This weekend we had the pleasure of attending the wedding of my elementary school best friend. She was a beautiful bride, and the intimate ceremony and low-key reception fit her personality perfectly. Even better – I adore her new husband – how he looks at her, treats her, and makes her laugh. It was great catching up with old friends, too.

Newborn Baby Colton
My good friend Lindsey and her husband Aaron welcomed their first baby boy into the world on Tuesday. I had the pleasure of hanging out with Lindsey and baby Colton at the hospital Wednesday evening. He has the most gorgeous deep blue eyes and blonde hair. Once you meet him you don’t want to take your eyes off him!
Project 52 Week 1: And Now I Pronounce You …
This photo was taken at our friend Christa’s wedding this weekend. It was a beautiful and touching ceremony, from the tears that were shed to the classy red and black colors. And most importantly; the bride and groom were both glowing all night!
Day 355: Sneak Peak
Yesterday I had the privilege of shooting portraits for a family who was reunited after seven years. I loved getting to know the three generations of George’s and the rest of the family!
Day 323: Fall Family Portraits
I had a great time shooting family portraits Saturday morning. The family joked around, laughed constantly, and willingly tried some of my goofy portrait ideas. I hope they enjoyed it as much as I did!
Day 295: They grow up too fast
One of my closest friends lives across the country, but I’m lucky that she travels back home frequently. Even when I see her every couple of months, her baby girl looks so different each time. Here are photo #1 and photo #2 from earlier this year.
Day 282: Love Is In The Air
Here are a few sneak peek photos from Saturday’s engagement photo shoot with Jennifer & Brian at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. I’ve known Jennifer since 5th grade, but it was great to finally meet Brian and see how happy they are together. And despite what they may say, they’re so photogenic!
(For those who don’t know, I do portraits in the Kansas City area. First-time customers can get the sitting fee and a high-res CD for $99.)
Day 275: A Double Feature
I had to post two photos for Saturday. Saturday morning I had the privilege of doing family portraits for Bobby, Sarah, and baby Elise. I love this photo because it seems so real and natural. On Saturday evening I attended my former high school marching band’s “Electric Light Show.” My dad is the assistant band director there. I had a great time shooting photos of the band all lit up at night.
Day 256: Sunset Silhouette
After playing around with my 50 mm lens yesterday evening, this was my favorite image of the night. I’ll be traveling for work the next few days, so I’ll post photos after I return.
Day 244: She may not be the President…
… but she’s still famous, at least for Kansas City! Last night we had the pleasure of watching Ida McBeth perform at the Zona Rosa Jazz on the Square concert series. Ida McBeth is a renowned performer at the Blue Room, and I can see why. She has such a strong, full voice, and she’s just full of spirit and energy! I couldn’t pick just one photo. Which is your favorite?
By the way, I do have a friend who was lucky enough to photograph the president when he came to Joplin this spring after the tornado.
