Sydnie & Sophie {Benton, IL Child Photographer}

Yay for twins! Sydnie & Sophie were too cute for words, and look so very much alike! By the end of the session I was getting better at knowing who was who...Sophie is the talker! :)


















Thanks for a fabulous session, you little cutie pies! Hope to see you again in the future! :)

Lily & Travis {Sesser, IL Child & Baby Photographer}

This was a special session in more ways than one. It was Lily & Travis's first photo session together, Travis's first session since he was born 2 months ago, and we took some very special pictures of them both with a photo of their uncle Travis (baby Travis' namesake)who passed away in Afghanistan last year.













Thank you for bringing the kids for this session. I also want to thank your family for the sacrifice you have made for our country. None of us can thank you enough. God bless!!

Peyton {New Baden, IL Baby Photographer}

Meet Peyton. I photographed his parents wedding last year...and now here is their little guy! I love it when I get to continue to capture families as they grow!



"Put 'em up!"




He stayed awake for almost his whole session, but he took a tiny nap and smiled while he slept!












Thanks so much for bringing Peyton for his 2 month pictures, I'm looking forward to watching him grow this year!

Lori & Brad are married! {St. Charles, MO & Sesser, IL wedding photographer}

This wedding was amazing. This was the first time I had ever photographed a wedding at a casino/hotel, and it was just beautiful and fun and such a great location! Lori and Brad got married at the Ameristar Casino in St. Charles, MO, and I couldn't be more excited about their pictures!





Love this moment that my assistant photographer captured of the bride standing still and everyone rushing around her...








These of the groom with his men were taken in the nightclub.




This room was my favorite. It overlooked the river and had the most wonderful natural light!











The ceremony had been planned to be outside on this private event lawn. It was cold and kind of rainy that day, so it was moved indoors. But we ran outside and did some photos outside in the chilly breeze!




















Thank you for choosing me to photograph your very special day! It was beautiful!
