rowenhorsts | family portraits | waterloo, ia

i absolutely adore this family! and it's not because they're ridiculously good looking (they are, though, aren't they?). or because they let me take photos of their kids all the time. (i do, though.) it's because they're such unique, Jesus-loving, hilarious, wonderful people! (and maybe they are pretty adorable--or handsome--or beautiful.)
this session was so casual, but that's how i like 'em! we just hung out in the gorgeous fall friday sunshine. the boys threw sticks at each other, the girls fussed with their hair, and i just took photos. and boy oh boy, am i happy with how they turned out!
why don't you take a look? :)



(i hope i look this great after i have kids!)

the beautiful ladies:)




such studs!i just looooooove her hair. mmmmhm!








thank you so much for letting me shoot your family photos, Rowenhorsts!
love always,amelia renee:)

Kaitlin | senior portraits | cedar falls, ia portrait photographer

if you don't know Katie, you should get to know her! not only is she super adorable, she's super sweet! Katie, her mom & i had a fun evening just hanging out and taking some photos, and i'm more than pleased with how they turned out! [sidenote: Katie primarily wanted some winter shots, but since she needs something to put in the yearbook--hopefully before we see any of the "S" word!--we opted to split her session into 2 parts. so y'all get to see more photos of her later this winter! holla!]

seriously. how cute is she?!


one thing i didn't mention....i love when clients want to think outside of the box! props are always welcome. :)











love always,amelia renee:)

a little highlight of my weekend... | sibling portraits

sometimes, just sometimes,you find the perfect place for photos.and then you get inspired,and THEN you send out a tweet calling for a model (or two or three.)
and sometimes,just sometimes,your best friend is available(like always!)and brings her cutie-pa-tootie little brothers alongand you have a grand time running aroundin a field full of yellow flowersand caterpillarsand burrs (not so much fun, actually).
sometimes, just sometimes,that turns into the highlight of your weekend.



















have a blessed & restful Sunday, y'all!love always,amelia renee:)
