The R Family [Plainfield, IL Maternity Photography]

This session was especially fun for a couple of reasons - one being that this mama-to-be is my younger sister, and I got to spend time with my sweet niece Waverly who is about to become a big sister. When we were little, we used to call my sister Abby "The Terrorizer" because she was constantly instigating and found it quite humorous to irritate us in any way possible. So, it's extra fun seeing her as a mom, though she still has that devilish way about her...like the time she bought those yappy dog robots in the mall for all of the nieces and nephews at Christmas (which she conveniently wasn't in attendance for). I think somehow those all got "lost"...thankfully, I only have a dog, so no annoying toy for me that year!

Anyways, I can't wait to meet baby girl in August! Here are some of my favorites from their maternity session.

Courtney + Corbin [Iowa City, IA Wedding Photographer]

Where do I start with Courtney and Corbin's big day?! I just adore these two - they are not only beautiful but fun, and sweet, and hilarious. They love to laugh, and they are clearly very loved by all of their friends and family (um, adopt me please?!). Every minute of their day was perfection, from the beautiful (surprising, for Iowa) July day, a stunning bride, a handsome groom, a super fun bridal party...the list goes on and on.

I think my favorite thing though about Courtney + Corbin is how genuine they both are, and it really shined through on this day. I was absolutely honored to have been a small part of their wedding, and I hope you all love this sneak peek!

Huge thank you to Josh, my second shooter - I couldn't have done it without him!
