OKAY friends...let's DO THIS!!

Back by popular demand…
SPARKLE & SHINE mini-sessions!!

One weekend ONLY - ( because all that glitter absolutely destroys the studio )

1/6-1/7

————————————
Who’s looking for a super fun (and MESSY) way to celebrate the New Year, and get a headstart on Valentine’s Day cards/boxes??
Bring your kiddo(s) (or yourselves) to me for a super festive and GLITTERY photoshoot at the studio.
————————————
$175
2 setups (gray, white, glitter, and gold…as well as a gorgeous floral backdrop with colorful confetti!)
30 minutes
25 edited digital images (with print release)
In order to best contain the mess, I can only accommodate up to three kiddos per session.
————————————
I have a collection of fancy dresses and accessories in my client closet…but truly anything white, gray, black, cream, silver, or gold would look great. Or pretty much anything BLINGY.
Even jeans and a PLAIN white/gray/black shirt would look sharp with my planned sets. So don’t over-think it and just come to have fun!!
————————————
These sessions serve as a great way to showcase your kiddo’s personality and capture ALL those adorable and unique expressions.
But seriously though…who doesn’t love making a huge mess that SOMEBODY ELSE has to clean up??

A gigantic white wall (that can easily fit up to 35 people), as well as a Winter Tree Farm scene.

Our primary focus will be snapping a few full group poses. Then we'll do various breakdowns from there (for example: Grandmas and Grandpas with all their grandbabies, just the cousins, the "OG" crew, separate family units, etc...)

I just love the magic, joy, and peace that the Holiday season brings...especially the bringing together of those we love so dear.

2023 Classic Christmas Family sessions are just a few weeks away!!
📸🎄🕯️🎁🧣❄️🛷

Sunday 11/26 only

———————————————
Here's a look back at a few images from last year that make my heart smile. 🥰

The images above and below are examples of what’s in store for THIS YEAR!
I’m so excited I can hardly contain my excitement!!

These sessions will be taking place at my “Sycamore Farms” studio location. (Just North of 228th & Dodge)

We’ll shoot primarily in the 44,000 square foot Arena (so while a couple of these scenes create the perception of being outdoors, they’re massive! don’t worry, we’ll remain very much OUT of the wintery elements ❄️😉)

As you can see I have three brand new EXQUISITE setups, along with a couple more neutral offerings. Can't wait to see you and your families very soon!

There are still a handful of available spots...
snag yours today!! (booking link in comments)

Thanks in advance for supporting me and my small business. ❤️

These "EHS, ESHS, & ENHS" Seniors (of whom I had the pleasure of photographing this year) are down to ONE final hour of High School. 🎓

Their moms are not okay. 🥹❤️

05/11/2023

Pinch me…I feel like I’m DREAMING!!! 😍

I can’t even believe I have this absolutely AWESOME opportunity of calling Sycamore Farm my studio “home.” 😄🥹

In addition to all the natural beauty Sycamore has to offer, I’ll also be setting up several “scenes” in and around the arena, stables, and coffeehouse. Most of which will be rather “nuetral” and “simplistic” in tone.

I absolutely can not WAIT to welcome my clients here once everything is in place. ❤️🌟📸

PS - these iPhone pics really do NOT serve this place justice, but I think you get the jist. 🤪

PPS - my shooting calendar is LIVE…have you booked your family, kiddo, senior, or team for a session at Sycamore yet??

Thank you in advance for allowing me to photograph your special moments. 📸

Anyone who knows Alex, knows he’s a Jack-of-all-trades.
There’s not much this young man can’t do, won’t do, and/or hasn’t done. He’s the one wearing all-the-hats, behind all-the-scenes, making sure all-the-things are running smoothly!

I can only imagine how much his school, and this entire community of Elkhorn is going to MISS his presence when he goes off to college. 🤷‍♀️

But the time is almost near, that Alex must spread his wings and begin preparing for his OWN future.
This kid WILL move mountains.

Not only is Rebecca Baker bright, beautiful, brave, and brilliant, she also happens to be an impressive athlete, and has the HARDWARE to prove it.
(We loved smuggling all these trophies into my studio. 😄)
🏆🥇🏀🏐🎾
Wishing Rebecca the best of luck as she strives to add one last medal to her collection before graduation...@ the NE State TENNIS Championships!

The world is her oyster, and I can’t wait to see all the amazing things she sets out to achieve beyond high school.

So very proud of you Rebecca!!

If I was only able to choose one word to describe Dalton, I think it would have to be DETERMINED.
Give this kid a goal, and he IS going to crush it!
He is not even through his senior year, but is already well on his way to becoming a professional firefighter.
Not only is he taking college classes to earn his degree...He shows up to fire and rescue calls at all hours of the night, in an effort to help those in need.

This apple most certainly does NOT fall far from the tree, as he carries on a longtime legacy of serving our community. Dalton is faithfully following in the big footsteps of those laid before him.
So extremely proud of all he has done, and all he will continue to do.
Please join me in wishing my brave, loyal, humble, and kind nephew Dalton all the best as he counts down the days until graduation.

04/28/2023

I truthfully don't even know where to begin with this amazing young lady.
Aside from being adorable and smart, Lauren has such a beautiful heart, and is one of the most lovely individuals I know.

04/28/2023

Meet Connor Hunt.
Elkhorn High...Class of 2023!
QB1 🏈
Outfielder & Pitcher ⚾️
But most importantly, just an all-around good guy!

Join me in wishing this young man all the best as he continues his education and baseball career at Wayne State University in the Fall.
