Capturing the Truth in Every Moment | Cincinnati Lifestyle Photographer
When a childhood friend (that you haven’t seen in a few decades) has a baby and contacts you for a session it’s going to be great… I promise. Can we just talk about how wonderful they are? Brett came out to my car with an umbrella to help me with my gear, that’s NEVER happened! Madison is probably the sweetest human I’ve ever met. This adorable little lady has got some awesome parents who totally adore her. Thanks for inviting me to your lovely home to photograph your beautiful Miss Blayke.
Wedding number one for 2017 and it was perfect!!! A morning wedding that involves coffee + (more importantly) doughnuts? Count me in!! I tend to get a little teary eyed at most weddings, and this one did not disappoint. BOTH of the dad speeches had me holding back some real tears. Days when the Gospel is preached, breakfast is shared, and love just exudes from every single person involved… these are my favorite kind of days. Thank you for letting me be a part of your day, I love your love for each other and for Jesus.
When a fellow photographer contacts you to shoot their family it is always a privilege. Kristin found me through google and google hates me. I’m so incredibly honored that she scoured the internet and then trusted me with her adorable little family. It was so great to meet all three of you, Ella is an absolute doll baby! Ps. I might have to buy that blue floral shirt!!

To remember us as we were, comfortable and cuddly. Lifestyle sessions are a great way to capture your beautiful new family together.
Miss Mila is an absolute doll baby. Can we just talk about her squishy cheeks and her amazing hair?! GAHHHH I’m in love. Usually, I have the hardest time refraining from kissing newborn cheeks. It’s just a natural reaction for me. Thankfully, Sergio and Leah are good friends so I got to smooch those cheeks without restraint. Thanks for letting me cuddle your sweet girl.

I get asked all the time from my wonderful clients how they should dress. So, I decided to put together this little guide along with some examples that will hopefully help ease your stress about the details of your upcoming session. Feel free to e-mail me if you still have questions or want to send along outfit options for my opinion.
Avoid: Matching. The whole white shirt and khakis thing is so 1994.
Instead: Try coordinating! Pick a few colors or even a whole pallet of coordinating colors and fill in the rest with neutrals. Think Jewel tones or spring colors!
Avoid: Big clothing, especially for kids. Our tendency, as mothers, it to buy clothing a little big so it will fit longer.
Instead: Buy your kiddos clothes even a little smaller than you normally would so they don’t look baggy in your photographs.
Avoid: Lots of black or white. And neon. Just say no to neon!!
Instead: Try something a little less extreme. Cream or navy are great options! Even better, add in a pop of color.
Avoid: Small patterns, especially pinstripes. They end up making your shirt look almost wavy.
Instead: Try plaids, florals, or animal prints.
Avoid: Solid, plain outfits.
Instead: Add layers and texture. Corduroy, flannel, lace, cable knit, and denim are fabulous examples of texture!
Avoid: Panicking about outfit choices!!!
Instead: Let one person (AKA the outfit picker, herself) find something she feels beautiful in and then chose the other outfits from there.
