This portrait session … dogs and all … was done and dusted in just 20 minutes! I have a few more mini sessions available this fall – just reach out to book! (You may recognize this family by now…I’ve been taking their photos since all their littles were babies!)

Family Portraits | A little red and a little blue
I always love the energy this family brings to their portraits … and how laid back they are. When the little ones want jewels on their face or have to be woken up for portraits, they roll with it. The results are “real life” shots … perfect in their own way! They’ll be so fun to look back on a few years from now.
Family Portraits | Downtown Liberty
They may be one of my “regulars,” but there’s nothing regular or boring about this photoshoot! I feel like their photos just keep getting better and better each year. From downtown Kansas City the last couple of years to downtown Liberty this year…we can find beautiful walls, doors, and hidden gems wherever we go. I’m loving how these turned out!
Family Portraits | Mother’s Day at Meadowbrook
An old college friend reached out to me about portraits, and we were able to do a special Mother’s Day photoshoot with her mom and family. Meadowbrook Park proved to be a great place for photos with a mix of nature and urban flair. And the sunflower sculpture is almost as gorgeous as this family!
Newborn Photos | Norah
Last time I posted here, I was featuring this little one as a baby bump. A few short weeks later, Norah made her entrance into this world! She couldn’t have been more precious throughout this session, and there’s nothing better than capturing memories with proud mom and dad.
Baby on the Way | Maternity Photos
I absolutely love taking maternity photos – capturing the love between a couple and their growing baby. Since we’re still in the season of winter, we decided to take these in an urban park. I’m in love with how these turned out!
Family Portraits | Falling into Winter
“I didn’t know this would be fun!” might be one of my favorite quotes from this season. I love hearing that families actually enjoy themselves during portraits with me. And yes – you can absolutely climb trees for a unique photo op if you want. (At your own risk, of course!) I had a great time with this family, whom I’ve known for years and finally had the opportunity to capture memories for. We lucked out on weather for my last outdoor shoot of the year!
Family Portraits | Adventures at Turkey Creek
When I approached this family about doing photos at the Turkey Creek waterfall, I had a feeling they’d be on board. They’re one of the most adventurous families I know – taking their kids on campouts and hikes from the time they were infants. They strapped on their waders and scaled the rocks like pros to get to the perfect spot. And I have to say…I think the end result was worth it!
Mini Session #4 | Black Hoof Park
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!
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!
