Family Session | Monett, MO Photographer

I really enjoyed spending time with this family. We took these portraits on the family farm and mimi and grandpa joined us for a few shots! Agriculture runs deep in this families roots so of course a shot of the footwear was necessary!

I always love when mom and dad want to take photos together! I love the few photos that are around of my parents no matter how posed or cheesy they are, I adore them!

I love this photo on the top right, I of course have a photo where all three boys are smiling and looking perfect but I LOVE this image. I think this is what life for this family is like on a daily basis!

Hello BROWN eyes! Did your heart melt a bit? I know mine did! I love when my clients have a vision, share it with me, and we pull it off!

Thanks for looking!!

I was able to meet up with this fantastic family early this week for some updated family photos. I was amazed at how big their kids were considering the youngest was just pulling up during the last session.

beautiful family + great location = lots of fun!

Leap Day Wedding | Southwest Missouri Wedding Photography

I had the honor and privileged of second shooting Megan and Geoff’s wedding with Nichole Moore of Nichole Moore Photography on Leap Day. It was an awesome wedding with great weather at a beautiful location, The Mayo Hotel in Tulsa. To top it off it was apparent to everyone that the bride and groom are very much in love! My favorite was the first look before the ceremony. Such a sweet special moment, so thankful I was able to be apart of and record that moment for the rest of their lives!

See for yourself how beautiful these two are!

This weather has been amazing! It was so nice to be out in the beautiful sunshine doing something I love! It was great to meet the “F” family and have the opportunity to take some shots of their children! It was fun to do a sibling session and not have to chase anyone around like I have to when I take photos of my own children! I had such a hard time narrowing it down to my “favorites”. I could have blogged their entire session but for now I will just post these few!

It is hard to believe it is still Winter! We have been trying to find the perfect date on the calendar to fit this session in and today was the day! Beautiful sunshine and a beautiful family, what more could you ask for as a photographer? Oh wait, I also get to call them friends so that makes me doubly blessed! This is one awesome family, it was great to get them in front of the camera but I confess I had a hard time narrowing a few down for the blog!

I love how this combination of photos scream “ornery, yet sweet little boy” and “big, beautiful girl!”

Doesn’t this look like life with a 2 year old and a 5 year old Fun times!

Thanks for looking!

Between the whipping wind and the bright sun we had a hard time finding just the right spot for photos. Once we got the location down little Miss A let her personality shine! I have no doubt she brings smiles to the faces of all she meets!

Thanks for checking this cutie out!

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!
