Extended Family Session at the winery.

This session was the perfect day.  Perfect location, weather and beautiful extended family to photograph.  I love photographing kiddos this age in family sessions because they keep things real and help avoid  everyone looking too “posey”.  You get what you get and sometimes the best photos are the ones just making sure everyone is happy.

Super Fun Senior Session, Crossroads Art District

When I create a blog post for a session, I carefully go through their gallery and choose a variety of my favorite photos that best represent the client, the session and the whole feel of the day.  So for this session that means you pretty much get to see the entire gallery because I just couldn’t narrow it down.  So fun, so colorful, so Kansas City!

Cool, Urban Family Session, West Bottoms

I do a lot of family sessions.  I also do a lot of sessions in the West Bottoms.  I think this is only my second family session in the West Bottoms though.  It was so much fun!  I love this family’s style and that they stayed true to who they were for this session.  So many times we think everyone has to be in khakis and sweaters for family photos but if that’s not who you or your kids are you wind up having portraits of strangers hanging in your home!  Mom was also super smart and included some headshots in the family session.  I get asked a lot of times if it’s ok if we do different combinations, etc. in a session.  Of course!  That’s just good business!

Extended Family Fun in Blue Springs, MO

Sometimes clients become friends.  Sometimes friends become clients.  I am so grateful for both!  This session was the latter.  These fellow hockey and Lacrosse parents and good friends asked me to do an extended family session for them and of course I couldn’t wait to help out!  Not only was it so much fun, but some beautiful memories were captured too.
