Bridals | Amber

Amber & I went to the same church when we were little girls... I used to pass dresses to her when I'd out grown them & our brothers were friends. A few years ago, she & her family came back to that church. When she came back, she wasn't the cute little girl anymore, but a beautiful, young lady! Before she & Jacob (her husband now!) started dating, I had a hunch they would end up together at some point! Sarah & I were happy to do her bridal session back in April & now that she's a married lady, I can share these with y'all!! :)

Portraits | Lauren

Lauren's pretty quiet at first, but once you get to know her, there's no end to the fun & laughter! :) We love this session that turned into a girls night hanging out downtown, playing in the street, nervously jumping on the train tracks for a quick picture, & laughing a lot! Lauren, we hope you have a great summer & can't wait to have you back in the fall! :)

"Life is better when you're laughing"

Disclaimer: As a general rule, I don't photograph on railroad tracks, but we had permission from someone working at the train station to go out on the platform & tracks for a few photos.

Maternity | David, Sarah, & William

Sometimes

the littlest things

take up the most room

in your heart

-Winnie the Pooh-

As the glowing sunlight peeked through the trees on their property, where their house is being built, we documented the fact that a brand new, tiny, little, person will be making an appearance soon.  David & Sarah.  Two years married.  And now, a precious little boy being protected in Sarah's belly.  After waiting & trusting God, little William is an extra special gift!  To see more of David & Sarah, you can check out their wedding & 1st anniversary posts!

"The moment a child is there, the mother is also born. She never existed before.  The woman existed, but the mother, never.  A mother is something absolutely new."

William, be prepared for lots of kisses, loving, & spoiling!  We're all so excited to meet you!

Love, Aunt Anna
