Kayser (pronounced Kay-sir) is from the Arabic word meaning “ruler”. Baraka (pronounced like our Kenyan American president plus an “ah” at the end) means “blessed” in Swahili. 1 Timothy 6:15 says God is the BLESSED and only RULER, the King of kings and Lord of lords. We pray our son’s name will be a testimony […]
I had the privilege and honor to capture the adoption of these sweet brothers to The Schwarz Family. These aren’t your typical adoption pictures because they weren’t done in a courtroom, they were done in their home over a zoom call. It was kind of perfect – becoming a family in their new home.

I absolutely love getting to see my client’s brand new babies again for Fresh 48 sessions a day or two after birth. It amazes me every time how much a day can change a baby! Maggie picked out the most adorable swaddles and headbands to use for Hannah’s Fresh 48 session. It was wonderful to […]
I had the wonderful privileged to document the birth story of Hannah Alice. It was an amazing and encouraging birth even though it didn’t go the way she had originally planned. Maggie, the mom and also a midwife herself, was gracious enough to share the birth story from her perspective. “This birth story starts a […]
*Uncensored real birth images ahead. Images were posted with permission. I heard the loud ding of my phone. I opened my eyes and saw by the light coming through the windows that it was early morning. My heart always skips a beat when I hear my phone go off if I’m on call for a […]
Sweet Kailey arrived into the world a week early surprising her parent’s Kristen and Jonathan. Kristen and I were besties in high school and it was a delight to watch her bloom in her new role as a mama. It was like she’d been doing it for years. I absolutely love capturing how smitten first […]
