The A Family [Ankeny, IA Family and Child Photography]

This session with the A family at their beautiful Ankeny home was definitely a lot warmer than the last session (we had snow!!) and for that I think we were all grateful! It had been 2 years since I photographed Kelly, Jon, Claire, and Jack (and of course, Lucy, that sweet ball of fluff!) so it was great to catch up and see these guys!

Here are a handful of my favorites, and one hilarious outtake that I couldn't help but include in their gallery because it made me laugh so hard!

Casey + Matt [Iowa City, IA Maternity Photography]

Casey and Matt were one of my wedding couples last year, so when they emailed me to tell me they were expecting and that they would love for me to photograph their maternity + newborn session I was thrilled!! I just adore these guys, their October wedding last year was so gorgeous and we had a great time spending the day with them. I can't wait to meet their new addition!!

The H Family [North Liberty, IA Family and Child Photography]

I am SO behind on blogging all of these adorable fall sessions, so brace yourself for a blog explosion! I photographed the H family and their sweet little guy James at the lake on a beautiful fall evening. I just love his little smile!! Here are a handful of my favorites.
