Now that the secret is out💕 Stasell Family of 5 COMING SOON 💙🩷🩵🩵🩵 ✨ Scraped knees, sunset light, and the sweetest chaos ✨ This family session at Camp Aramoni had everything—Asher hiding behind dad, Emmett sprinting into the distance (for a solid 15 minutes 😅), and a whole lot of love. I’ve been lucky enough to photograph these boys since they were babies, and every time I see them, their personalities shine a little brighter. Watching families grow year after year? That’s the real magic of what I do. Whether we’re exploring the wild beauty of Illinois or soaking in desert sunsets in New Mexico, I’m here for the messy, meaningful moments that make your story yours. 📍Serving Illinois + New Mexico 📸 Family + Maternity Photographer 💌 Let’s capture your chaos, too. #illinois #newmexico #travelingphotographer #photographer #family #familyphotos #newmexicofamilyphotos #familyphotography #carlsbadnm #carlsbadnewmexico #centralillinios #naturallightphotography #brightandbold

Just when I thought these two couldn’t be any cuter… enter their pup Cash (not technically a puppy, but all dogs are forever puppies in my eyes). The real star? The sweet little babe growing in Saharah’s belly! She had me melting with a Winnie the Pooh onesie and necklace—my childhood fave! Between windy New Mexico magic, the glowiest sunset, and their pure sunshine energy, this session was everything. Big moves, a new baby, and all the love—can’t wait to watch this next chapter unfold! #NewMexicoPhotographer #MaternitySession #CarlsbadNM #NMPhotography #MaternityPhotoshoot #DesertLove #GoldenHourMagic #DogParents #ExpectingParents #WinnieThePoohVibes

Sunset, snuggles, and duck chases 🦆✨ This beautiful mama and her sweet girls had my heart from the very beginning. Stella was all gummy grins and chubby cheeks at six months old (seriously, a little ray of sunshine ☀️), and Kataleya? Pure firecracker energy. She had big plans to catch a duck during our session—and I was fully prepared to help... until Dad let me in on her history with ducks. 😅 So we settled for chasing them instead! We laughed, explored, and soaked in the golden light—and I left with a full heart and a new appreciation for the little wild moments that make family sessions so magical. #carlsbadnmphotographer #familyphotography #motherhoodunplugged #carlsbadnmfamilyphotographer #lifestylephotography #goldenhourmagic #naturallightphotographer #newmexicophotographer #hannahnicholephotography #travelingphotographer #SENM #newmexico #illinois #illinoisphotographer #travel

✨Stormy skies, fierce vibes, and one incredible hairstylist (with a little help from her cousin).✨ What started as a branding session in the desert quickly turned into an adventure when the storm rolled in! We were out in Carlsbad, capturing the magic of [Stylist’s Name] and her cousin Ashley when the clouds darkened, the wind picked up, and rain started pouring down. 🌩️💨 No golden hour glow, but we made it work. Between dodging rain and maybe stopping traffic for a quick shot in the road, we captured some seriously powerful moments. 💁‍♀️🚗 Sometimes, the best memories come from the unexpected—and this one is definitely one for the books. Bold, beautiful, and totally unstoppable. #DesertStormSession #HairStylistBranding #CarlsbadNM #BrandingPhotography #StormyVibes #BoldAndUnstoppable #Carlsbad #Branding #HairStylist #BrandingPhotos #HairSalon #Desert #DesertBrandingShoot #BrandingShoot

Oh sweet Nolan 😍 This little love was so wide-eyed and curious, just taking in every bit of the world around her. She was perfectly happy snuggling with her gorgeous mama... until she spotted the ocotillo plants. 🌵✨ From that moment on, nothing else mattered — girlfriend was on a mission to touch them! Clearly, she’s already following in her mama’s footsteps with her love for beautiful things. 🫶 (And if you have no idea what an ocotillo is, trust me — look them up. They're stunning when they bloom!) #hannahnicholephotography #newmexicophotographer #familyphotographer #motherhoodphotography #candidchildhood #ocotillo #desertphotography #lifestylephotography #familyphotosession #naturalphotography #adventurefamilyphotography #newmexicofamilyphotographer #storytellingphotography #goldenhourphotos #childhoodunplugged #CarlsbadNM #TravelingPhotographer #Ocotillo #Desert #mommyandme
