Cows and kittens and pumpkins oh my! I have been emailing with Jessi for a little while now and by her emails alone I knew we were going to click. But never in my wildest dreams would I have expected their Garnavillo Iowa engagement session to go THIS well! I can’t speak for them but […]

It isn’t everyday that we get to travel up north. But I would be lying if I said I wasn’t excited about it! I love Minnesota so when Michelle and Brandon wanted a Rochester engagement session I did a quick Google search of the location and said a big fat YES! I arrived at the […]

Today’s rain is eerily similar to Erika and Jared’s Iowa farm engagement session last week. It down poured just half an hour before our start time. But we knew the radar looked like it would clear up so we took a chance! After my GPS took me on the scenic route, I met up with […]

Their love story started in the mountains of Colorado. Cassie and Marcus are both originally from the Midwest, however, a desire for a change of scenery brought them both out west. To anyone that visits this beautiful state, the mountains are always a highlight. But for these two they are extra special. They hold the […]

Casey & Kailey Rain. The radar had been clear and the sky was sunny until I got to Wartburg. Then when I checked the radar again my heart dropped. It was coming. And it was coming quick. I had backup locations and backups for my backups “just in case.” But I was bound and determined […]

While the weather wasn’t exactly working in our favor last week, I can honestly say we captured some of my favorite portraits to date! We had a week filled with seniors. Then capped it off with Evan and Robin’s Iowa engagement session. Robin pinged me the location and based on the satellite images alone, I […]

Anytime we are shooting at the very end of spring, I am just praying for no rain and some golden light. And by some miracle, we got both!!! Mike and Sarah chose the always beautiful Motor Mill for their portraits and I am in LOVE! It may have been an adventure to get there (definitely […]

The forecast is calling for even more snow and while I am not a fan in the slightest, my photographer heart is LOVING how magical it makes everything! The sun peeps through the clouds and everything glissens and shines. So while we may be slowly freezing in our boots, the photos make it all worth […]

The forecast was grim. Just three days before Jonathan and Clara’s engagement session, we had record setting cold temperatures with wind chill hitting close to -50 degrees! I figured there was no way we would be having an outdoor session come Saturday, but we held off hoping the weather channel was telling the truth and […]

I was refreshing the weather every chance I could get, because rain was coming but we knew that if we rescheduled to a later date we would loose the last glimmer of fall. So rather than a sunset session, we had a “sunrise” engagement session! It was still cold but other than a couple sprinkles […]
