This momma and I go back 10 years now and I am so blessed to call her one of my closest friends. We have been in each others weddings and celebrated the births of each others children and I finally live close enough to see her at least once a year! This fall I made the trek up north to Kansas City to spend some time with her beautiful family and to take some fall family photos.

I cannot believe her little man is going to be one soon. Enjoy this sweet family!

Fall Family Session | Southwest Missouri Photographer

Kara — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 04:18:12 +0000

I realize the blog has been quiet lately! I am going to be catching up a few of my fall sessions that were Christmas gifts so they didn’t make the blog at the time. Nothing like some beautiful fall light to make a person smile!

I love working with fellow photographer’s, since I have moved to Southwest Missouri I haven’t had the chance to meet very many. It was a pleasure to work with Annie of Annie Patrick Photography and to meet her husband, adorable son and very large Great Dane!

Enjoy a glimpse of their beautiful family!

Thanks for looking!

Megan | Senior 2012 {Southwest Missouri Senior Photography}

Kara — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 06:13:34 +0000

It is hard for me to believe this young lady is a senior. I have known Megan for 8-9 years. It has been awesome to see her grow from a little girl into a beautiful young woman. I know the Lord has big plans for her life and I am excited to see those plans unfold. I took Megan’s photos while visiting my husband’s family in Southern Illinois. We caught a typical November day and happen to beat the rain.

Megan’s smile is infectious as is her beautiful red hair, I have no doubt by the end of these photos you will be smiling! Enjoy her sneak peek!

Thanks for looking!

King Wedding | Southwest Missouri Wedding Photography

Kara — Sat, 05 Nov 2011 01:18:28 +0000

Matt & Heather’s wedding was a beautiful event surrounded by the love of friends and family. In Heather’s dad’s speech he commented that Heather went looking for a prince and found a King. It is obvious in the way she looks at Matt that she thinks he is a king, but what is even more obvious is how much he treats her like a queen.

Enjoy some of my favorite images from the King Wedding!

Congrats to the beautiful bride and her handsome groom!

Mikayla & Cameron | Engaged {Southwest Missouri Engagement Photography}

Kara — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 02:58:48 +0000

I know some pretty passionate people. My husband is at the top of the list… until I met Cameron and Mikayla. These two are passionate people, passionate about the Lord and each other. I cannot wait to see what God has in store for them in their future together.

Enjoy photos from their engagement session, it was a BEAUTIFUL fall day with glorious golden light.

Cameron proposed by singing Mikayla a song… pretty sweet huh?!?
