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 […]

It’s always one of my favorite things photographing my favorite people. Here’s to one of my most beautiful friends and her precious family! I love you all.

These stylish little girlies were the best smilers and so attentive their whole family session in Kansas City at the Loose Park’s Rose Garden last week. With their fur, matching golden bows, their baby blonde hair and curly sue hair, and super hip shoes they were totally portrait ready. I’m always so much more pleased […]

We documented Colette & Eric and their little bunch at Kessler Park in Kansas City as they passed through, but just right before we left for our work trip to Singapore and Thailand and I’ve been itching to share these adorable four for a couple weeks! The life and love in this family is just […]

Rachel & Johnny, now getting to celebrate their engagement session. You see, I met Rachel and Johnny at Indie Wed in Kansas City, a really fabulous low key and intimate bridal show. Someone sent them over, “You have to go talk to Jana, she got married in Grand Lake, Colorado too!” The world aligned and […]

The girls I grew up with, built my faith and my life with, the girls who I conquered many Championship titles in elementary school and Jr high basketball with. […]

I am so proud of the photographers in the Mid-west. For those of you not aware, Joplin Missouri, a pretty large city very close to what we call home here in Kansas City, was hit by a tremendously large tornado on May 22, 2011.  Their lives came to an immediate stop, losing 30% of their […]

I couldn’t ask for better weather or better subjects. This session was such a warm sunset… and there were flowers galore.. that this session almost seemed dream like. Check out this beautiful family and welcome this cute little boy into our big world of discovering things and stretching our limbs. As always, don’t leave the […]

There are so many things in my life that I have to be thankful for. I have always looked back and thought about the people I have been blessed with to have in my surroundings, as friends or family. Really. I have been very lucky. God just gave me great people to be around.. always. […]
