Halloween is behind us, but don’t cut to Christmas yet … we’ve still got lots of fall left! I’ve got so many fall portraits coming at you these next few weeks. Check out my latest session, right in this family’s own backyard! Their uncle and cousin even got to join in a few photos. Aren’t they adorable?

Senior Portraits | Meet Erica
It’s always a treat to take senior photos, and this session was definitely no exception! Check out a few of my favorites from Erica’s session at Black Hoof Park. Isn’t she gorgeous?
Fall portraits | A perfect golden hour
I looove when I have the opportunity to meet new clients. This family was so much fun to capture! The girls were the sweetest, and it was extra-special to have a few pictures with their grandma and nana, too. Without further ado, here are a few gems from the evening.
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!
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!
Mini Session #2 | Black Hoof Park
My second mini session at Black Hoof Park was for this sweet family of five, who I’ve been taking photos of since way back when they got engaged. The girls had a lot of fun choosing their favorite spots and poses this year…and they nailed it. I always love working with them!
Family Portraits | Liberty Memorial
I believe one of the things that makes my portrait sessions different, is that I love shooting at different places and finding unique vantage points. That’s exactly what we did last weekend at Liberty Memorial. There were several photographers set up with the iconic skyline in the background, and while we shot there too, I love the photos we got in other spots – the fountain, mosaic walls, and the actual memorial in the background. These silly kids made the session….and editing…so much fun. Little Kendrix made all the silly faces!
Family Session | Hints of Fall
It may have been in the 90s when we took these photos last weekend, but the few fallen leaves definitely give these a crisp, fall feel. We hit the jackpot with some great photo spots at the Parkville Nature Sanctuary. I loved taking photos of these silly girls and their sweet parents!
Family Portraits | Slow Down, Time!
We took advantage of this family’s beautiful backyard landscape for their portraits last weekend, and it couldn’t have been a more perfect setting. Plus, kids are often more comfortable in familiar surroundings. I love all of these sweet smiles! It’s so fun looking back to see how quickly they’ve grown – check out last year’s photos and newborn photos to see how quickly they’ve grown.
