I love it. Thanks for being so adorable on a perfect summer night at golden hour. Holding hands with you walking […]

This mom and dad are two of the neatest people. I learned so much watching them parent. Their patience and […]

I was so excited to share these images from the Fort Osage Christmas Tree Farm with the Henson family. We did these early November to leave them enough time to order their holiday cards. But I didn’t want to share them so that I wouldn’t spoil their surprise in the mail, if any family had […]

My ULTIMATE favorite shoots are when you let yourselves be you and then I get to document it. This sunset, laid back evening into bath time was exactly what keeps me refreshed in my photography. Every little diaper change, splash in the tub, and bedtime kiss with mom and dad will mean so much to this family as […]

These girls really might be the most precious little things. Model poses, they’ve got it. Outgoing humor, they’ve got it. Rambunctiousness, they’ve got it. Cuteness, they’ve got it.
