Here’s the final set of photos I took at Black Hoof Park a couple weeks ago! I absolutely love the grasses and flowers popping up behind them. I met this family a few years ago at our kiddos’ swim team, and I just adore them! They made my job easy with those perfect smiles.

Family Photos | Black Hoof Park #2
Ok, I mentioned in my previous post how much the setting can change just from one part of the park to another. For my second session at Black Hoof Park, we headed down to the docks / boardwalk area along the lake. The sun was hitting the trees just right, giving it the perfect golden hue. Also .. I’ve been doing this family’s photos since their girls were newborns, and I can’t get over how fast they’ve grown up!
Family Photos | Black Hoof Park #1
Last weekend I did three mini sessions back-to-back in the same park. You’ll see from the next three posts how different the setting can look, from spot to spot and family to family. I’ve known and adored this family for a few years, and I’m so glad they reached out for photos! We may have had some fun skipping across the bridge … I can’t wait to surprise them with those photos!
Family Photos | Adorable in Erfurt Park
I tried out a new-to-me park for photos last weekend, and it was a keeper! Erfurt Park in Shawnee has lots of shade, a bridge, pond, pretty grasses, and open field … all a short walk from the parking lot. But can we talk about how adorable this family is? They have the sweetest smiles and infectious laughs!
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 | A Darling Family
Ok … isn’t this family darling? We re-created one of their favorite family photos from several years ago. As you can imagine, the kids have grown up just a bit. And, their pup Arlo, may have stolen the show.
Family Photos | Early Birds
It’s true what they say…the early bird gets the worm. This is one of my few families who are willing to do the early morning photoshoots. And boy, does it pay off with amazing lighting. The sun shining through the trees, no shadows to deal with, that golden hue … plus the most adorable family!
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.
Family Portraits | Close to home
You don’t have to travel far to get great family photos – these were taken right at my client’s neighborhood park! I love taking multi-generational photos, and this family was picture-perfect!
