Kylie & Evan | Winter Family Pictures | Rock Cut State Park

A wonderful winter excursion to Rock Cut. Check out these fun candid moments with Kylie and her family. And since I love dogs, I was excited that they brought their pup along for some photos, too!

Harshbarger Family | Snowy, Winter Woods Family Photos

Now, it's always hit or miss if we're going to have good snow before Christmas. However, this year, Jess was sure of wanting just that- snow photos! Well, this Thanksgiving, we lucked out with a layer of fresh snow and a 40 degree day shortly after. Perfect portrait opportunity! Take a look through these playful wintry photos in the woods.

Natalie and Matt | Rockford Arboretum and Downtown

Here's some photos from the first snow the season. It was fun catching up with Natalie and Matt since it's been so long since I covered their wedding! We met at a small park in Rockford before heading downtown for some fun urban photos. Enjoy!

Johnson Family Session

I had the honor of shooting Amber and Josh's wedding a year ago at the Prairie Street Brewhouse and we were able to get together this November for an awesome family session around downtown Rockford. I loved so many of these shots that I felt compelled to share. Here's some of my favorites!
