Joel, Emma and baby Viv currently call Taiwan home but while visiting family in the U.S. they squeezed in some time for family photos with me at Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky! Even at a few months old Viv is already full of personality and kept us all laughing with her giggles and scowls and looks of judgement. I hope you enjoy some of my favorites! <3

Karrie + Xavier shared their crew of kiddos with me for another year as their youngest, Kieran, just turned ONE! We threw tinsle like snow, taught Kieran how to drink Fanta and they let me spin them around like superheroes. It was so fun to spend a morning with them at the family business Blue Stallion Brewing Company. I hope you enjoy this goofy sibling photoshoot.

Peter and Dominique loaded up the family, including the family dog Rollo and Peter’s parents, to enjoy an afternoon running through the corn stalks, watching Rollo deal with Noah’s loving but aggressive hugs and seeing Ron befriend the local camel at Eckert-Boyd Orchard in Versailles, Kentucky. There were also apple cider donuts- but they were so delicious they went unphotographed. :) Join us for their fun afternoon that has pictures to prove it. :)

Anyone who’s ever met the McCollums’ will tell you that this crew is filled to the brim with personality. Cooper is always quoting movies and picked up learning the guitar, Colleen is daydreaming about her future college in the Northeast and dad is always ready for a good day at Keeneland. Join us in two of their favorite places- the University of Kentucky Arboretum and UK Kroger Field. Enjoy!

Anyone who knows this family knows how much they are loved and love on others. We spent a chilly evening at Keeneland playing (and mostly watching Finnley chase Tatym around) so that this family could love on each other. Join us for all the giggles and chaos!

Lacey and her son Cole joined me for a late afternoon portrait session. The light filling the forest was so gorgeous, giving their session a magical golden glow. Join us under the trees to see the magic for yourself! <3

Kalen, Billy and their curious crew (Forrest, Beckett and Everly) met me in Gratz Park for some of their fist professional family photos together. There were lady bug searches (the kids even named one after me- SO sweet!), human pile ups, races, chasing and ring-a-round-the-rosey. To be honest most of our two hour session was complete chaos and I absolutely LOVED every minute of it. Join us for their family session at Gratz Park in Lexington, Kentucky.

Meet the Heets! The littlest one is Wiley, who's turning two here soon! He's currently a fan of Elmo, running and giving kisses to Mom + Dad. We spent a beautiful evening at Waveland Historic Home in Lexington, Kentucky getting some updated family photos for this adorable family!

Harper has completed her first lap around the sun! This gal is a bundle of energy that is so, so joyful. She loves snacks, dogs and laughing at videos of herself laughing. I’m in awe of her little personality shining through! From love to marriage, to pregnancy to Harper's arrival, it's been a wild few years for the Petit family and I'm so thankful to have been along for the ride to document some of it for them. Enjoy Harper's one year session!
