just be to freeze their faces for a moment before they go and grow up on you. Thanks for trusting me to photograph your kiddo, @injector_aleasha! He’s a doll. Also side note I am getting some heavy 80’s Corey Haim vibes from him!🖤

Portrait of a Lady on Fire. I can do hard things, even if those hard things are meeting yourself exactly as you are in front of your own lens. This set makes me feel vulnerable, and powerful and beautiful and maybe even a little sad. I hope you take time to authentically meet yourself this year, in whatever way that may look and find beauty there too.❤️

Wednesday “Winnie” Louise is here and I’m already obsessed. With a name like that, this girl is going places! I had to resist the urge to choose Goo Goo Muck by The Cramps for the song (iykyk) but I think Isn’t She Lovely is spot on too. 🥹Congratulations again, Katelyn & Mason! She’s just gorgeous. ❤️

Jenny is someone I’m continually awe struck by. She runs a homestead where she grows their food, takes care of countless animals, and still manages to be an amazing wife and mother. I’ve been lucky enough to visit in the Summer when there were baby pigs running amok and perfectly ripened strawberries ready to eat and I think maybe heaven might look a whole lot like that. Thanks for having me out, friend!

This child wanted nothing to do with me and everything to do with Luke, his great grandpa’s horse. The sting of not winning him over is eased by the fact that these images are really, really freaking cute. Thanks for tolerating me, Cooper! xoxo, The Annoying Camera Lady.

Minis are often the best choice but full family sessions are perfect for a more relaxed timeline, outfit and location changes and allow for kiddos to decompress and regroup. Thanks for trekking downtown this week for your session, these are just the cutest! ❤️

It’s a really wonderful time to live in the Midwest. I’ve caught myself nearly in tears with how beautiful Fall is this year. And, the Hockett Family scheduled their session (months ago!) on the most perfect day ever. Please give Viv a hug for me! She stole my heart when she reached out to hold my hand on our walk back. 😭❤️
