Jambaro - {Maternity Session}

Jambaro - {Maternity Session}

Ahhhh. Maternity Sessions. It's been a while since I've shot in Polcenigo and I forgot how magical it can be. The castle ruins are amazing for some artsy shots, and of course the views don't disappoint. Everything about this session was perfect. Becky is glowing, her dress was amazing, and the love her and her husband have for each other is evident. I'm so excited for them to welcome their sweet baby in a few weeks!! #Maternity #MaternityPhotographer #MaternitySession #L

Zach & Jenna - {Couple's Session}

Last year (almost exactly a year ago) these two answered a model call and I photographed them in Manage. This year Jenna messaged me wanting one last session (they are moving soon) and I was so excited! Jenna and Zach are two of the most genuine people I've ever met. They are so fun together and super easy to photograph. They are silly and playful and just SO in love! We had an amazing session and even though the sun disappeared right at the beginning (thank you mountain

Sergio & Sarah - {Engagement Session}

I loved getting to know these two during our session and hearing about their story! They got engaged at the famous Trevi Fountain in Rome! How romantic is that?! I'm so excited for them. Their love for one another was so apparent and I can't wait to see where this new season of life takes them! #Love #Engagement #EngagementPhotography #EngagementSession #ItalianEngagementSession #Coupleamp39sPhotography #Photography #Coupleamp39sSession

Pittman - {Family Session}

Pittman - {Family Session}

I loved shooting this little family in the beautiful town of Sacile! They've lived here for the past few years and are at the end of their tour here in Italy. It was so special being able to capture them in their town, the town where they brought their first baby home to, where they walked and got gelato and where they made some beautiful memories! As a military family, we have "homes" all over, and it's an honor to have been able to give them a little something to remember

Miles - {Lifestyle Newborn Session}

This family couldn't be more picture perfect! When I shot their Maternity session I loved how fun these two were! We laughed a lot during our session and I knew their Newborn session would be filled with the same amount of joy! It was eventful with a blow out and dad getting peed on, hahaha but we had a blast and Miles is just the sweetest thing! I also got to meet Hannah's mom who was able to be here in Italy for the birth of her grandson! It's so special to include grandp

Jackson Wayne - {Lifestyle Newborn}

Another sweet newborn session just wrapped up! I'm so happy I got to meet these 3! I loved the fact that even though they just moved into their house, they knew it was important to capture these moments with their sweet newborn. Some people think they can't have sessions done in their home because they aren't pretty enough, they don't look like a room in a magazine. I'm telling you right now, do not let that stop you from getting Lifestyle Photos done!!!!! PLEASE! I've been

Griffith - {Maternity Session}

We've had some pretty rainy days here in Italy but we got lucky the night of Taylor and Jared's maternity session! We had the most magical light that made my photographer heart SO happy! They are a gorgeous couple and their little girl is already so loved. I loved getting to know them and I can't wait for them to welcome their sweet baby into this world! #Maternity #MaternityPhotographer #MaternitySession #MaternityPhotography #SummerMaternity #Motherhood #Fatherhood #BabyB

Harr - {Lifestyle Newborn}

Harr - {Lifestyle Newborn}

This was my third session working with the Harr family and I just love them! They are incredibly sweet and they have finally welcomed their 2nd baby into the world! It was a surprise gender (which I love!) and they were blessed with a little boy! I could tell right away that Emma was an amazing big sister. She gave her little brother all of the kisses and snuggles she could! While he nursed, she showed me her pretty flowers and I got some shots of her playing with her gr

Cline - {Fresh 48}

My love for Fresh 48's is real you guys! Ugh! I hadn't done one in a while and when Jessica said she wanted a session at the hospital I was beyond excited! Dexter is her and her husbands first baby and they wanted to make sure these moments were captured because Jessica said she knew when they got home time would fly by. It made me so happy that she truly understood the importance of these sessions! #Fresh48Session #Newborn #NaturalLight #NaturalLightPhotography #NewbornBab

Jett - {Lifestyle Newborn Session}

Jett - {Lifestyle Newborn Session}

Lifestyle Newborn sessions are so so special! Capturing a family with their new addition in their own space, with their own personal touches just makes me so happy. This session was in the dreamiest Italian house complete with AMAZING natural light and a rooftop villa! Viola's daddy even pulled out his guitar and played (which they told me is a daily occurrence) while she nursed. It was beautiful and relaxing, and when Viola was done nursing she just stared at her daddy pl

