Madie | Senior

It's crazy to think that another school year is rolling around! My husband, Owen, is a high school teacher and is headed back this week. Oh and we're also patiently waiting for our baby to make an appearance any day now! So life is about to get a little crazy to say the least. 

I'll be out for booking sessions for some time after baby, so it was a real treat to be able to sneak in a couple senior sessions this summer... including this beauty, Madie. We made our way through these flowery gardens and had a blast the whole time. Her smile is contagious and her kind heart shines through. Thanks for letting me document this time in your life, Madie!

Taylor & LaTora | Cancun Beach Sunset

Back in February we got away from the chilly temps in South Dakota and took a little vacay out to Cancun. Of course I had to sneak some camera time in on the beach during sunset one evening with Taylor & LaTora. You really can't beat a warm evening by the ocean, can you? 

Best of 2017 | South Dakota Photographer

As 2017 came to a close & 2018 quickly took charge, it was so fun to look back on all that has happened this past year. I was able to work with so many fun new clients and in doing so, fell in love with photography even more. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all of you who trusted me to help capture a season of your life this year! It was my absolute pleasure, and I couldn't be more excited or ready to take on another year. So with that, enjoy reminiscing with me on some of my favorite images from 2017. 

Kathy | Senior

Kathy. Such a sweet, easy going, fun soul to be around.
It's sincere when I say that this was one of my favorite sessions to date. Thanks for letting me document you, KP!

Lucas & Tessa | Camp Lakodia Wedding Photographer

A gorgeous outdoor wedding at one of their favorite places: Camp Lakodia. A place where they nurtured their knowledge of God and who he made them to be and where they spent time getting to know each other.  The love between these two is something special and I was so honored to capture their day. Congrats, Lucas + Tessa. 

Zach + Brittany | Palisades State Park Engagement Photographer

Hiking around Palisades State Park with these two was so much fun! Engagement sessions have always been one of my favorites & it was my absolute pleasure to work with these two. 

Kylie | Senior

A senior session with miss Kylie! She's sweet & lighthearted & SO photogenic. This 2017 grad is going places. 

Andrew & Julie | Engaged

Andrew & Julie couldn't be more perfect for each other. After a summer in San Diego with Julie & hearing all about this Andrew guy, it was pretty clear she was falling for him. It's been awesome to see how God worked in their relationship & I'm so thrilled that I get to help capture their love for each other on their wedding day.

With a new website comes new adventures and I'd say blogging is definitely one of them! I know I know, I've had this website for almost 3 months now, but it's still super new and exciting to me. I hope to use this as a place to further express creativity and showcase the amazing people that I get to photograph. I couldn't be more thrilled to kick this thing off with one of my newest friends, Melissa, who has been such an encouragement to me in my journey of photography.
