Meet Presley | ENP Newborns


One of the biggest joys in being a photographer who captures life and love in all its forms is to watch and capture my clients as their families grow. The Kenow family is one of my favorite examples of this, because I feel like I’ve been part of their family since it began!


From taking their engagement photos, to photographing their beautiful Lincoln, Nebraska, wedding (with first look and portraits at the Sunken Gardens), to maternity photos, to family photos, and now, taking newborn photos for baby number two, I feel so honored to be part of all of the milestones in their family’s life. Being a photographer is such a blessing for that reason!


Baby Presley was ready to come a little earlier than her mama and daddy planned, and she spent a little time in the NICU getting bigger and stronger. Thankfully, this beautiful baby was able to come home after a couple weeks, where her loving extended family and her big brother Ezekiel were waiting to meet her! A day later, she was in the studio with me, and we captured some beautiful memories!


Presley’s newborn session was so fun—she slept almost the entire time, and we played dress up with some of Presley’s outfits (her mama loves leopard print and it’s the theme of her nursery!) as well as blankets, swaddles, and headbands from my studio wardrobe. In addition to photos of just baby, we also got sibling photos and photos of the whole family.


The Kenow family chose to do this photo session at the Emily Nix Photography studios in downtown Seward, Nebraska. This is my "home base" for studio sessions, and I love being able to capture maternity, newborn sessions, milestone sessions for babies and children, families, and engagement/bridal portraits in this space.
