The M Family: Day in the Life [Cedar Rapids, IA Lifestyle Photographer]

The M Family Day in the Life session took place on a chilly day this past fall and they filled the day with football, ball pits, puppy snuggles, and painting (plus the much needed bath afterwards). I love being able to gift these families with memories of day to day life, as it is right now at this moment. It's not perfect, but it's real, and it's uniquely theirs. Here are some highlights from the M family's Day in the Life!

Colette [Naperville Lifestyle Newborn Photography]

I spent an afternoon with the K family documenting their new life as a family of four (five including Zoey!) and man it was so much fun! Colette was a perfect model, sleeping basically the entire shoot, and how cute is big sister Kinsley? Here are some of my favorites, thanks to Jessie and Andrew for allowing me to photograph this time in their lives!

Black Sand Beach [Iceland Elopement Photographer]

I can't believe it's taken me this long to blog these photos from the shoot we did on the black sand beach in Vik with the stunning Anna and Matthew. Iceland is incredibly raw and beautiful, and I loved the contrast between the rolling green hills, the light gray basalt columns that seem to stretch into the sky, and the dark black sand. I can't express how much I loved this shoot, which ended with just Anna at the stunning Skogafoss waterfall where I got some of my favorite images from the entire trip. If you love nature, and want a breathtaking landscape for your wedding, I would love to photograph an elopement in this gorgeous country so feel free to reach out! ;)
