I just wanted to share this accordion album that I will be offering at my Down Home With Santa mini-sessions this year.
These are just the cutest albums. They are the perfect size for your purse and come with a plastic protective sleeve.
Here are a couple photos of the inside.
And a view of the back.
There is a minimum purchase of 3 identical albums. Just the right number for giving and still having one to keep!
I am so, so, so excited about this! Imagine this. No long lines at the mall where your child gets a max of two minutes with Santa before he/she is hurried off his lap so the next child in line can have a turn. Imagine 20 minutes just your children and Santa. One on one. Lifetime memories for them. Lifetime memories for you. That is what you get with my Down Home With Santa Mini Sessions.
I have a very limited number of sessions available so contact me soon to book your appointment.

You might remember Paul from his session back in December. His mom invited me back to their home for Paul 6-monthish session. Our first date was rained out (it has been a very wet spring), so we rescheduled for a couple weeks later. What a great decision that was because we ended up having the perfect weather on our second attempt. Warm and sunny - just perfect for bare feet!
We started out with a few Easter poses.
Hello there!
And then we changed into something blue.
We also brought his rocking chair out into the front yard. This is his serious look.
And this is just pure sweetness.
And for the first time ever, I think he sat in the grass. I just love those little bare feet.
Such a sweet, sweet boy about to celebrate his first Easter
Corbin is no stranger to my website. He has become one of my best little buddies. It is obvious that Corbin loves his mommy very much. I love that.
He wore his cowboy hat and boots which were perfect for photos at the barn.
And if he hasn't stolen your heart already...
The letters say it all.
I hope Santa was good to you this year, Corbin!
Want to see some serious cuteness? Look no further.
I do love me some Cooper!
I tried to post the rest of my Christmas mini-sessions before Christmas but had some computer/internet issues that prevented me from it. Thankfully, everything seems to be fixed now, so I am playing a bit of catchup. It's still the season until New Year's isn't it? We'll say it is!
One word comes to mind when I think of this family - FUN! We had never met before, but it felt like we were old friends from the get-go. Love that!
Daniel was such a little gentleman.
And Miss Stella was just precious.
She did have a short little moment, but it made for the cutest shot!
Thanks for a fun time!!
Once again this year I had Christmas mini-sessions at the barn. I had some clients who had been here once or even twice, so I wanted it to look a little different. I started pulling together things from around the house and ended up with a backdrop I loved.
Sawyer, Kennedy and Jacob were my first appointment on this freezing morning. Their mom could not have chosen more prefect outfits for them. They were just perfect with the all the antique props I had put together!
They were great and were such great sports considering how cold it was!
Aren't the boys handsome?!
I think they could be models for a Children's Place ad!
Mom looked pretty awesome, too!
Thanks guys for coming out and braving the cold. As always it was a treat to see you!
Another one of my favorite families. I know we are going to have fun when we get together!
Kim and Scott. They celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary this year!
And it is obvious they are doing a wonderful job raising their boys. Matthew and Nathan are such nice young men.
I just love photographing this family!
Oh how I love this family! They are no strangers to my website. You've seen them before. Most recently in the library.
You might remember Miss Karsyn from her tea party in the woods. She has grown so much since then!
Mr. Kadin. Such a sweetheart.
These next two just make me smile.
Especially this one.
I know Christmas morning is going to be exciting at their house this year!
Time to share another urban Christmas mini-session. Meet the beautiful Caroline and Gracie.
I would love to spend more time shooting these sisters!
Such beautiful girls! Sweet, too!
I spent this morning with the most precious 4-month-old ever.
I had such a nice visit with Paul and his mommy in their beautiful home.
I can't wait to share more from our session. It was so nice to get my baby fix. :-)
I love this family. They have become great friends of mine. They have come to the barn the past two years for mini-sessions so I was glad that we were able to do something a little different this year.
I especially love these boys. Andrew and Alex.
I've shared these next two before, but since they are favorites of mine I decided to share them again.
Their "cool dude" shoes as my Stewart would say.
Stay tuned for more mini-sessions. I'm trying to do better on updating the website if you've noticed. ;-)
I'm taking a break for just a few minutes from designing Christmas cards to share some of the fun families from my urban mini-sessions. We had perfect weather for it. It was a gorgeous, warm afternoon.
My first session of the afternoon was with the Franks family. Last year they came to the barn for Christmas mini-sessions, so it was fun to do something different this year.
I just love my little buddy, Will. He's such a sweetheart.
You can tell he adores his big sister, Emma.
More urban minis coming soon!
Sunday afternoon I had a session scheduled at the barn and since I was going to be there anyway, I thought it would be a good time to have a little Christmas shoot with our kiddos. I don’t seem to ever take photos of them anymore, so I thought it would be a good idea to actually schedule a shoot. We We had been there for just a few minutes when guess who arrived?!
Next it was Molly’s turn. Her list was a little longer! ;-)
My friend Chris who is also a photographer always has Santa sessions at his house and we go there to visit Santa. With building a new house, Chris decided things were just too hectic this year and didn’t have Santa sessions. We didn’t know how or when we were going to get to see him. I guess Santa knew of our dilemma because he came to see us. Before he left he told the kids that Jasper our elf would soon be arriving to watch them until Christmas. Stewart promised to leave some cookies and milk for Santa and apples and carrots for his reindeer.
And just a little advanced notice... I do plan to have Santa sessions next year at the barn!
Just a little sneak peek of urban Christmas mini-sessions. Stewart says these are the shoes cool dudes wear.
These two little dudes are pretty cool if you ask me.
I will be sharing their session along with all the others from my day soon. Busy editing and creating right now!
Lots of you have already asked, and the answer is yes! I will be having Christmas Card Mini-session again this year! I will be having two different days of mini-sessions, but I will have a very limited number of slots. This is all I can fit in, so don't wait to schedule.
This year I am excited to be offering urban mini-sessions!

Have I mentioned lately how much I love my job? I mean I get to hangout with sweethearts like Cole on a regular basis!
2-year-olds can be challenging to photograph. They can also be extra, extra fun to photograph!
And they are also oh so precious...
So happy to have Cole as my new friend. :-)
You probably recognize Jasmine and Caden. They are not new to my blog. You might remember their Christmas session. They are two of my favorite kiddos.
I think Caden was a little disappointed when he found out that they weren't going to the barn this time.
I think I made it up to him though!
And one last one of Miss Jasmine. She is such a sweetheart.
More Easter sessions to come!
The weather has not been my friend lately. I had a full day of Easter sessions scheduled for last Saturday, but it was a yucky, rainy day just like every other day for that week. So I rescheduled everyone I could for this Saturday (looks like it's going to be a gorgeous day), but there were a few that weren't going to be able to make it this Saturday. We rescheduled for this past Tuesday afternoon. It wasn't the nicest of spring days. It was a little on the cool side, but my kiddos were awesome and never once complained of being cold.
I started the afternoon with Miss Emma. Isn't she precious?!
And I do still have one opening at 2:00 tomorrow if anyone is interested.
Below is the available appointment times for my Easter Mini-sessions.
