One of the few times I have to just go out and shoot photos is during my lunch break, which doesn’t lend itself to the best light, but I make do. Here’s a shot from my photo walk on Wednesday.
And don’t forget about my holiday portrait special!

Project 52 Week 40: [Wo]man’s Best Friend
This is my favorite photo of my friend Julie’s dog from a holiday portrait session we did last week. Check out that tongue. Isn’t she adorable?
Project 52 Week 39: Purple Light
Last week my extended family attended Purple Light – a vigil to honor & remember loved ones who have faced pancreatic cancer. The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network hosts the event to raise awareness about pancreatic cancer and how desperately funding is needed for research to learn more about the deadly disease. Survival rates are the lowest among all cancers and haven’t improved over the last 40 years.
Newborn Photography | Baby Ruth
Earlier this week my cousin and her husband blessed the world with Ruthie, their sixth child. Of course she’s perfectly sweet and gorgeous. Here are a few favorites from our hospital visit.
Project 52 Week 38: To Have and To Hold
Saturday evening I had the privilege of photographing Miranda & Jesse’s wedding. The fall farm setting was gorgeous, and having her fathers’ and guests’ airplanes in the background was a memorable touch. This was my first wedding, and since it wasn’t nearly as nerve-racking as I thought it might be, I hope it’s not my last. Do you have a favorite image below – or suggestions for the new wedding photographer?
Project 52 Week 37: Football Season
Of all the birthday-related activities my husband participated in last week for his Sept. birthday, playing with his new football may have been his favorite.
Project 52 Week 36: Watchcat
On Saturday morning my husband and three of our friends ran in the Kansas City Zoo Run – a 4-mile run to benefit the Sumatran Tigers. After running 4 miles, we got free tickets to the zoo, so we walked about 4 more miles looking at all the animals. Even though I don’t have kids, I love going to the zoo because 1) I love animals, and 2) there are great photographic opportunities. My photo tip about zoos is to use the largest aperture (smallest number) you can, so the fences in the foreground are blurry and less of a distraction.
Thanks to the TV series Meerkat Manor, I bring you a photo of one of my favorite animals.
Project 52 Week 35: Faces of Innocence
We had a big family get together at my parents’ house this weekend, using my cousin’s 30th birthday as a great excuse to hang out. With 10 little ones in the family, we were grateful for a gorgeous day so we could play outside. As usual, I couldn’t pick one favorite photo. All of my cousins are so cute!
Irish Shenanigans
Here are a few “street photography” shots from the Kansas City Irish Fest last weekend. It’s one of the best places to people watch.
