Who doesn’t love babies!? We’ve had the pleasure of photographing more than a few adorable children this year. From newborns to 1 year old, photographing these special times in your child’s life is an amazing thing. These are such precious moments that can last forever, regardless of how fast your baby grows! Take a look at some of our most recent baby photos and enjoy the lasting memories!

The holiday rush is coming up quick, so it is best to get yourself scheduled now to save time and hassle! We are booking up very quickly so it is never too soon to get in touch to ensure you get the date and time you want. We are now booking for October and November!

Meet Hali, a wonderful young woman who is a true pleasure to be around.  She’s one of those people that anyone would be glad to know. We sure are! She enjoys the outdoors, particularly playing soccer, and has a genuine kindness. It has been an absolute thrill to photograph her and she definitely has a bright future ahead!

Holy Macaroni have we been busy! What a great year it has been so far and we are looking forward to it continuing!

We were fortunate enough to have the opportunity to get to know Jennifer and Matt. What a great couple they are too! Whenever they are around you are sure to laugh. Matt is very charismatic and a seasoned Arborist and Jennifer is a delight to be around and has a love for the arts. Together, they are following their dreams by “Taking Recreation to New Heights.” In 2010 they founded US Tree Adventures with the intent to bring back a piece of childhood magic to everyone – climbing trees. Of course, once we knew this, it seemed natural to do their shoot in a forest!
