Sunset + Beach = Magic | Spring Grove Photographer

Having 3 girls myself, I love getting to photograph boys. Their rough and tumble relationship that overflows with energy is so much fun to capture.

But I know, inside that boy energy, is a fierce love. And seeing them love on their momma melts my heart every time. And seeing her splash them in the face is pretty sweet too!

Also, this family was featured in my ‘what to wear’ guide. Isn’t her dress adorable?!?! Perfect for a beach shoot!

Just a reminder, if you have a beach shoot with me… don’t forget a towel and an extra set of clothes!

Indoor Studio Session | Spring Grove Photographer

 

Indoor sessions don’t have to be boring… they can still capture your family’s intimacy and emotion. All of Jessica’s sessions capture the fun, silly, and loving relationships in your family, and indoor studio sessions are no different.

Spring Grove Photography

Whether your family is cuddling on the bed or snuggling on the couch, we will make those real smiles and giggles last forever!

This was one of my favorite sessions last year with a family of boys who love to giggle and tickle. It was so much fun, and so easy! I think that every one of us had a great time during this shoot!

You don’t need to look at the camera and say ‘cheese’ for a perfect family portrait.

Sweet Summer Sunset Session | Spring Grove Photographer

 

My absolute favorite part of being a photographer is capturing a family’s personality. Their TRUE personality. So when I encounter a family whose love for each other is so authentic. So tangible. So FUN… well we have to have some fun!

Lake Geneva Photographer

It makes my photographer heart so happy when I don’t have to pose a family. When they don’t need to be prompted to interact and love on each other… even siblings!

Lake Geneva Photographer

This kind of love is an amazing testament to their incredible parents and the deep love and commitment they have to each other.

Lake Geneva Photographer

Even more important, the family that plays together stays together. I hip-hip-hooray for super adventurous families that are willing to run into the water at sunset… even if it means going home with wet underwear!

Lake Geneva Photographer

I promise that this amazing evening of glorious fun will be on their walls for years to come. And when they see these photos, they won’t just see a picture to look at, but will hear memories of our belly-aching laughter that will never stop ringing!

Sweet Millie M. | Lakewood Newborn Photography Session

 

When I am invited into a family’s home during the first few days of a new baby’s life, it feels like I get to peek behind the curtain at the ‘real’ going on. I get to witness first-hand the teamwork between mom and dad, the amazing support of the proud grandparents, and the every-little-moments between the day to day routine of caring for a new little life.

Lakewood Newborn Photographer

Getting to meet Miss Millie Ann was no different. Coming a little early and weighing a tiny 6lbs 18oz, and measuring 18.5”, she is pure perfection!

Lakewood Newborn Photographer

To see the love shining in her parents’ eyes reminded me of the first days after bringing my new baby home. That head-over-heels, delicious love that you have never felt before. Truly, a spectacular type of joy that you didn’t even know existed.

Lakewood Newborn Photographer

Even her 4 legged older siblings are overjoyed with the new little life in the house! What a pleasure and honor to capture your first days, sweet Millie. So many more memories to come…

Lakewood Newborn Photographer

 

Ah! Sweet mystery of life
At last I’ve found thee
Ah! I know at last the secret of it all!
My spirits are truly unruly
For I’m falling in love with someone
Some one girl
I’m falling in love with someone
Head awhirl!
(From “Thoroughly Modern Millie”)

Scarlett| 6 Month Milestone Session

 

There is not greater joy, than watching a baby grow and change. Embracing every new milestone and rejoicing in each new skill. What a gift to be able to capture these tiny (but mighty) steps for families!

Spring Grove Photographer

 

From grabbing their toes to gummy smiles to incredible sloppy kisses, they are all sweet signs of budding personalities.

Spring Grove Photographer

My favorite part is when mom tells me something about her babe that tugs at her heart, and then we get to capture it. For sweet Scarlett it was her newfound skill of giving mommy open-mouthed cheek kisses!

Spring Grove Photographer

Happy 6 months, sweet Scarlett!
