Brett and Emily’s Messenger Coffee Engagement session was absolutely perfect for a cold and rainy day.  I always recommend that couples choose meaningful locations for their sessions, and Messenger Coffee is one of Brett and Emily’s favorite Kansas City Coffee Shops!  Following Emily on Instagram, I’ve seen many coffee dates in her Insta-Stories.  I’m thrilled […]

An engagement session in Weston, Missouri has been on my wish list for a while now.  When Jessica and Jesse asked about having their engagement session at Weston Bend State Park and historic Downtown Weston, I was thrilled!  The blooming red buds and the large Tobacco Barn combined to give us a gorgeous back drop […]

If the colors at Loose Park are any indication, Spring has arrived in Kansas City.  Garrett and Lindsey’s Loose Park and Downtown Kansas City engagement session couldn’t have landed on a more beautiful day.  From the green grass to the pink and purple flowers, Loose park was the perfect spot to document their engagement.  Their […]

If you ask if you can bring your dog to your engagement session, my answer is always yes!  I can’t promise your pup will be as well behaved as sweet little Mila was. 🙂  Nick and Kristine chose early spring in Kansas City for their engagement session.  The grass was just starting to turn green […]

This beautiful Kansas City Winter Engagement will melt your heart, but probably not all the snow.  🙂 When I met Jason and Mary Ellen last fall, they asked if I’d be willing to shoot their engagement photos in the snow.  After I did a little happy dance, I said absolutely!  I’ve been wanting to shoot […]

I met with Jarod on his family’s property in Smithville, MO last fall for his senior session.  I love that he wanted pictures of his family’s home, and to showcase the beautiful property they live on.  We spent the afternoon walking the property, finding unique spots, and capturing his photos in a location that meant […]

Styled shoots were one of my first steps into the world of wedding photography.   They’re a great way to collaborate and get new content for my portfolio.  When I found out about this tea party styled wedding shoot, I was thrilled!  For those of you not familiar with what a styled shoot is, I can […]

It was a hot one at this Loose Park Family Photo Session.  Almost 100 degrees hot!  Little Sammy just turned two and had a great time getting us to chase him around the park.  This family had so much energy and was so easy going.  Sammy gave me a work out but it was worth […]
