Saracen [Iowa City Newborn Photography]

Guys. Seriously, I am the worst. I keep meaning to blog, but since starting a full time job my priority has been getting my clients their galleries. However, it's Labor Day weekend and I didn't schedule ANY sessions and so it's my goal to get a ton of blog posts done and ready to post. So, some of these are from a few months ago, but bear with me - I have to share these adorable families and couples!

Saracen was named after a character on the show Friday Night Lights, which is a show Ciara and Dustin love to watch together. He is SUCH a cute, calm baby and was a perfect model for the newborn shoot. How gorgeous are these three?! Here are a few of my favorites...

Jenny + Pedro [Newton, IA Sugar Grove Winery Wedding Photography]

Jenny and Pedro were married on a gorgeous August day at the Sugar Grove winery in Newton. The day began with Jenny getting ready at her grandparent's home, followed by a fantastic ceremony officiated by her brother. The entire day had an intimate feel, and every portion of the day was personalized to be perfect for Jenny and Pedro.

My favorite thing about Jenny and Pedro is how they love to laugh together! It's easy to see how in love they are, but also how much they really just enjoy one another's company. It was a joy to photograph their day, and here are some of my favorite images...
