Bowen [Solon, IA Lifestyle Newborn Photography]

Baby Bowen, don't you just love that name? He joined big brother Ryker, along with mom and dad for his photo debut and did such a great job modeling! Those big eyes just kill me, what a cutie!

Kristen and Travis - thank you so much for inviting me back for maternity and newborn photos of your new little guy! It is always so great to catch up with clients, and congratulations again.

Here are a handful of my favorites from his session, I hope you enjoy!

While Bowen was being changed for the session, Ryker was having a good time looking at himself in photo books from his previous sessions. It was so cute!

The A Family [Iowa City, IA Extended Family Photography]

I don't get the opportunity to photograph extended families very often, and when I do, I typically don't blog them as they are rarely candid or what I would consider my typical style of photography. However, with the A family, who I met up with when everyone was visiting over the holidays, I had so much fun that I had to share. These guys were a ton of fun, and how cute are these kiddos? I love some of the candid shots, and a family that loves to laugh always makes the session a great time! Here are some of my favorites, I hope you enjoy!

Jennifer + Pedro [Iowa City, IA Engagement Photography]

Jennifer and Pedro are planning an August wedding this year at Sugar Grove Vineyards in Newton, and we met for their engagement session shortly after Christmas. These guys were troopers, for sure, as they live in Las Vegas so this cold Iowa weather was a bit of a cold slap (even to me, and I'm used to it on a daily basis this time of year!). We met out at the lake, and went to some of my favorite spots, and even managed to capture Iowa's version of a waterfall. My favorite thing about these two is how much they love to laugh, and enjoy being playful with each other which made them incredibly easy to photograph and get to know them better! Here are some of my personal favorites, as well as many that they chose for themselves. I hope you enjoy!

Jennifer and Pedro, I can't wait to photograph you both again in August! :)
