Marcie, Chris, Vivian, Everett, and Jonathan: Day in the Life [Marion, IA Family and Child Lifestyle Photography]

A week and a half ago I went to Marion and joined the W family on a Sunday morning for their day in the life session. Marcie and Chris have a beautiful home, and we enjoyed the fall like weather with popcorn on their porch, and playing in the backyard doing some of their favorite things (playing ball, feeding the birds, and hunting for locust shells among the trees just to name a few). I had so much fun hanging out with this family, and a day in the life session is the perfect way to capture your family just as they are in the moment.

Tate [North Liberty, IA Lifestyle Newborn & Family Photography]

Baby Tate was welcomed into the world on August 5th, and it was so much fun photographing him and his family at their home in North Liberty just a few weeks ago! This little guy was a perfect model for his debut photo session, and their pup Layla even showed off her skills. :) Here are some of my favorites from his session, enjoy!

Clara [North Liberty, IA Pet Photography]

Sweet Clara. This girl is a bit timid when you first meet her, but if you have treats she will quickly become your best friend. After hanging out with her at her home for a bit to get her used to me and the camera, we ventured out to Lake MacBride for some photos. I can't get over her adorable face!! Plus, she shares a name with my sweet girl, what's not to love?! Here are some of my favorites!
