Every 1 year old should have the chance at a cake smash, and with Hailey Joy, it was more of a cake explosion! Mommy did such a great job making the cake 🙂 (I almost reached in for a bite…) Hailey didn’t waste any time, as we all laughed in the studio, watching the amazement in her …

Another beautiful family!
It was a beautiful day, but above 95 degrees outside, and you know, with little ones, that doesn’t always fly! Thankfully, we changed the session to right before sunset (and the kiddo’s bedtime) and I couldn’t be more thrilled! They were full of smiles, and Mr. Sun was lovin’ on us through most of the …
Chelsie: class of 2013
Maybe someday I’ll look older than a high schooler. I still get, “are you even old enough to drive?” Um yes, and I can almost reach the suckers at the bank, sir! No, but really- is it just me or are high school seniors absolute knock out’s these days? I mean, could Chelise be any …

Baby Brooklyn: 3 days new
Brooklyn was just as sweet as can be! Her Mom and Grandma were a great help, and very patient as we waited for this wee one to fall fast asleep. I’m glad we waited for a chance to capture these beautiful timeless images that she’ll love when mom brings out before her first prom to …

Newborn Safety!
We all love Photos of these little miracles, and we all love FACEBOOK and PINTREST, and let’s face it- social media in general… so I thought it was only appropriate to dedicate a blog post specifically to educate new parents as well as new photographers on the safety of newborn photography. Safety comes first, and …
In memory of a special daddy; a pictures worth..
“Hi Carrie, it’s Dayna, I know it’s cold outside, but let’s plan on trying the session anyways so we don’t have to wait till later in the summer” “Okay, we will just bundle up, thanks! See you soon…..” You would think in April, it would be somewhat warm, right? Not this April.. It was two …
Holiday Mini Session!
Justin and Lauren were the first people to contact me about my holiday mini sessions, and I am SO glad they did! Before our session came, Justin popped the question, and asked Lauren to spend the rest of her life with him, forever & always 🙂 So this was recently after they got engaged, and …
A Very Chilly Family Session!
When thinking what to write about this session, the first thing that came to my mind was, COLD! But they were all troopers! Chasing each other around, running, getting white tights filthy with mud, oh, but it was worth it mom! Thank goodness for Photoshop in times like those 😉 Thanks, Sprengler family, for being …
