The D Family [Iowa City, IA Family and Child Photography]

It seems like I had a lot of VERY windy sessions at the lake this year, starting way back in the spring, but it's still such a beautiful place to shoot that it makes it all worth it. This session was no exception, but Chelsea, Tyler, and Olivia were up for whatever I suggested. Olivia loved the pinecone we found, and was all smiles for Josh, who assisted. They also brought their sweet dog Annie along, so we got a few pics with her as well!

The M Family [Coralville, IA Family and Child Photography]

This fall I photographed my sister Rachel and her husband Matt, along with their two kiddos Lillian and Drake for their annual holiday cards, which also coincided with Drake's 6 month and Lilly's 2 year photos. I had to work fast, as Lilly's 2 year old attention span quickly lost interest, but we still got some great stuff. My favorites are the individual ones of the kids with Rachel and Matt. Those smiles are contagious!! Here are a few of my favorites from their session.
