Josie: 1 Year [Iowa City, IA Child and Family Photography]

Sweet Josie! It's always good to see this family, and I can't believe it's been a year already since her newborn session. Time definitely flies! This little lady is super cute - I just love her little smile.

We started the session with the family, including their awesome pup Ruby, at Kent Park. From there, we returned to their home to do a cake smash, and though Josie wasn't sure she liked cake, we still got a few good smiles! :)

Pattie and Benton, great seeing you guys again! Josie is adorable, and it's always fun photographing your family.

Kristen + Lawrence [Lake MacBride Engagement Photography]

Kristen and Lawrence are planning a July wedding, and because of the crazy late spring we had, this was actually a reschedule but they ended up with a perfectly gorgeous day. These two live in Kansas City, though they are getting married at Celebration Farm here in Iowa City (Kristen is from Cedar Rapids originally).

I love how sweet these two are together! Kristen has a beautiful smile, and as I'm sure you can see by the photos, Lawrence just adores her. They both love to laugh, and also clearly love each other very much. I can't wait until these two tie the knot, and I'm thankful to be a part of their day!
