Eyelyn Rose was born January 29, 2020, right before the big shutdowns from COVID but hospitals still weren't allowing visitors. Once discharged and back home, Evelyn was 5 days old when I finally was able to meet her. I first met the Hayes back when big sister Louisa was born in 2018 and then I was honored to see their family become one at their elopement in Tennessee in 2019.. and now sweet Evelyn is here. It's one of my favorite things about my career, getting to be apart o

Lion + Ram in Middletown, OH is my absolute favorite place to shoot. There are so many studio options and they change it up throughout the year so you never get bored. I took my favorite little model (my son) for Valentines Day Minis and these are by far some of my favorite photos of him. I plan on doing these sessions yearly so make sure to keep a lookout to book! #annarborfamilyphotographer #inhomesession #inhomelifestylesession #lifestylephotographer #annarbornewbornphotog

Little Hadley was born early, on November 24th, 2019 and I was honored to meet the Guy's newest addition the very next day. Big sister, Harper was so sweet and gentle with Hadley. I can't wait to see this sweet family again and watch them continue to grow. #annarborfamilyphotographer #inhomesession #inhomelifestylesession #lifestylephotographer #annarbornewbornphotographer #annarbormi #annarbormichigan #annarborbabyphotography #annarbormiphotography #annarbor #annarborbabypho

When Lauren asked me about shooting a fruit bath session for her little man, Cooper, I was so excited! I had never done one before but think they are SO cute. Fruit baths are a fun change up for your baby’s milestone session. Not only are they adorable, but they keep your little one entertained. I mean what baby doesn’t love a good splash in the tub + FOOD! Cooper loved sucking on the lemons. I couldn't believe he didn't make a face! Check out this adorable session below an

You may recognize the Judy family from the spring when Whitney won a Mommy and Me session. (How could you forget the mother/son wine and baking session?!) I was excited to see them again and take more photos at their beautiful home in Kettering, OH. Here are a few from their Christmas mini session! I love how their dog looks like he is smiling too! #cincinnatifamily #mommyandmesession #columbusohfamilyphotographer #lifestylephotographer #cincinnatifamilyphotographer #lifestyl

Louisa Rose was born on October 16, 2018 at 4:57pm and she is perfect. I got to the hospital less than 24 hours after her arrival and couldn't believe how alert she was. Alert and beautiful! I loved seeing these new parents look at their new addition and can't wait to see the whole family in April when the happy parents get married! #annarborfamilyphotographer #inhomesession #inhomelifestylesession #lifestylephotographer #annarbornewbornphotographer #annarbormi #annarbormichi

Little Peyton was born on October 5th at 3:09pm and she is perfect! Kayla contacted me that evening after she was born and I headed to Southview Maternity the next morning to meet this new little family of three + lots of extended family. It's clear that Peyton is one loved little girl and I'm so happy for Kayla and Brandon. It's the sweetest thing seeing first time parents interact with their new baby and they were amazing with her. Welcome to the world, baby Peyton! #annarb

This was my first cake smash and other photographers had told me some kids will love it and some will hate it... Brandt? He wasn't so sure about what we were wanting him to do but started to love digging in once we started packing up and talking! How cute is he?! I can't get over those baby blues! Happy 1st birthday Brandt! #annarborfamilyphotographer #lifestylephotographer #annarbormi #annarbormichigan #annarborbabyphotography #annarbormiphotography #annarbor #annarborbabyph

I'm so behind on blogging sessions, I apologize! I shot this Mommy and Me session back in May with Kristin and her two kiddos at Eastwood Metropark in Dayton, Ohio. When I read the session questionnaire, I couldn't wait to meet them. Kristin wanted all candid photos and said she would be bringing props. I love a prepared mama! It was so sweet watching Kristin play with her kids and see the love they all had for each other. I look forward to many more sessions with this family

Tesla James was born on May 27th, weighing 8lbs and 0.6oz. She is absolutely perfect! Her sweet mom, Tiffanee contacted me to let me know and the next afternoon, I headed to Kettering Medical Center to photograph my very first Fresh 48 session, and it was a total dream. This type of session was new to me and one I’ve been excited to try out for some time now. I’m so thankful to Tiffanee who welcomed me during some very intimate moments. Welcome to the world, Tesla! #annarborf

I used to work with Alyssa and followed her pregnancy so when her sweet baby girl arrived in April, I could not have been more excited to go and meet her! Meet Kennedy. She was a dream and so easy to photograph. It's so fun to see first time parents and their interactions with their new addition. Being invited into someone’s home with a new baby, being able to capture those first moments, is such an honor. In home newborn sessions rank right up there with weddings for me an

This momma took advantage of my Mother's Day Mini Sessions and we took these photos ON Mother's Day at Carriage Hill Metropark in Huber Heights, Ohio. What a great gift to cherish for years to come! And just look at the matching dresses! I need a little girl to match with! #mommyandme #mom #mommy #momanddaughter #family #kids #children #littleones #lifestyle #naturallight #lifestylesession #toddlers #babies #families #annarbor #annarbormi #annarbormichigan #michigan #annarbor

When I looked at Instagram photos of Alexis and her daughter, I knew right away that they were going to end up with some beautiful photographs! I couldn't wait for our session! We had to cancel our first scheduled day because of rain and then it started raining during our rescheduled date! You would never be able to tell though. They were troopers and we were able to get some amazing shots in our short 20 minutes together at Cox Arboretum in Dayton, Ohio. How cute is Alexis a

Whitney was the winner of the Mommy and Me Session giveaway I had last month and when she sent me her ideas for the session... I knew it was going to be amazing! We had to take advantage of no snow (FINALLY) and get some shots in their beautiful yard. Then we headed into the kitchen for some fun. Check out the hilarious photos from the baking session! #annarbor #annarbormi #annarbormichigan #michigan #annarbormiphotographer #annarbormiphotography #detroit #detroitmi #detroitm

As soon as I read the pre-session questionnaire, I knew I was going to be spending time with a fun family! I was greeted by 3 year old Owen and the family dog, Haas and within minutes I was photographing a dance party! It's hard to believe I was only at their home for 45 minutes. I managed to capture them playing instruments, dancing, reading, baking, looking at photo albums, and just hanging out. They were so fun and I can't wait to do my next in home session! #annarbormifam

This session gave me all the feels. The way that this mother and daughter interacted melted my heart. Lifestyle sessions are definitely my favorite kind of photography to do for people. I love to capture real, authentic moments in your comfortable place - home. It was so sweet to watch this mama and her adorable, full of life little girl. I've had baby fever lately and seeing the love between these two multiplied it 1000x. #mommyandme #mom #mommy #momanddaughter #family #ki
