When choosing a location for your engagement or lifestyle session, or even portraits on your wedding day, think about places that are out of the ordinary. Places that are meaningful to you: maybe a place you met, where you like to spend your free time, where he proposed, or something sweet to your story. For […]

About two months before your wedding, we are meeting for consult #2 to go over your timeline, details and to help compile your family formal shot list. The better organized we can be before the wedding day, the more you can relax and enjoy your guests on the big day. Over the 10+ years I’ve been […]

A little bit of romance, and a whole lot of fun! Matt, my awesome friend with Hawleywood Films tied the knot with his very own dream girl this past weekend, October 7, 2016 at Abe and Jake’s Landing in Lawrence, Kansas. A pretty cool night club turned event space that runs along the river in […]

I can not say enough words to justify how amazing my clients are. Every one of them i’m so grateful for. I’m a lucky photographer truly, that I don’t have a lot of messy stories to tell, but only beautiful stories, of really rare and divine couples who are so good to each others families, […]

If only every session could be as fun as this one. I think we laughed and giggled 80% of it. Tresa and Quinn are such a light and they reflect CRAZY happiness together. I seriously love these two. Congratulations. Can’t thank you enough for being excited about having us along for your big day!

Erica & Peter, married Sept 4, 2016 at Timber Barn in Weston, Missouri Sometimes, most of the time, I can’t find the words to do justice how awesome a couple is and how awesome they are to me. Erica & Peter are one of those. They are just so sincerely sweet in every way. And […]

Aug 11, 2016 | “I hold your hand in my hand, much as I hold your heart in my heart.” – Molly Cornelison I know God is always present at weddings, but at Molly & Brad’s wedding at Piney River Ranch in Vail, Colorado, he thought he’d show off just a little bit. With a double […]

Alas!! The extravagant, intricate, warm and fuzzy Mount Rainier wedding of Chelsea & Justin on July 30, 2016, has been blogged. With so many intimate personal touches and really great things happening, surrounded by so many wonderful friends, family, and the mountains, this one was SUPER hard to blog. My goal is to post about […]

I’ve been waiting for the time I got to photograph Matt and his awesome beautiful Kim. It’s his turn now after videoing Philip and my wedding a couple years ago in the Rocky Mountains. Matt has been my go-to videographer in Kansas City and a super great friend for MANY years. We went to high […]

If anyone can pull off a Beloved engagement session in the Kansas City summer heat, topping at 100 degrees, it would be these two! Besides the heat (or maybe including the heat? wink), this session represented exactly the relationship they have. Fun, fashionable, and relaxed as they picnic-ed at their favorite picnic spot in Kansas City, […]

Happy second birthday to my beautiful little friend, Christina. I LOVE my little friends. They are my favorites. When you ask her how old she is, she’s two, but four fingers definitely go up. I love it. Thanks for being so adorable on a perfect summer night at golden hour. Holding hands with you walking […]

Rachel & Jon in all honesty, do NOT know how to take a bad photograph. They are both just flawless. He a fireman, she a nurse. Sweethearts for over 10 years, married on Rachel’s parent’s anniversary… its quite the fairy tale. Their setting, their overall theme and their floral design is just what every girl […]

5.23.16 | Two weeks ago (born 5.9.16 just before midnight, almost two different birthdays) I got to document these two little snuggle bugs as they made their way into the world. This week, I got to visit mommy and daddy and all the girls again. The newborn twins changed so much just in these few […]

I love photographing couples at places that mean something to them. Places where they spend their time or where they grew up. For Kelly & Sara, they loved being outdoors at Loose Park with their puppies, it’s the neighborhood Sara grew up in, and they love this park! (As we all do right)? One of the […]

Spring is here and colors are everywhere, the dogs love being outdoors and the beautiful midwest sunsets are back. Amanda & Gene claimed they weren’t photogenic nor good at PDA. I beg to differ. What a fun colorful Beloved engagement session at Prairie Fire this week. To the weather, please stay around. You are amazing […]
