• Lillian’s Big Girl Bedroom

    Since we moved into this house in 2019, I’ve had big dreams for her big girl bedroom. Pink was an obvious choice while she’s still so young, but I went with a much warmer pink than I did in her nursery, and I DID let her choose from the paint swatched I brought home. (*It’s

  • Maternity | Family & Flower Crowns

    Maternity with the Family …and flower crowns, of course! This was it. This was the Pinterest inspired maternity shoot I’d been dreaming about ever since my very first positive pregnancy test.

  • Mom Life | Mother-Daughter Lifestyle Session

    This Summer was different for everyone, but especially different for me being pregnant and preparing for our second child.

  • Maternity | In-Home Session

    Lauri Baker Organic Imagery In-home Maternity Session A few weeks back, when I was 26 weeks, a local photographer, Lauri Baker, came over to do a private, in-home maternity session.

  • Spring Style | Floral Dress at the Domes

    Nothing says Spring like a flowy floral dress. Okay, maybe tulips and budding leaves and birds chirping…. But until then, we’ll prep for Spring style and visit the Domes, Milwaukee’s giant Horticulture conservatory. Lillian also loves visiting the domes and she goes almost everywhere with me. I also wanted to take this opportunity to get
