Just a summer goddess and her sweet family, about to grow by one! We all endured the moist Missouri evening and they managed to smile, laugh, and pose for me in spite of the temps. And look how green our lovely field was! I guess humidity is good for *something*. 😩🄓
Sweet mama C— I cannot wait to meet your newest little one in a few weeks!

ANNOUNCEMENT:
I’m opening up a small number of March Mini Sessions! March in Missouri begins to have some lovely days but isn’t yet green enough for nature backdrops, so these sessions will have more of an ā€œurbanā€ feel to them—think graffiti walls, cute shop-lined streets, funky alleyways. I can steer us to any number of perfect spots based on where you live and the vibe you’re interested in.

Check out these past examples of urban sessions I’ve done: you’ll see families, couples, high school seniors, toddlers—if you’re reading this, YOU are a perfect fit for this style of session! Reach out and let’s chat!

Mini Sessions are 30 minutes long and you’ll receive 12 final images delivered digitally. Spring 2026 pricing: Fri/Sat/Sun Minis- $300. M/T/W/Th Minis- $250. I have weekend availability as well as Spring Break availability. Message or email me ([email protected]) to inquire about specific dates and grab one of these limited spots!

Three siblings, three newborn sessions…. Three amazing little souls who are such bright lights in this world! It is ALWAYS a profound honor to be asked back into a client’s home to photograph their next baby… ALWAYS. Thank you, B family, for bringing me back not just once, but twice now. 🄰🄰🄰

Just finishing edits on these handsome boys' 2-year photos. Come on with that fire truck in the photo!!! Thank you, City Museum!! And to further delight my readers, I've included four more photos of these babies going back in time all the way to their newborn session. How lucky am I to get to watch babies grow into independent and curious little kids? And beyond? Can't wait for their next session when these boys turn three! ♄♄

It’s senior season, friends! Class of ā€˜26!!! And guess what? I have one of these seniors myself— my firstborn kiddo. So this year, the sessions hit a little closer to my heart…. And this shot is one of my favorite ones from last month’s amazing session with Allie in Illinois. Kind of magical!!
So who needs senior photos for their kiddo?? Message me (I’m better with email😬) and mention this photo and I’ll give you 10% off of your senior session. Because I’m just a tender-hearted mama of these kids, too. šŸ„¹šŸ„ŗšŸ’•
