Photographer Hi! I'm Liz - photographic storyteller of all things childhood.

Whether a baby's first breath, a high schooler ready to graduate, or the milestones in between, I'll be there to capture every moment for you to cherish for a lifetime.

Senior sessions are meant to feel like *you* — not stiff, not awkward, and definitely not boring.

This session had it all… a pond for splashing, a bridge for twirling, swings for a little nostalgia, and even a bright red caboose. We laughed, changed up her looks, and captured the most genuine moments in between.

If you want your senior session to actually be fun, here are three little secrets:
• Choose a location with variety so you can move, explore, and relax into the moment
• Bring outfits that feel like your real personality (not just what you think photos should look like)
• Let yourself be playful — the magic always lives in the in-between moments

Your senior year only happens once. Let’s make it feel like you.

So tiny. So peaceful.
Just days new and already so deeply loved.

This newborn girl’s session was slow and quiet, wrapped in soft tones and gentle moments. Swaddled snugly in a wicker basket, she slept soundly — the kind of stillness that makes you want to pause time just a little longer.

As a newborn photographer in Bloomington IL, I create a calm, baby-led space where families can relax and trust that their newborn is safe, comfortable, and cared for. These early days are fleeting, and capturing them now allows you to remember just how small and sweet they once were.

“Can we keep things casual?”

Always. 🤍

Lifestyle sessions are all about capturing your family just as you are—playing games in the living room, laughing way too loud, and even bundling up for snowy adventures. No stiff poses, no pressure… just real life.

The Shirk family leaned fully into that energy for their annual session, and the result was a gallery full of joy, connection, and the perfect amount of silliness. These are the moments that deserve to be remembered.

If you’re dreaming of photos that feel like you, I’d love to document your family’s story next. Reach out to book your lifestyle session or learn more at

“Can we make our family session multigenerational?”

Yes please!!! 💛

I absolutely adore when families include grandparents. It likely stems from my own deep love for my grandparents—and how much I treasure the memories preserved in the photos I have with and of them.

The Sikes family truly cherishes Lina, their beloved matriarch with the sweetest soul. She was so happy to be included in their family portrait session—and absolutely tickled when I asked her nearly grown grandkids to plant kisses on her cheeks. Moments like these are everything.

No babies are ever pinched, squeezed, or nibbled on ... at least not by me 🫣

Cuteness aggression is real. I think you can feel it when you look at these images of sweet Lula during her newborn session in the studio. It took a lot of restraint not to sniff her head of hair, but I did it. I managed to stay professional for this newborn session.

Her siblings, however, are another story. They just adore Miss Lula, as do her parents. And I absolutely loved documenting their fondness for her.

If you're currently pregnant, now's the time to book your newborn session. You'll be so glad you did, because babies don't keep, so you'll want to be sure to freeze these moments in time.

How sweet it is to be loved by you ...

Von LOVES Olivia. Like, he's obsessed. He couldn't keep his eyes off her and his hands often cradled her belly.

I adore sessions like this. I work to make every studio experience comfortable and easy, and I didn't have to work hard with Von and Olivia, their love for one another was simply authentic and at the surface.

Senior sessions are meant to be fun, easy going, and tailored to YOU.

Jackson didn't have a vision for his session which is a-ok. As we started getting some shots in, though, he had ideas start to form, so we ran with it. In the end, we made it atop a parking garage and those are some of my favorite moments in his gallery.

If you're a current senior, it's not too late to schedule your senior session. And if you're class of 2027, it's not too early to book your senior session. Let's chat.

Seniors - I promise you we will pivot during your planned session when necessary!

Cash came out ready to rock during his senior session. The weather, however, didn't. While we were able to capture a few outdoor shots, it was simply too cold to stay out for more than 10 minutes at a time.

We're so grateful to for allowing us a warm space to get some rad shots of this rock music loving senior.

Whether you have a specific vision for your senior session, or you need some guidance, I'm here to help. Let's chat soon.
