In late July, the adorable Utz family called me to photograph “Papa Utz’s” 80th Birthday Celebration at the new Notre Dame Duncan Center overlooking the Notre Dame Football field. 8 precious cousins and countless friends and family members rolled in the door to wish Mr. Utz a happy birthday and a beautiful celebration it was. […]
Earlier this month, I had the pleasure of photographing a private mass and baptism for a pretty incredible Notre Dame family. Four babies joined the Catholic Church at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart on campus while over ninety people, including a ton of precious cousins, witnessed. Each family brought a different priest which made […]
A couple of weeks ago, I had the opportunity to photograph nearly an entire grade of First Communicants at Christ the King Catholic School. It was such a blast getting to know the kiddos, the families and most importantly, seeing how excited they were about their big day. I got to hear so many amazing […]
The weather in South Bend has been something else over the past week or so, but when we finally got a pretty night, for Brady and Alexa’s formal First Communion portraits, we hopped on it. Although cold, they were PRECIOUS and you would’ve never known we had the shivers! This duo is so full of […]
This right here (above) is why I believe in photography at life’s most important events. Baby’s firsts. Baptisms. Communions. Milestone birthdays. This is exactly why I chose to offer “Life Event” sessions. When Jessica called me to snap pics on Communion party day, I was thrilled. I was happy to help capture the parts of their […]
Last weekend was such a special weekend for so many sweet Second Grade kids. First Communion is such a big day in the Catholic Church! I had the pleasure of spending Saturday afternoon with Chloe for her Communion portraits and had so much fun. It was a complete joy being with you, Chloe! God Bless […]
A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of standing as God Mother for my nephew, Harrison’s Baptism into the Catholic Church. Honorably, this is my third time becomming a God Mother. So special. This time I toted my camera along and was able to capture the cermony and the party afterwards. What a fun […]
Church this morning was interesting. Between tired yawns, tears of exhaustion and Ariel (or Belle) being launched over the pew in front of us a time or two, we said thanks. Thanks for one amazing year with this ball of fire. We found answers to our questions and answers to our prayers. It’s been a huge […]
Kids sports are SO MUCH FUN to shoot. It’s impossible to leave without capturing the amount of energy that they put into it. I got the huge pleasure of hanging out in the dugout with Ben the other night at his fall baseball game and by fall, I mean 81 and full sun, but I’m not complaining. (really!) […]