Casado - {Maternity Session}

Casado - {Maternity Session}

Becoming parents is one of the most amazing experiences a couple will ever go through and I absolutely LOVE capturing the excitement between first time expecting parents. Just listening to this couple talk about their little girl warmed my heart. When I was going through my editing process and looking through all of their images, I couldn't help but smile. Their daughter is one lucky girl to be entering this world surrounded by so much love. #Maternity #MaternitySession #M

Edyn is One! - {Cake Smash Session}

I'm FINALLY getting this post up! I feel like a horrible mom, but it's done, right? Haha We did Edyn's cake smash exactly 1 month after her Birthday, so really in these images she is 13 months old. Que the mom guilt. I didn't order things in time for her birthday, I didn't have a studio to use and I just wasn't prepared! I felt terrible about it but I decided that it really was better late than never. I'm so so so glad I decided to do them. I just can't believe that this l

Kennedy Grae - {Birth Story Session}

Kennedy Grey 7lbs. 8 oz. 19.8 Inches Born at 2:53pm On December 11th I got THE text! This first time momma was 38 weeks pregnant when she started labor! I seriously have a track record with my clients (especially with first babies) that go early! It's crazy because most first time moms do not go early, they go late haha I always joke with people that if they don't want to have to wait the full 40 weeks, just book me hahaha Anyways, Haylie texted me saying that her contracti

Nate & Melissa - {Couple's Session}

Melissa was one of the first people that I met when we moved to Italy and it has been such a blessing getting to know her! Her and her husband were so fun to work with and they are just such a beautiful couple! One cool thing about Melissa is very passionate about essential oils and teaching people how to use them and why they are so amazing! If you follow her on instagram @_essential.living_ she gives all sorts of tips on how to substitute harsh chemicals for essential oi

First trip to Venice! - {Travel}

First trip to Venice! - {Travel}

A few weekends ago we decided to finally go to Venice! It's kind of one of those places that you end up going to a lot when you get stationed here because it's so close and it's always where you take visitors! Plus, it's Venice, I mean how could you not go there?! We figured that for the first time, and because we were with the kids, we would head into the city with no plan. This is way out of my character. I like to have a set schedule for everything, but honestly, doing

Jeremy & Emily - {Couple's Session}

These two rocked their session, from their outfit choices to their obvious chemistry! As we hiked up to the Castello de Managio, I loved hearing about how these two met, their story and the things their future holds. It turns out that Emily was actually in Alaska before coming to Italy this past spring! We we're at different bases, but it's always fun connecting with other military members who have been in the same locations as you. It's a small world! #Couple #Photography

Ridley Knox - {Fresh 48 Session}

Ridley Knox Born September 28th, 2017 24 Hours Old I was super excited to kick off my time in Italy with a Fresh 48 session and oh my goodness it was the sweetest! I hadn't shot a session since May and I was itching to get back to photographing sweet babies! The Martin family was incredibly sweet, especially Ridley's big brother! He taught me all of the names of the trains from Thomas the Tank Engine and we even got to play a little bit while Mom was nursing! I love bonding

Edyn Grace - {10 Months Old}

Well, we're in the double digits! This girl has finally started sleeping better, praise the Lord! Haha She's very dramatic and LOVES to sing with her sister! It is adorable. She's started waving and clapping and I'm pretty sure she can say hi! She's VERY close to walking, she can stand herself up without any assistance from furniture and walks with the walker, so I know it's soon (and then I'm really in trouble)! Happy 10 Months little one <3 #TenMonths #Baby #WatchMeGrow

Driving the Alaska Highway - {Our Move: Alaska to Italy}

Driving the Alaska Highway - {Our Move: Alaska to Italy}

Total Miles: 5,234 Day 1: Eielson AFB to Haines Junction Odometer: 87933 Miles Driven: 479 So on June 28th, 2017 we left our home for the past 3 years and 7 months! We woke up at 4:15am and left at 5:45am. Within the first 40 minutes Leighlyn got carsick and I remember thinking “what in the world did we get ourselves into?!” She had never gotten carsick before so it was definitely not expected! As I’m writing this we’re on day 4 and it hasn’t happened again. At around 7am w

Edyn Grace - {8 Months Old}

This little lady is 8 months old! She's got quite the temper, is starting to stand up and is in love with mommy! We predict that she's going to be a handful when she starts walking! Haha She's really been a trooper through this move and we love her so much! #Baby #8MonthsOld #BabyGirl #LifestylePhotography #Photography #MomPhotographer #Canon #NaturalPhotography
