As a family photographer in Washington, MO, I always welcome pets to be included into family pictures. A photo session with the family pet is always a good idea! Happiness is a warm puppy and a grassy field in the soft light at the end of a summer’s day. I have been photographing this family […]

Baby Mark was a super adorable sweet sleepy newborn! He was perfect at his Complete Newborn Session and caught some zzzz’s while I snapped away. I like to see newborns in studio when they are between 7-14 days old so I can capture these curly poses. Therefore, we keep the studio nice and warm so […]

This sunset maternity session is nothing short of stunning! Oh. My. Goodness! Our first win: scheduling these pictures at Klondike Park in St. Charles County. It has a beautiful lake, white sand beaches, rock bluffs and greenery everywhere you look, even more so during the spring and summer. The second win: the family selecting apparel […]

So this sunset outdoor session contains some of my most favorite people on the planet! They have been friends of mine for years, and I love watching their boys grow up in front of my camera. Sometimes shooting my family and close friends is challenging but not with this group. It was such an easy […]

Walker had the best time celebrating with a Pooh Birthday Session! The special day actually starts with the non-cake portion. We have fun with different props and by looking at these images, you can tell this rough-and- tumble sweetie is all boy…cars, fishing, overalls. That soft smile, however, will melt a momma’s heart for sure! […]

This airplane birthday session not only featured Louie taking part in a fun cake smash, but is also captured his beautiful family! Clients have the option to add family photos to their baby’s first birthday session and most take advantage of it. They don’t stay little for long, therefore, it’s wonderful to have these memories […]

This Boho Newborn Session was adorable! Miss Darcy Rae is 8 weeks old in these images. What?! Normally I schedule these sessions when baby is between 7-14 days because I can capture the sleepy, curly images that all parents love. In this case, however, I was able to accomplish that and more because baby is […]

One of my goals is to capture a big brother’s love at his baby sister’s session when I have a sweet family like this in studio! Most older siblings are very helpful to me as they hug and kiss baby when asked. This little guy nailed it, didn’t he! It makes my job so much […]

Thank you to all of the beautiful moms-to-be, who attended our Second Annual Baby Love Event 2020! It was an amazing turnout and so wonderful to meet some new faces and see many existing clients. The beautiful thing about being a photographer that doesn’t specialize in one specific category, I am blessed to see couples […]

Baby Haley was super adorable and awake during her Perfectly Pink Newborn Session! I do catch some babies with their eyes open for some images but that is more the exception than the rule. This family was lucky to get both sleepy and awake pictures of little Ms. Haley! I like to see newborns in […]

Luke and Megan had a beautiful evening for their Winter Engagement Session at Klondike Park. I. LOVE. THIS. PARK! The white sand is magical against the crips foliage and golden sun. I have NEVER had a bad session at this location and can’t imagine I ever will. It’s the perfect place for engagement and family […]
