Long-awaited joy. That’s what Arianna Wilhelmina is to Mark and Amy.

Arianna was named after her great-grandmother, Wilhelmina. I know Amy wishes her Grammy could have been around to meet sweet Arianna Wilhelmina. I know Amy shared with her Grammy the long time she and Mark waited to become parents. And sadly, when the day arrived that Arianna was born, Grammy had already been gone for half a year. Amy has shared with me how sad it is to move along though life without her grandma. But I’ve heard first-hand from Amy that Grammy would have wanted joy. She would have wanted nothing but pure joy for Mark and Amy. And it’s so easy for this couple to revel in this newfound joy when you see Arianna’s beautiful face.

Please enjoy this cherished birthstory of redeemed happiness and patience for a love this couple has never known before today.

Meant for each other. That’s the only way to describe Kanna and Tyler.

This sweet couple is getting married in August and I’m so excited to be part of it in this fashion. It’s no secret that these two love their dogs, laughing, and the St. Louis Cardinals.

We had a super fun time at their session and I’m so excited to show off their video courtesy of TJ Ingrassia.

Thanks for a fun time! Lots of Love!

Ben and Teresa celebrated their beautiful, chilly day a couple of weeks ago. In March, you just never know what kind of weather you will get. Especially when it will snow 10 inches one day and then be 65 degrees and sunny the next! Luckily, their day wasn’t ruined by any crazy weather. The breeze made for some beautiful shots of Teresa’s veil and from the photos you never would have guessed we were freezing. 🙂 Ben and Teresa’s sweet ceremony was held at St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Parish and their lovely reception was celebrated at Orlando’s.

Congratulations to the beautiful bride and handsome groom!

Mom calls her #5. She’s the absolute baby in the family and I’m sure such a joy in a household with four other siblings. In the short time I got to spend with her on this day, I can see how her bright blue eyes and massive amount of hair can win anyone over. 🙂 Plus, it doesn’t hurt that she’s got the sweetest personality. She loves her momma and big sister. Even when she got a bit fussy and NEEDED her bottle, she was still uber adorable. And capturing a moment of cuddles and comfort between mom and baby can be just as precious as her smiling face.

It’s so fun to watch you grow, Rosalie! Keep on brining those smiles.
