Back to Portraits

Most of my clients typically stray away from doing photos in the heat of the summer, so this is my first portrait session in a month or so. We lucked out with a relatively cool evening. This is one of my favorite families ever (and yes, I’m partial because Julie is one of my best friends). The older kiddos are loads of fun, and 6-month-old Baby D couldn’t be cuter! He was enthralled with looking down at the grass, so we improvised and had Daddy “toss” him in the air to capture his smile from the right angle.

Family Portraits – Green Space

On June 30, 2016 By LindyIn photography, portraits

What a difference half a year can make! I took this family’s photos back in November, and I’m honored they asked me to do them again this summer. Little Oliver has changed so much! We tried out a new photo spot – Penguin Park in North KC. Not only is there a fun playground – there’s a lake with geese! I love how easy this family is to work with, and I can’t wait to finish editing the rest of their photos.

First Birthday – West Bottoms

On June 22, 2016 By LindyIn baby, photography, portraits, toddler1 Comment

I loved photographing Eli and his family in the West Bottoms this past weekend. It seems like his parents were just bringing him home, but he already celebrated his first birthday. He’s the happiest, smiley-est (yes, I said smiley-est) baby in town! He and his fun parents made my job easy. What a cutie!

Downtown KC Portraits

On June 20, 2016 By LindyIn family, photography, portraits1 Comment

I had the pleasure of photographing this fun mama and her four spunky kids last weekend. We did something completely different – starting in downtown Kansas City’s Rivermarket and taking the new (free!) street car to the Crossroads to shoot more photos there. We even got a shot on the street car! I would love to shoot senior portraits all along the street car route. Class of 2017: who’s with me?

Family Portraits, Happy Rock Trail

On May 19, 2016May 19, 2016 By LindyIn photography, portraits1 Comment

We had perfect weather yesterday evening for family portraits! You’d never guess it, but this mamma of two boys was nervous about them not sitting still and posing for photos. Don’t they look like sweet angels? Well, they are, but they’re also very busy. But that’s normal and that’s ok! We made it fun by moving around and making silly faces…and still got great photos.

Family Portrats – Liberty Memorial

On May 3, 2016May 3, 2016 By LindyIn photography, portraits

I loved working with this family last fall, and I couldn’t be happier that they asked me to do their extended family portraits this spring! Kansas City’s Liberty Memorial is a great place for photos – the obvious iconic memorial, the city skyline, the steps and stone, and the greenery offer a ton of variety. I was pumped that they had a few of their own ideas for fun poses. And what’s not to love about mint green Chuck Taylor’s?

Warmer, longer days are upon us, which means it’s a great time for spring portraits! I’m offering a Spring Special: book a basic portrait session by the end of April, and you’ll get five additional high-resolution edited images for the same price. The portrait session is good April-June. Contact me now to secure your spot!

He is risen!

He is risen indeed. Happy Easter, snow and all!

I’m back!

On March 9, 2016 By LindyIn photography, toddler

Hey, there! It’s been a while. My family has been going through a lot of life changes – so many that I haven’t had a second to work on photos. Tonight, I decided to take a little break to edit photos from over a month ago, before Lil’ Miss K even turned two. Next, I’ll actually edit her birthday photos and post those. I’ve missed this little blog…I’ve definitely missed my photography.

These were taken in the West Bottoms in an attempt to get some two-year-old shots. Unfortunately Lil’ Miss K was in a clingy mood and a bit afraid of the bridge, so things didn’t go as planned. But we still managed to get a few keepers!

Portrait Session | Miss M’s Family

On November 16, 2015November 16, 2015 By LindyIn photography, portraits

I had such a great time taking portraits for this energetic family yesterday. My husband teaches with “Miss M,” and I joke that I didn’t know her first name for at least a year, since he tends to call his coworkers by the same names the students use. Despite the chilly temperatures and brisk wind, these two feisty, fun kids did a great job posing and being themselves. (Mom and Dad did pretty well, too.) I’m so happy with how these turned out – I can’t wait to edit the rest!
