Ramirez Family Studio Session

This family is so very special to me. I first met mom and dad 10 years ago when they contacted me about doing engagement photos for them. I had only started my business a little less than a year earlier and was excited to do the session but also still in that newbie phase where I was nervous and hoping I could deliver the quality of photographs that I wanted to and that my clients would love. I will always remember the details of their session. It was HOT. Like over 100 degree hot. But that didn’t stop this couple from marching on and finishing the studio in multiple locations and looking cool and adorable. Stephanie made and/or brought many amazing props to personalize the session and they just made my job easy.

Since that session we have done Maternity, Gender Reveal, Extended Family, Newborn and Small Family Sessions. They have had a vision and a plan (and often new and fun location ideas and more amazing props) for each one and together we have created so many beautiful memories of their growing family. They embody everything I love about this job….capturing what is really important through the years and life as it changes and families grow.

It is only fitting that they were one of the early families to have a session in the studio this year. Not only have I captured their changes and growth, but they have been around through my little business changing and growing as well.

The Ashleys

It makes my heart so happy that when I decided to open my studio last spring, several of the first clients to try it out were good friends. I was so happy to be able to do this fun little session for Tara and her kiddos as a Father’s Day gift to her husband. Our kiddos are the same age and it’s crazy how grown up they are getting (luckily we aren’t getting any older).

Allie, 6 month Studio Session ~ Oak Grove, Mo

I have been looking forward to Allie’s session ever since her mom first contacted me.  She sent me a few photos of Allie while we were communicating back and forth and planning and she had the best, happiest little smile in every single one!  I figured it was too good to be true that she was always smiley, but when they arrived to the studio…sure enough!  She came through the door with a smile on her face and it was there until almost the very end of her session. She was an absolute doll and I can’t wait to see her again for her 1 year session!
