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 | Erfurt Park #2
One of my OG families is back for their annual family portraits! We did try a new-to-us park, which has so much variety in close proximity. (By the way … can you tell they’re skipping in the first photos? I love their enthusiasm!)
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 | 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 Photos | Red Bridge
This was such a fun, new-to-me location to take photos! The original bridge dates back to 1859, but a little over 10 years ago, rather than the city demolishing it, it was turned into a pedestrian bridge where people could add their love locks. And this family has so much love to give..making it the perfect spot for their family pics.
Senior Photos | Jaden
I had a blast taking Jaden’s senior photos last weekend! Lots of different looks in a short amount of time. These were taken during the golden hour at Black Hoof Park…one of my favorite photo spots. If you’re looking for photos this fall – I only have a couple of openings left!
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!
