Family Photos | Ernie Miller Nature Center

I tried to look back in the archives for the first time I took photos of this family…and after looking through several months of what was probably the wrong year, I finally gave up. But I will tell you, it was probably about 12 years ago! I love that they keep coming back for updated photos – it’s the best way to show how fast the kids grow over the years. This family was filled with so much energy and positivity during their session, I felt myself smiling the whole time!

Family Photos | Red Bridge

This was such a fun, new-to-me location to take photos! The original bridge dates back to 1859, but a little over 10 years ago, rather than the city demolishing it, it was turned into a pedestrian bridge where people could add their love locks. And this family has so much love to give..making it the perfect spot for their family pics.

Senior Photos | Caleb

Part of the joy of taking senior photos is trying to capture their personality. I hope I did just that with my nephew Caleb – a farm boy who works hard every day, has a serious and goofy side, and has solid plans after he graduates.

Senior Photos | Jaden

I had a blast taking Jaden’s senior photos last weekend! Lots of different looks in a short amount of time. These were taken during the golden hour at Black Hoof Park…one of my favorite photo spots. If you’re looking for photos this fall – I only have a couple of openings left!

Family Portraits | Kauffman Center

Well, hello there! My schedule is filling up with fall photos … and this session kicked off my busy season. It’s been a few years since I took photos at the Kauffman Center, and I’d forgotten how perfect it is for portraits. It may have been hot, and windy, and sticky outside, but it was so much fun capturing this moment in time with this extended family.

High School Grad + The Fam

Last weekend I got to capture photos of graduate Charlotte and her family. It was the perfect chance to get some traditional family portraits, a few senior-style pics, and cap and gown photos. All before her grad party later that day!

Do you know someone in the KC area graduating next year? It’s not too early to start thinking about senior photos! Summer is the perfect time for senior pics … before the school-year-crazy begins, and before my fall portrait schedule fills up.
