Hello there, my name is Emily Carrels. I am based in Aberdeen, South Dakota and love shooting maternity, first 48, newborn, milestone, lifestyle, family and boudoir portraits. I grew up in western South Dakota, met my incredible husband while attending Augustana College, and am now a mama to two sweet boys.
I like
creating in the kitchen
my boys' giggles
freshly washed sheets
I dislike
unpacking
mosquitos
the feeling of chalk
I am obsessed with
good conversation
meaningful relationships
dark chocolate anything
When you find someone who is in your corner through every stage of life, you do not let them go. My husband is not only up for every photo and every crazy idea I have, but truly makes my world go around. We will be recreating these amazingly awkward photos below every five years for our anniversary, and I cannot wait.
