I had the privilege of taking the portraits for Blue Springs High School’s Color Guard team. Jessica is their coach, and after her Beloved session with her husband this spring, she really wanted to have me take their professional portraits at the high school.  It was seriously the breath of fresh air that I needed.

This family is just full of love and excitement.

Floyd is 10 weeks (two weeks ago). The first time I saw him do this, I about peed my pants. I knew I wanted to do a photo shoot of him, so his fate was already determined. This is his fun lovin personality always. Look at that face after the mess.. he thinks he’s in […]

So you bought the perfect frame to match your darling new dining room, and you have that beautifully composed image you want to show off in the frame… and then you go to print it and realize that you cut off a piece of the picture, whether it be the background, a part of the […]

I love these. What a simple idea.. I used to take shoe boxes you know, when we were kids, and we’d decorate them or buy fancy ones at the store to fill up with our lovely memories… Well now we have something as beautiful as a keepsake box, a high-end and creative way to display […]
