{Rachael + Christian}

It's been a while since I've done any portrait sessions! I missed it so much. 

Last night I spent a couple hours strolling around picturesque canals and parks taking photos of Rachael and Christian. She's an American expat I met through my blog, and he's the Dutch boy who stole her heart and brought her to the Netherlands over two years ago. 

These two are getting married in Mexico next year, but wanted some photos in Amsterdam as it obviously holds a very special place in their hearts.

I had so much fun with them. Mixing Christian's dry sense of humor with Rachael's infectious laugh made for a very smiley (and smoochy) evening :)

Here are just a few of my favorites from this session! We lucked out with a gorgeous summer night & some incredible light.

{Sneak Peek: Evelyn Zoe}

I'm so beyond grateful Evelyn Zoe decided to show up a week early so I could meet her! She is the cutest little thing I've ever seen! Talk about baby fever. Meghan and Jeff make first-time parenthood look easy :) I'm only sharing a few for now as I know Meghan and Jeff are planning on using one of the photos I took for their birth announcement and I don't want to ruin the surprise, but I just had to brag and share at least a couple! 


Meghan and Jeff - You made an incredibly beautiful and precious little girl. She is so ridiculously lucky to have you both as parents. I can't wait to watch Evelyn grow, watch how she changes your life and witness the love you clearly have for each other now multiply for this little one. Congratulations!

{Sweet Baby Emma: Part II}

Snapped these photos on a trip to Chicago to visit our precious niece, Emma, last May.

{Sweet Baby Emma}

This weekend, we finally got to meet our adorable two-month old niece, Emma. And let me tell you, she is even more beautiful in person than she was in all the pictures and videos I saw of her! I spent the weekend taking mass amounts of photos of this little angel, and I just had to give you a little taste of how freakin' precious she is. Yes, that's right, these 11 photos are just a tiny preview. Because I have so many more to show you from this weekend. So stay tuned. For now, meet Emma. The cutest baby in all the world.
