My final mini session of the evening a couple weeks ago happened right before sunset, which gave it a cooler, wintery feel … with a bonus sunset backdrop! I loved getting to know these new clients – they were so gracious and perfect to work with!

My name is Lindy, I'm in my 20s, and I have a passion for creativity! I love photography, graphic design, travel, cycling, and trying new things. I have a list of "30 goals before I'm 30," which include trying things like rock climbing, going on a mission trip, visiting Italy, and learning to sew. So far I've completed 15 of the 30 goals with 3 years to go!
Mini Session #3 | Black Hoof Park
Up next…mini session #3 at Black Hoof Park. This one started about an hour before sunset…perfect for golden hour light. This is another family I’ve been taking photos of for years, and they definitely have their smiles down to an art. They make my job easy. Fact: the moms in all three of these mini sessions are sisters!
Mini Session #2 | Black Hoof Park
My second mini session at Black Hoof Park was for this sweet family of five, who I’ve been taking photos of since way back when they got engaged. The girls had a lot of fun choosing their favorite spots and poses this year…and they nailed it. I always love working with them!
Mini Session #1 | Black Hoof Park
Last weekend I did a few back-to-back mini sessions at Black Hoof Park – one of my favorite places to shoot due to the variety of landscapes close together. You’ll see as I post these sessions how different they all look, due to lighting & location. Up first is the Talley family – one of my regulars!
Family Portraits | Liberty Memorial
I believe one of the things that makes my portrait sessions different, is that I love shooting at different places and finding unique vantage points. That’s exactly what we did last weekend at Liberty Memorial. There were several photographers set up with the iconic skyline in the background, and while we shot there too, I love the photos we got in other spots – the fountain, mosaic walls, and the actual memorial in the background. These silly kids made the session….and editing…so much fun. Little Kendrix made all the silly faces!
Family Portraits | On the Prairie
Energy + giggles + smiles = the perfect formula for a successful portrait session. This family had all three, and we had a blast at Prairie Center – one of their favorite places to explore. I’m loving every photo from this session!
Family Session | Hints of Fall
It may have been in the 90s when we took these photos last weekend, but the few fallen leaves definitely give these a crisp, fall feel. We hit the jackpot with some great photo spots at the Parkville Nature Sanctuary. I loved taking photos of these silly girls and their sweet parents!
Family Portraits | Slow Down, Time!
We took advantage of this family’s beautiful backyard landscape for their portraits last weekend, and it couldn’t have been a more perfect setting. Plus, kids are often more comfortable in familiar surroundings. I love all of these sweet smiles! It’s so fun looking back to see how quickly they’ve grown – check out last year’s photos and newborn photos to see how quickly they’ve grown.
Family Portraits | English Landing
It’s been so fun to watch this family grow through the years. Their boys parallel my girls in ages and personalities so much that I always feel like I can relate to them. This year, we headed out to the beautiful English Landing Park, trying our best to avoid the crowds of outdoor enthusiasts. You’d never know this park was crowded from the photos!
Family Portraits | Stoll Park
Even though temps say otherwise, we’re already gearing up for fall portrait season! This repeat family was open to trying a new spot, so we checked out Stoll Park. It was the perfect spot for an early morning session, with a pond, beautiful trees and bridges, and native plant fields.
