Ben + Amanda - The Wedding

Last weekend, I had the honor of joining more than 70 of Amanda + Ben's friends and family in Mexico to witness them say "I do", and it could not have been more beautiful! The fact that more than 70 people traveled to join their celebration is a huge statement to how awesome Amanda and Ben are as a couple, and you could feel the excitement of everyone the whole weekend. 

The ceremony, which overlooked the beach, was so personalized to Amanda and Ben and a great representation of their love story. From a surprise flash mob to a most epic dance party, which didn't stop from the time the dj started to when he ended, the night was simply perfect. 

I was so honored to be a part of their day and you'll have to excuse the ridiculously long post below, because I just couldn't narrow down my favorites :) Enjoy a preview into Amanda + Ben's Mexico wedding!

This is why I LOVE first looks...seriously. Major thanks to Callie for pulling double duty as a bridesmaid and my second shooter, she grabbed that amazing shot on the left!

Sam - Newborn Photos

Baby Sam entered the world just before Christmas and I was excited to finally meet him last weekend, and see his big sister Sophie again! He is such a little peanut and you can tell Sophie just loves being a big sister. Check out a few photos from my afternoon with the Matczynski Family!

Nolan - One Year Old

I had the pleasure of hanging out with Nolan and his parents last weekend at one of my favorites spots to shoot in Kewaunee, The Barnsite Retreat and Events Center. I was able to take this little fella's newborn photos as well, and his mom even brought the same little truck that we put him in during his first photoshoot. It was so fun to see how much he has grown! Check out a few of my favorites from his session below.
