Portrait Session | Anniversary Photos – Wedding Dress and All

On July 29, 2018September 6, 2018 By LindyIn family, photography, portraits

This is the first couple I took “professional” photos for – engagement photos over a decade ago. Now, ten years later, I have the honor of shooting their anniversary photos – with Lauren in her beautiful wedding dress (it still fits!), and their three children. I love the idea of re-creating wedding photos to show what has changed, and what hasn’t, over the last decade. I may even steal the idea myself next year. 😉 Congratulations to Lauren and Justin on their 10-year anniversary, and thank you for your continued faith in me to capture your beautiful family!

Family Portraits | Beating the Heat

On July 13, 2018July 13, 2018 By LindyIn family, photography

Last weekend I shot family photos in the Leawood area, and despite the extreme Kansas heat, it didn’t slow down the energy of these adorable boys (or their parents)! I always enjoy shooting photos for this family – they’re so kind and so much fun. And those eyes on the boys!

Family Portraits | A Day of Smiles

On June 14, 2018 By LindyIn family, photography, portraits

My second portrait session of the day last weekend was at E.H. Young Park along the Missouri River. It’s definitely a hidden gem…and so is this family! I love them to pieces. They all have such great smiles and beautiful hearts!

Family Portraits | At the Park

On June 14, 2018 By LindyIn family, photography, portraits

This family is too fun – especially little Oliver! Mama doesn’t care for the geese, but he sure has fun feeding them. And he’s such a great big brother to little Ben. I feel honored that they continue to ask me to capture moments of their family as the kids grow.

Mommy and Me | Maternity Portraits

On June 1, 2018June 1, 2018 By LindyIn maternity, photography, portraits

Last weekend I had the chance to shoot a friends’ maternity portraits with her little girl. I’m so impressed by how well little Nora did and how great the photos turned out! Both were naturals in front of the camera. Daddy is going to love his Father’s Day gift! (Shhh…if you know him…don’t tell!)

Portrait Session | one.

On March 29, 2018March 29, 2018 By LindyIn baby, photography, portraits

I feel like I just shot 6-month photos of this little guy … and now he’s ONE! He is one stylin’ kid – and the West Bottoms turned out to be a perfect backdrop. The balloons may have blown away and it was way too cold for a cake smash, but we still got smiles and loads of cuteness!

Portrait Session | Lots of Smiles

On March 27, 2018 By LindyIn family, photography, portraits

I’m excited to welcome back one of my most loyal families. I’ve taken photos for them since their engagement – now their oldest is six and their youngest is almost three! It’s fun to watch the kiddos grow from the photographer’s perspective and see how much easier portrait sessions get as they mature. Although I always love a little bit of crazy thrown in!

Portrait Session | Silver Anniversary

On March 16, 2018 By LindyIn photography, portraits

Last weekend I had the opportunity to take photos for this couple’s 25th wedding anniversary! We’ve been family friends for years – in fact, Tom was the one who came to the rescue and gave us a ride on our wedding day when our Bentley broke down. They are the type of people you know will do anything for you, so I felt honored to help them commemorate their big day!

Miss M | 5 Months Old

On December 5, 2017December 4, 2017 By LindyIn baby, photography

This sweet girl brings our family so much joy! She’s occasionally sleeping through the night, trying hard to sit up, and squealing in happiness all the time. She loves it when we sing and read to her! According to my scale at home, she weighs almost 13 pounds. I just can’t even believe how fast time is going with her.

See how she’s changed in a month.

Family Portraits | Skyline View

On November 17, 2017November 17, 2017 By LindyIn family, photography, portraits

Last weekend I met up with one my regular families for their yearly photos. Even though we planned them a little earlier in the season, it was still cold! Last year, I helped take photos for a birth announcement. This year, they have a sweet new baby boy, just two days older than my baby girl. They always pick fun locations – this time we headed to Kaw Point for a view of the downtown KC skyline. I planned it for perfect golden hour lighting, but it was foggy with no sun in sight. Luckily we still got some keepers!
