| Judy Allen 1 Year |

This last Sunday afternoon I got to spend some time with little Miss Judy who just recently turned one!  How did the last year fly by so fast?!  She has grown so much and is absolutely adorable!  We may not have gotten any smiles from her and she gave us a run for our money, but she loved the little pumpkins and gave us some great nose wrinkles.  We love seeing our newborn clients back in studio for milestone sessions, watching them grow and capturing those special ages makes our hearts smile.  Wishing Miss Judy a wonderful year ahead!

| Olivia Miller AHS Senior 2023 |

The rain in September kept us from capturing Olivia for her senior session, but last weekend we had beautiful, cool weather, with just enough fall color still on the trees!  We had a fantastic start downtown and even found some new locations there and then headed out to our local nature preserve for a walk on the trails and some pops of color.  Olivia’s gorgeous smile lit up every photo and she knocked her session out of the park.  While we know the nice weather will be gone before we know it, we have loved all of our fall outdoor sessions this year and hope the nice weather continues for a few more weeks!  Thank you Olivia and family for a wonderful Sunday evening.  Best of luck with the rest of your senior year!

| Chris & Beth 2022 |

Love and Laughter were in the air last Saturday as we headed out to Independence Dam to capture Chris & Beth’s engagement!  With unusually warm weather for October and lots of great color, it was the perfect backdrop for their session.  Having known Beth for quite some time, it was wonderful to meet Chris and see the smile that he brought to her and the light that shown in her eyes.  It was great to catch up and find unique spots and some breathtaking views of fall beauty across the Maumee River.  Congratulations Chris & Beth, thank you both for a wonderful evening!

| Judy Allen Newborn |

There’s nothing quite like morning baby snuggles, tiny noses, tiny toes, and cute little yawns.  Our Saturday morning was spent cuddling not quite two week old Judy and enjoying her big sister Sophie.  Some little ones will sleep during their session, Judy slept for a bit and then was awake, but we were able to catch some adorable expressions in between!  We loved creating a fall look and Miss Sophie fit in just perfectly with her baby sister for their sibling shot!  Congratulations Allen Family, thank you for sharing your sweet new girl with us!

| Verhoff Family 2021 |

Grand Rapids, Ohio has always been a favorite spot for any session; the river, mill, downtown, and metro parks provide so many wonderful opportunities!  It was the perfect backdrop for the Verhoff Family last weekend to update their extended family photos and to grab a bite at the local pizza eatery after.  We may have had to wait out a few raindrops and showers, but once it cleared, we had perfect fall weather, adorable little ones, and a few adventurous adults exploring the river!  Thank you Verhoff Family for a fun afternoon!

| Jace Hamman 9 Months |

Jace is 9 Months and on the move!  Sitting still is no longer of interest to him, it’s now go time.  He has grown since his last session, but just as cute and looking just as much like big brother as before.  He has such blue eyes, you can’t help but smile when he smiles at you.  Three months always goes so fast, his one year session will be here before we know it!  Happy 9 Months Jace!

| Burtch Family 2021 |

A rainy Saturday morning cleared off just in time for a beautiful, cool afternoon session with one of our favorites, the Burtch Family!  It’s been a couple years since we did updated photos of the whole family, and with one off to college and another not far behind, it’s never easy to coordinate everyone’s schedules.  We luckily found a date that worked for everyone and made the most of our afternoon before evening football games kicked off.  While walking around we found perfect spots at Pontiac Park and were even able to enjoy the music of rib fest playing in the background of downtown.  Family sessions allow for so many different combinations of groupings; from parents and kids, to just the kids, individuals of the kids, a recreation of a photo done each session, and anything else we can come up with!  Thank you Burtch Family for a wonderful afternoon!!!

| Quinn Cline AHS Senior 2022 |

Fall is certainly in the Northwest Ohio air as the crops are close to harvest and the trees are beginning to show a hint of color.  Cooler air greets us in the mornings as the school kids wait for the bus and the Archbold football team is enjoying their Friday nights under the lights!  We were lucky enough to spend a Sunday evening with Quinn, a member of the football team and avid fisherman.  We had a great time exploring and doing a little fishing at Harrison Lake and then we hopped back in the car for a quick stop at Goll Woods and a wrap up at the football field.  Quinn and his teammates are having a great season this year and the community is having just as much fun watching them!  Thank you Quinn for a great evening, best of luck with the rest of football season and your Senior Year!  Go Streaks!

| Rohrs Family 2020 |

November has been unusually warm and we are all taking full advantage of it!  The color has almost completely disappeared from the trees, the crops are harvested, and Thanksgiving is just around the corner!  Last weekend I had the pleasure of capturing the Rohrs Family, a family that is very dear to our hearts because they are also part of our family.  We headed to their family farm to use their gorgeous red barns and then headed out to their woods to find some color and even see where Tyler dropped his first deer from his tree stand that you see in their sneaks!  Growing up just down the road form one another, enjoying horse rides, farming, and even polka dances together, we love spending time with them all; Luke, Heather, Tyler, and Abbi all played a part in our wedding, we enjoy hearing Luke play and sing in the family polka band, and he is my favorite polka dance partner!  They all have hearts of gold and love our kids like their own, they’ll do anything for you, and I couldn’t have been more excited when they asked to do a family session this fall.  Even though we didn’t have much of a sunset to end the evening, we still captured a wonderful silhouette with the farm behind them; Thank You Rohrs Family for a wonderful evening!

| Wheeler Family 2020 |

My time with the Wheeler Family never disappoints, this year we went off roading!  A good reminder to always come prepared, or at least bring a 4×4 😉  Little Miss Moline has grown so much since last year’s session!  We headed out to their woods and found some great spots that hadn’t gotten too wet from the previous days rains.  Miss Mo hammed it up for the camera and couldn’t have been any cuter; we even did her traditional John Deere pedal tractor pose!  I love spending time with this sweet family each year, thank you Wheelers for a wonderful morning!
