Remember that I’ll be taking on much, much less next year with not much wiggle room. I over-did myself again this year & just cannot emotionally/mentally do that to myself or my kids again. 🙏🏻

Upcoming changes to be aware of:
*my policies for reschedules have been updated. First reschedule will be free, second will have a $50 charge & anything more than two will result in a canceled session. Of course, the weather will not affect this policy - if it’s storming out we won’t do the session, etc.

*remaining balances will also now be due the Monday prior to any scheduled session. For example: if you had a session scheduled today, your remaining balance would have been due Monday November 18!

*my packages have also changed slightly. You can check out the updates here:

That’s all for now! I just wanted to cover a few things before my sale is live tonight!

I can’t wait to see who snags one!
SEE YOU AT 6!!!!!! 🥰

Absolute over share of this amazing family that I’ve got to capture during BOTH of this sweet mama’s pregnancies 🥹 this session was so dang special to me, but also to this family because we got to photograph them right on the comfort of their own land!

More farm sessions please 🙏🏻

PS - I know I’ve been awful at posting the past few months. I’m just so focused on trying to dig myself out of the editing hole I’ve fallen deep into!

Another PS - set your reminders that Black Friday Gift Certificate sales will start November 25! 💛🧡🤎

HEY PHOTOGRAPHERS! Are you looking for a space to do indoor Christmas minis!? Me and Lyza Maye Photography are sub-renting out our studios for Christmas minis for the rest of November! 📸

The 2 spaces are already set up & decorated for Christmas minis - all you literally have to do is book your clients & go have a good time creating memories!

Our spaces are located in downtown Bismarck!

The cost is $50.00/hour or $300.00 for a full 8 hour day! Our spaces both have a faux window walls - filled with lights behind sheer curtains, which gives you the option to photograph at any time of the day (yes, even if it’s dark outside) and still get a result as if you were photographing with natural light!

If you’re interested in either the Light & Neutral Space or the Dark & Moody Space, reach out to us via email at:

📸 Black Friday Gift Certificate Info 📸
Get ready to mark those calendars!!!

Hi friends,
I’ve been so absent on social media lately. Just trying to get through this busy season while keeping my sanity in tact (the one little strand of it that’s left anyway 😜)

Anyway, I’m excited to announce some information about my annual Black Friday Gift Certificate Sales!

• Gift Certificates for Mini, Full & Newborn Packages will be 20% off.
• The sale will be available early on Friday November 22nd to my VIP members/past clients. If you’ve had a session with me, be sure you’re in the Facebook group! Your welcome email will have the link to join!
• The sale will go out to the public on Monday November 25 and go until 7pm CST on cyber Monday (December 2) or until the 10 gift certificates are sold!
• There will only be 10 Gift Certificates available to purchase at 20% off - these sell out every year so grab one while you can!

These make for the perfect gift, or just to ensure that your family gets in on my 2025 calendar! Gift certificate holders get FIRST pick at sessions when each season opens!

*all gift certificate sales are final!!!

That’s all I have for now! Enjoy these images of this GORGEOUS family full of boys 🥰☀️

🍂 happy first day of F A L L 🍂

I’ve posted this before & I’ll post it again and again - fall means busy season is in full swing! Please be gentle with your photographers, as this is the time of year that a lot of us overbook ourselves so that we can make sure our clients get that gorgeous fall foliage that is highly requested!

Speaking for myself: between my other job, my kids’ sports & driving my son to/from work then having sessions to photograph multiple times per week, I am at my max turn around time right now. My turn around time is 40 business days *after* telling me you’re done choosing your faves from your soft-proof galleries. This is explained on my website, before you submit a booking submission, in my contract, in my soft-proof emails, and I try to post about this often just to make sure I’m overly communicating my turn around time!

Thank you beyond words to those clients that have randomly texted me “take your time!”, that send me sweet little coffee e-gift cards & that simply just check in on me. Clients that do that truly show me how much they value my time & work, and that speaks volumes to me! I appreciate those of you who do that more than I can explain! 💛

Have a lovely week everybody and please, if you know a photographer, just send them some love this week! Nothing photo related, but just genuinely check in on them. Those messages mean everything! 🥲

PS - please enjoy many photos of this beautiful family’s gallery I just sent off! I couldn’t choose just a few, I had too many faves!

15/09/2024

Just here to announce that there are 3️⃣ thirty minute sessions that opened up & they are all that’s left on my outdoor session calendar for 2024!

If you’d like to get into the studio and capture some memories, please feel free to *email* me to find dates & times! I do not check my Facebook messages often and it’s much easier for me to keep all communication in one place as much as possible. If you’ve reached out on any social media to inquire, please know I may not see your message!

Now for the most important part of this post - would you just take a minute to look at this precious family 🥹 I have photographed them since their first baby was just in mama’s tummy and what a true blessing it is to watch their family grow.

Sometimes this job, like any, can be really stressful but to see families returning and to capture their changes through the years, is the biggest/best gift of all 🥲💛

It was too hard to narrow these down. So enjoy all of these images of my beautiful friend Morgan, along with her stunning family 🥹

I can’t believe how fast this summer has flown by & all of the things that have happened in the last few months alone. Life has been absolute chaos but we are rolling through it 💛

Extra thank you to all of my clients who have been beyond patient while awaiting their galleries the last few weeks! I promise I’m chipping away at my editing list one after another!

Anyway, now I’m rambling. Happy almost Friday!

This was the first wedding I have accepted as a main shooter in over almost 1.5 years 😱 and it was 1000% the best decision to not only take a little time off, but to have THIS amazing couple as the first wedding “back in the game” - I say “back in the game” loosely lol! I have decided I will be taking on weddings again BUT only 2-3 per year max and the ones I take on, will be spread out between months!

Steven & Kylee are such a beautiful couple whose love for each other is entirely evident and true. The moment we sat down for our consultation, I felt their genuine connection. The way they explained their wedding day was probably every photographer’s dream: A small intimate wedding filled with the love & support from the people most important to them, the couple got ready together (so cute btw 🥹) and they really wanted a photographer who would give them guidance while still having creative freedom.

With that information alone, I was convinced that God brought us together for a purpose and boy am I glad He did! Their wedding was exactly all they had talked about & more. It was truly an honor to be a part of and even more, capture the memories of the day.

Congratulations Mr & Mrs. Dettling! Here’s to a life time of joy, love, laughter, & FUN! 🥂💕
