| Boyd Family Portraits | Rock Springs Nature Center | Decatur IL |

I’m so excited to show off some of the Boyd Family’s portraits! You might remember Holden, one of our 2016 WLHS Seniors. One of my favorite times to create family portraits is before seniors (or new college freshmen now!!) go off to the next chapter of their lives.

While I now know first hand that your kids will ALWAYS be your babies there is a real transition after they graduate college and go off into the world. That time is the PERFECT time for an updated family portrait to celebrate your family before your little birds leave the nest.

And, of course, as part of all family sessions we have to get just mom and day (like when’s the last time you had couple’s portraits done solo?!?!). These two were so sweet and I absolutely love this image and am so glad it made it into their wall collage too!

| Paradee Fall Family Portraits | Decatur IL |

I love love love this family and am SO excited to show off some of their favorite images from this past fall’s session. I’ve had the privilege to photograph the Paradee family a few times all starting with the lovely Ms Bridget’s senior portraits a few years ago!
 
I’m honored that these guys came back again for me to create some portrait art for their walls along with Christmas cards! In the midst of this heat wave I thought it would be great to remember fall is coming and look back at some cozy fall portraits. It’s hard to believe we are already filling our fall and Christmas schedule for this year too!

| Morrison Family | Decatur IL Family Portraits |

This beautiful family came to me to create some VERY important images which would be their last with their beautiful dog Scout. Having two aging dogs of my own who are very much a part of my family I’m always extremely honored when clients call upon me at these sad times. Scout is now forever with the Morrison family on their walls (and in their hearts of course).

Plus, we had to get some images of just the kids while we had them out and all cleaned up nice! This whole family was wonderful to work with and I’m so glad I got the chance to meet Scout and work with them.

| The Taylor Boys & The Perfect Mother’s Day Gift for Grandma |

Get ready for cuteness overload!!!! I was so thrilled when Danielle called me to setup a special session for creative gift ideas for her mother for Mother’s Day this year. Danielle was a new client this past fall and I got to meet her family to create their Christmas cards (check those out below too) and this time I got to meet her sister and her happy little boy Maddox.

| Burns Family Portraits | Decatur IL Family Photographer |

Are you guys ready to see two absolutely adorable little boys and their family?!?! I’m so excited that it’s time to share the Burn’s family portraits with you. Dana won one of our auction packages recently and she was so excited for some sunset portraits and though clouds literally rained on our parade the first day we had her set we were able to get her in one a beautiful evening at the Scovill Zoo.
