This adorable puppy lifestyle session is full of sloppy kisses, multiple dog naps and playful energy.

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 […]

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 […]

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? Chris’s business and what he’s created with The Lost Wax is my top recommendation and I am truly honored for his friendship as well. He’s supported my endeavors for years […]

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. Celebrating in the fall with picnics, photos, roasting marshmallows and running around fall trails has been fuel for my soul! Thank you for letting me document your cuties. And for […]

Happy fall,  merry Christmas, happy holidays & all the good things. Whether naughty or nice, it’s been wonderful seeing the few of you for sessions I had this year. How cute are these two? Mama is so creative!

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 […]

One of my mini sessions, and this one was so fun. Their playful poodle made his appearance, their kids were so joyful and attentive (seriously, never met kids who listened so well) and their overall stylish family just rocked this golden fall sunset. I absolutely admire Beth & Zach beyond words. These two are such […]

Lifestyle sessions are my favorite. Especially when they involve everyone making breakfast together, jumping on the trampoline and playing in their secret play rooms. I always adore photographing this family in their environment. These girls will rule the castle one day. A real castle somewhere. Believe it. Enjoy family time at home with this little […]

My incredible and talented friend Laura. My Jr High friend, my mentor, my photography idol, my pastors wife, my inspiration for all things human and art. I love Laura, Craig and their kiddos beyond words. These sessions are always because we photograph each other’s families and then we edit our own families sessions. So these […]

This sweet family, in their element: bubbles, mohawk helmet, giggles, root beer floats, playful and creative siblings topped off with loads of love. Just the kind of family I love to know. This front yard spring shoot in their front yard was perfectly fitting. Hugs to you friends.  

The saving grace for my family has been to get outdoors these quarantined days. We’ve done lots of walks around the neighborhood, we lay and listen to the birds, we’ve picnicked in the yard, drawn on the sidewalks, tossed the frisbee. Our favorite thing to do is stand in the sidewalks and talk to our […]

For those of you who didn’t know or missed our announcement in Nov of 2018 on Instagram, we are foster parents. Proud foster parents. We have two amazing little nuggets and started fostering them in 2018 and early 2019. While understanding the need for privacy and not sharing too much, I do however want to […]
