Saturday, August 18th couldn’t have been more perfect. I headed up to Neligh, Nebraska for Dara & Jake’s wedding day. Not only was the drive up there relaxed & beautiful, but so was the wedding! Although, this was my first time meeting both Dara & Jake, I felt like we’d been friends for a long […]

The morning of Saturday, May 19th was a gorgeous one. I arrived at the Dugan’s family home and found all the ladies and Weston relaxed and getting ready for the big day ahead! One thing I really admire about the bride, Brianna, is how positive and joyful she is even when things can be stressful! […]

Dear Bride, I can’t believe you are getting Married today! It seems like just yesterday that we were hanging out at your house while eating your mom’s Delicious muffins… We had the most memorable, crazy times together that I will Never forget. Now that your wedding is here, I just can’t help but to tear […]

On this Saturday morning, the weather was working with us so wonderfully! I was so happy to see Avery & Ashley again – Last time I saw them was most likely 6 years ago at one of the last bonfires I had at my family’s house! See, I know Avery from all the way back […]

If you would have told me 4 years ago that I would move out of Illinois, I would have told you that you’re crazy. At 20 years old, I thought I had my whole life figured out. – I would graduate, go full-time with my photography business, live in the country in a sweet little […]

This March, while visiting my family & friends in Peoria, my mom and dad decided to add some furry little feet into the family! Now, if you know me you know that I LOVE dogs. Duke and Diesel will always be my number one, but I couldn’t help but to absolutely adore this fluffy little […]

So, I realize that this post is a bit late… oops! Better late than never though! Looking back at 2017, I realize that it has been my most eye-opening year of my life thus far. I photographed more weddings this year than I ever have so far! I moved over 500 miles, not once but […]

I hope you are enjoying the new look & feel of my very new website! I am so excited to be sharing this little space of the internet with you, and that you are here reading this! When I started this crazy dream in high school, I never would have imagined I’d be where I […]
