Finally. I am so so happy to be shooting outdoors again….even though most days I want to pull my hair out over this crazy Nebraska weather, nothing compares to the glorious outdoor light, colors and textures. A few weeks ago I met up with this sweet couple for a fun urban maternity session – and I just photographed their new baby girl last week! I love photographing maternity clients and their beautiful baby bellies…such a very special and exciting time to be a part of.

This little lady was about as perfect as they come…super cute, super sleepy, and super sweet parents. I could instantly tell how much she was adored, and already had dad wrapped around her finger. ;) Thank you so much for allowing me to share in your first memories. Such a stunning family…

Meet Sawyer. I could squeeeeeeze her all day long. Those sweet cheeks…bright eyes…and squishy lips. I totally and completely adore her. Miss Sawyer is another Bebe Plan member, here’s a peek from her newborn session…

And now. Still just adorable as ever. :)

Another sweet 6 monther! The time always goes by in the blink of an eye. It seemed like just yesterday that I was photographing his newborn session…

…and now 6 months. So many great expressions. Such a beautiful baby boy.

One of my very favorite things about my job is that I love seeing families grow. I have photographed Liam’s big sister since she was a newborn, so it is an absolute pleasure to work with their growing family again. He was such a great baby and so sleepy for me. Big sister even jumped in for a couple…which I completely ADORE.

I could just eat this little guy up! He is another Bebe Plan member that is growing way too fast, SO stinking adorable with all that baby chub. Love him.

I’m still alive and kicking. I’m here to share some of the wonderful sessions I’ve had already in 2013. It’s hard to believe this year is almost half over already! Back in January this little fella came to see me for his 6 month session, he’s just the sweetest thing ever. Such bright beautiful eyes and so full of personality.

Hello blog readers! I was so excited when Kristen ask me to be a guest blogger as a part of her Decorating With Pictures series. Every day in February she has a different guest blogger sharing how they decorate with photographs. Check it out for lots of ideas and fun decorating tips!

As photographers we are endlessly creating images and portrait displays for our clients, but it’s always been a priority of my own to have beautiful images displayed in my home as well. Photos can liven up almost any space in your home, I mean who can resist those smiling faces looking back at you every day? It doesn’t matter if you have a little space or a lot of space, opportunities to display your photos are everywhere. Today I’m sharing how I display photos in my own home.

Upon entering our home you are greeted with this lovely display that continues up the stairs on the second level. This display showcases cherished photos from our session with Pastel Photography.

Three 11×14 images matted to 16×20 frames hang in the dining room.

A collage of 3 prints displayed on the mantle.

I am so in love with this wall gallery, it’s my favorite thing in my home (besides the people, of course. ;)). It showcases almost 14 feet of various images taken of my kids & family over the years – all printed in black & white to unify the display, and hung in our basement family room. If you can’t tell by now, I prefer the look of a matted print. :) I love the gallery style look of a crisp white mat and a simple black frame for wall portraits. Picture overload!

(All frames from this display were purchased at Pottery Barn. Actual photographs range in size from 14×14 to 4×6)

A few more from the family room…

(10×20 framed collage print displayed on easels below)

Framed portraits atop the dresser in the master bedroom. The kids are usually the focus of photo sessions, but it’s important to remember images with your significant other as well. :) Feel free to mix and match frame styles for a more eclectic look.

Each one of my girls has photos displayed in their bedrooms as well.

(Fun tip! Use room coordinating scrapbook paper behind photos to create a fun matted look. The photographs are taped in place on top of the scrapbook paper.)

Thanks for letting me share! I hope I have inspired you to get your images in frames and start enjoying them!! :)

She is adorable. She is feisty. She was soon to be 2 at the time of this session. She is so precious I could just eat her and those curls right up! Enjoy a few of my faves from her session.

I’m still going through some of my sessions from this fall. I just loved this little guy. We were able to get through several setups and use some really fun color combos. He was such a great little sleeper for me.

Our 4×8 accordion fold books are one of the most popular products we offer. I completely adore this one!

I have been photographing this family for years and we FINALLY got ‘the’ shot….actually 2 of them. ;) A family shot with everyone cooperating AND an added bonus….just the cutest little sibling shot EVER!! I adore the heck out of these girls and always look forward to their sessions. They are all such individuals, so beautiful and just absolutely charming. A few of my faves!

Handsome little dudes. A session with these boys is pure humor from beginning to end. For that reason, I have a sneaking suspicion that there is never a dull moment in their home. :) I’m so happy to be able to capture their brotherly (or not so brotherly ;)) love.

For the last few years, we’ve made a tradition of my Aunt and cousins driving from Minnesota to visit us in the fall. Our kids enjoy being crazy nuts together, we make a trip to Roca Berry Farm, and I shoot their yearly photo session. There is much fun to be had by all, and this photo session will be hard to top for sure – the kids did amazing and had a genuinely fun time. One of my favorite things to hear. ;)

Now…this session is easily among my top 3 favorite sessions of 2012. The colors. The clothing. The faces. Everything came together perfectly.

She’s quite a little firecracker. Just my kinda lady. ;)

I photographed this precious baby girl all the way back in October. Miss Isla was definitely a rockstar sleeper and such a gorgeous baby with the best cheeks and lips ever. Some of my faves. ENJOY! :)
