New Hardcover Books for Portrait Clients!

I recently changed the hardcover books that I offer to my portrait clients, and I just received my 5x5 sample yesterday! It is so gorgeous, these photos really do not do it justice. This one has grey linen on the spine and back, though there are a ton of color options in various finishes. I also offer this book in an 8 1/2 x 11 (sample for that coming soon!). Let me know if you would like to see this gorgeous book in person, and I'd be happy to bring it to your session!

Coelle, Chris, and Julian [Iowa City, IA Maternity and Family Photography]

This family....I don't even know where to begin. I met them when Julian was a newborn, and their session changed the direction of my business. When we got together again for Julian's 6 month session, we all went out for dinner after and have been friends ever since! My favorite thing about these three is how funny they are and how much they love to laugh.

Over the past year, Coelle has become such a great friend to me and also started working with me as an assistant/stylist. We've had so much fun working together, and she's become a fabulous photographer along the way - I can't wait to see what next year will bring!

Coelle and Chris are expecting baby #2 in mid-September (does she not look completely amazing?! I mean...) and I am personally dying to know if it's a boy or girl! Julian will be such a great big brother, and baby #2 is so very lucky to have such wonderful parents.

Speaking of Julian - this kid is my absolute favorite person on the planet. For real.

To sum it up - these three are gorgeous, funny, and some of the best people I know. I am so lucky to call them friends, and it was an honor to photograph this time in their lives! I hope you enjoy this preview...

Meredith + Andrew [Iowa City, IA Engagement Photography]

Meredith and Andrew are planning a July 2015 wedding, and I am so excited to be photographing these two. Their engagement session was so much fun, I can only imagine what their big day will be like!

Despite the massive amounts of bugs, these two had a beautiful evening for their engagement photos in Iowa City. One of their favorite things to do together is play games, so they also brought along cards to incorporate into their session.

Meredith and Andrew - thank you so much for an awesome session and I can't wait until July! I hope you love this sneak peek.
