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!

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!
