Sisters {Kansas City family photography}
They’ve been so patient while I get through this madness that is the holiday ordering period. I will definitely be posting more from this session – along with more about these three beautiful sisters – in a few weeks! But for now, here is a quick little peek of the great shots we captured. There are so many more! Enjoy …
… he melted my heart during our session and I lost it all over again during post-processing. I was so moved by the depth of his expressions. Just 3 years old, but so insightful and, true to form for any three year old boy, so inquisitive. We captured a host of great shots with mom and dad, too, but I’ll save those just in case they choose one for a holiday card. I’ve seen this vintage tractor on many occasions, but the light was never quite right for the session, until this one. And he couldn’t have been dressed more perfectly for these shots, complete with his “puppy” sidekick. We kept our vintage theme going when mom and dad pulled out his little red Radio Flyer tricycle. I’m pretty sure I let out a squeal of joy at one point when I caught a peek of an image we’d just taken on my camera. I had fun playing around with the bright colors, vintage textures and pure black and white design treatments.
Enjoy some of my all-time favorites below.
I don’t know which of the next two shots below I love the most … bold color or vintage? How about you?
I love the way mom is loving on him in the background …
This one begged for a rich black and white …
I promised this one up by midnight tonight and I think I’m actually going to make it! My good photographer friend, Jamie, and I had the pleasure of capturing wedding memories for another good friend this past weekend and this may well go down as my longest “sneak” ever on the blog. But there are simply too many beautiful shots to narrow them down.
Despite the bitter cold weather, it was a beautiful ceremony at Powell Gardens in that amazing glass chapel. We had fall colors and nature all around us. More importantly, Angie and Steve had their closest family and friends all around them as they said “I do” and welcomed in their new life as Mr. and Mrs. They were great sports when we asked for “just one more shot” without the jackets … outside. Jamie and I love everything about the wedding details, so hopefully, the images below make you feel like you were there. We’re so glad we were. Thanks, Angie, Steve and family, for inviting us to share in your big day! I’m post-processing tons more where these came from, so watch for your full gallery soon.
In case you’re wondering just how jaw-dropping his bride looked when the doors opened at the back of the chapel …. this pic says it all.
This is right before Steve went in for the big kiss …
And they walked right out of the chapel for their first quiet moments together as husband and wife … Jamie snapped these shots through the glass window and I love them. They were calling for a vintage feel and I think they capture the emotions of the moment perfectly.
Did we mention it was fuh-reeeeezing that morning?

A few of their favorite things … {Kansas City baby photography}
If you’ve ever done a session with me, you know I always try to incorporate heirlooms and unique items that are sentimental to your family or child. With this particular session, we were able to incorporate not one, but three of these elements. The sock monkeys belonged to dad and his brother when they were kids; the vintage toy box was mom and her brother’s when they were kids; and the little pink rocking chair was an heirloom from grandpa. Little Miss Anna didn’t seem to mind at all. She was busy watching closely for mom and dad to entertain her while I snapped away. What a wonderful way to spend a morning! We captured great shots of the whole family (there’s one of Anna’s uncle who was visiting below), but I won’t post any sneaks of those on the blog just in case they choose one of those for their holiday card – don’t want to spoil the surprise. In the meantime, enjoy the sparkly blue eyes and cute baby chub … it’s easy to see why they’re so enamored with her.

The next two peeks are long overdue, but hopefully sooo worth the wait! Thanks for being patient while we solved web server issues, gang. Thank goodness I have political commentary to keep me company tonight as it’s well after midnight, but our web server upload issues just got fixed. So here you go! Expect more from these sessions as I complete post-processing. And we grabbed great family shots out of both sessions, but I can’t show you those as they might just be “the” images for custom holiday cards. So stay tuned and keep watching the blog. More great sessions to come this week!
You might remember these little sweet boys from their newborn session. Well, they’re 9 months old now and really developing their own little personalities … and they’re so proud of their ability to stand up and see the world! Mom and Dad even got in on the act (there are so many more of these!).
