BRENNAN FAMILY • IOWA CITY FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER • LAKE MACBRIDE
Families dancing in the sun, doing their thing, maybe a little bit of chaos. I LOVE THAT. An outdoor family session out by the lake – sometimes Iowa can be really beautiful, but a sweet family and a sunset – perfection. The Brennan family and I met way back last year for their really super hot extended family session – like HOT as in we were melting, but they’re a pretty fire family too! I absolutely love when families come back year after year (I’ve only been doing this a few years, but stiiiilll.) A perfect first day of fall session – we met at Lake Macbride and the five-o errr quint family and I just hung out and played. I have one child, but I’d like to think that I know generally how kids will behave during sessions. I will tell you, 8/10 they’re not going to just sit and smile and do what you say. The stakes are high, folks. Come ready to play and cuddle and DO – we gotta figure out what sweet & unique ways your family smiles together. Come as you are and I will capture that.

Terhune Family • Iowa Family Photographer
Giggling little girls, weeping willows, and two parents in love – all the makins for a perfect night. in APRIL. I got a little bit behind on blogging (again. such is life), but I have made some 2019 half year goals and some new strategies to share MORE photos and some oldies. This session feels like years ago. It was one of those first new nights of spring where it was just starting to get a little bit more warmer outside. You know, the perfect weather that we don’t get near enough of here in Iowa. Now it’s almost unbearably hot and I’m waiting for this weather again! I so so enjoy working with this family. I first photographed them when Brooke, their youngest, was just a little one barely sitting up. My favorite thing about photographing Leah & Brooke is how different they are from each other. Leah comes forth with confidence and joyous energy and is the life of the party, while younger sister is a little bit harder to open up – but when she does – just the most contagious little laugh. Enjoy some of my favorites from their session!

Chappell Family • Iowa Family Photographer
THIS is exactly the type of family session that I am living for. You’ll see why once you scroll down ;) But a family that can play and just pretend that some weird lady isn’t in their face with a camera – pinch me. I would like to humble brag and go on about how naturally gifted I am at making people feel comfortable, but it also takes a little bit of chill & the willingness to let loose a little bit. You’ll want those moments in your family session – Just give in and have a little bit of fun ;)
ANYWAY. The Chappell family and I go pretty far back, and it’s one of those funny situations where “we met online and it’s hard to remember who friended who, but we’ve always just REALLY clicked and vibed really well” type things. maybe you have it. As an introvert, I’ve found that social media and the ability to break the ice online has helped me form some really great friendships. Momma Ren is one of those. This session was the first time I *finally* got to meet her and her two boys for the first time, and I surely hope it won’t be the last. MAYBE, just maybe… keep on the look out for some future puppet shots. If you’re a lover of the arts & pure creativity, check out her husband Seth’s business – Foam Foolery! But in the mean time, enjoy this purely joyous family that I love a whole lot!
