I was so excited to have the Steger family back in front of my camera for another family session! Amanda and Gage have trusted me to photograph their family for a few years now, and I love getting to see how much their girls have grown between sessions. It’s hard to believe their youngest, who I photographed as a tiny newborn, is already looking like such a big girl!


We met at the Crystal Lake Nature Center at Veterans Acres and spent the evening exploring together. We walked around, checked out the nature along the way, and caught up on life while taking photos of their sweet family. I had the best time with all four of them, and I’m so excited about the images we captured! They show so much of the fun this family has together.


Getting to photograph a family again and again is one of my favorite parts of what I do. I love hearing what’s new and getting to capture their family as their little ones grow. Being trusted to come back for another session means so much to me!


Steger family, thank you for spending another evening with me and trusting me with these memories! I loved getting to see you all again, and I couldn’t wait to share a few favorites. Snuggle up—your sneak peek is live!
