Harper and Colette

Harper and Colette Hey friends! I'm Melissa Loren, mama to Henry Harper and Luce Colette (the inspiration behind my new aspiration!) and life partner to the handsome Sean Casey.

This page started out as a blog many, many years ago, and while I still blog, this page has transformed into a platform for my aspiring photography business! This is where I share photo sneaks, photo tips, blog posts and the occasional life ramblings. I was born and raised in Kansas City, this will always be home. I love top knots, iced lattes and my family. You can contact me here, via email or via phone-I'm always here to answer your questions!

I know it’s been a while. Posting seems like such a chore these days. I’m kind of just living on a prayer, hoping the right people keep finding me and keep booking me. 🤍🙏🏼

I’m so thankful for every family that trusts me to capture their memories, whether it’s your first session or your tenth. It never stops being an honor.

I’ll have an editing list update soon. ✨

What. A. Weekend.

Am I right?! Holy moly. Grateful for those long weekends with friends and family.

That’s what it’s all about, isn’t it? It’s back to the grind though. I don’t share as much of my personal life anymore because it always seemed to make me feel guilty or worried that people thought I wasn’t working on their galleries. Rest assured, I’m about 92% work. Which is almost a fault. Still, editing is such a PROCESS, so it never fails that I’m a little behind. Even without holiday weekends. I promise I’m working so hard and diligently!!!

Some sessions mean a little more.

Watching these kids grow year after year is a reminder that love never stops growing, even through life’s hardest chapters. Grateful to help preserve these moments, one year at a time. 🤍

Always taking pictures, rarely is a camera not in my hands.
