| Averi Hamman 9 Months |

Sweet Averi popped in for her 9 month session and we had a great time with this little wiggle worm and her big brothers!  The weather was even perfect for us to head outside into the beautiful tall grasses before the weather starts turning cooler.  Jensen & Jace were big helpers in getting little sis to smile and even gave us some great big grins when they posed with her!  We can’t wait to see Averi in just a few short months!

| Chris & Beth |

It was a warm summer afternoon, with sun, clouds, and then sun again, as we captured Chris & Beth tie the not last weekend in a quaint backyard ceremony with close family and friends!  Smiles and laughter rang out after the ceremony as their guests got to enjoy many fun board games.  Once family photos wrapped up, everyone enjoyed a delicious meal and continued their games and wonderful conversations.  Every couple we capture is special to us, but none so much as those we have known for many years!  We couldn’t be happier for Chris and Beth as they embark on their new life together, congratulations you two!

| Short Family 2023 |

Last weekend we got to spend time with one of our favorite groups of people, the Short Family!  We have gotten to watch their girls grow over the years, capturing senior sessions, families, and a gorgeous wedding, we couldn’t ask for a more fun family full of love, antics, and lots of smiles.  We met at the always pretty Opdycke Park and it was adorned with the beautiful spring greens and wonderful weather.  It’s hard to believe that their youngest will be a senior this coming fall, but we are looking forward to what will be another outstanding session.  Thank you Short Family for the many years of smiles and love you have shown us, we can’t wait for this fall!

| Averi Hamman 6 Months |

Last weekend was brightened by spending Saturday evening with Averi and her brothers for her six months session.  Such a little peanut with beautiful blue eyes and a contagious smile!  The sound of Jenson & Jace’s voices lit up her face and made for some adorable smiles.  While her house is one divided between red tractors for her Daddy and green tractors for her Mama, she proudly grinned up at us while laying on her red tractor hanging quilt!  Jenson has chosen green tractors, Jace didn’t give us an answer, and we are wondering, has Averi chosen red?!  Averi you have grown so much and we can’t wait to see you at your nine months session!

| Averi Hamman 3 Months |

Sweet little Averi and her big brothers joined us last weekend for some adorable 3 month smiles!  She was so good and her brothers just adore her, they are so protective  and were very excited to have their photo taken with her; but getting three young ones to look in the same direction at the same time is never as easy as it sounds!  We can’t wait to see how much she grows and changes in three months for her next milestone session!

| 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!

| Brok Burtch 2022 |

The rain may have forced us to cancel Brok’s session back in September, but it didn’t put a damper on our session last Saturday.  Brok brought his A Game and we were able to capture so many great moments, his laugh is infectious and you can’t help but smile when he does.; he even found some of our spots for us and they worked perfectly.  Show this young man some love!
