For photographers, we all crave that perfect light around sunset, the “Golden Hour.” The way it gives everyone that perfect angelic halo glow, the softness in the shadows, the warmth as it hits our skin. I once had a session at sunset, but it was a gloomy day in Kansas City. The couple was about […]

A Season of Change Fall is a time of transition, and for the Krasick family, this season brings not only a transformation in nature but also an enriching experience for their family. Welcoming a foreign exchange student into their home has added an extra layer of diversity and joy to their daily lives, making this […]

They did NOT want normal fall photos. So we got ice cream in our bell bottoms instead. YESS! “You can’t buy me love, but you can buy me ice cream” hit home as a special quote for them too. What a special day. I just adore Jess and her family. Seriously, check out these epic […]

I need these kids to follow me to all my sessions to get others to laugh and giggle as much as them. This session was FULL of energy. Mom and dad fully contributing too. *smiles* I can’t get enough of all the long lasting spring around Kansas City. If you get an opportunity to do […]

THESE TREES! …. and all these incredible smiles and eyes. The purple and white trees are so short lived here in Kansas City and I seriously love them for photos! I’m so glad we had one on the Bingham Waggoner property for these spring portraits of the whole Pederson family. What a great group of […]

Taylor family fall photos, at Bass Pro Waterfall Park in fall 2021. Don’t you love how “clients” become incredible friends? How the earth aligned and amazing conversations were had.. Cute “meet cutes” have become one of my favorite things to hold onto. I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Chrissy and her family over this […]

The Davis Family, fall photos at Kauffman Performing Arts in Kansas City, Missouri, winter 2021. Ever have those incredible businesses you admire and drool over?

The Duggan Family fall photos at Bass Pro Waterfall Park in Independence, Missouri fall 2021. I love three so much there just aren’t many words.

Joe & Miranda’s newborn family photos, in Smithville, Missouri, Summer of 2021. This baby has been prayed for, thought about, loved on and in the making for hundreds and hundreds of days. Every bit of her was worth the wait for this mama and papa. Bursting with joy, thankfulness and smitten for this beautiful Mackenzie, […]

Tresa & Quinn’s family lifestyle session at their home in Kansas City, Missouri, Summer 2021. These two have such a special family. I love that they rescued their adorable pup too. I’m just not sure what I love more: them, their pup or their amazing home. A great combination if you ask me. I love […]

If you don’t follow me on Facebook or Instagram:  You’re missing out. You missed our incredible news!   This was my A.M. post: My water has broke. Headed into labor. They plan to induce at 2pm. It will be two precious little boys. I’ve carried them in my heart for so long! I’ve been praying […]

This family is something so special. Their journey to finding each other has been a roller coaster of emotions all around. I’m so seriously honored to have met them and get to photograph their precious, precious family. This mom and dad has so much love for their two twins and their family, it’s not even […]

There’s been something so special about how covid has forced us to stay in, document in our yards, in our homes and stay intimate. Actually, I REALLY love coming to peoples homes and doing lifestyle sessions. They are so intimate, in your environment with all your favorite things. It’s so special. I hope we continue […]

Sara a former volleyball player of mine and her little one Weston joined our Fall Mini Sessions at the Bingham Waggoner Estate in Independence, Mo. last week. This little cutie woke up from his nap on his drive over not a super happy camper. But he fell in love with our tangerine dream, our orange […]

I can’t even begin to understand what it has been like for my couples who have planned weddings during this covid season, or more importantly who have HAD BABIES during this time. What a crazy experience I’m sure. For my awesome couples like Jennifer and Homer, they had their baby and then just a couple […]
