The big green ugly l Kansas City family photographer
At least that’s the nickname my truly talented photographer friend, Carmen, gave to this old rockstar thrift store find. Thank you so much, Carmen!
That said, there’s absolutely nothing ugly about this beautiful family.
I was so committed to using this on one of our last good Fall days that I rearranged the garage to fit my husband’s truck all the way in with couch in back and truck bed down the night before. At 11 p.m. I’m a lot of things … often crazy … slightly messy … but obsessive/compulsively fiercely committed to a vision once it enters my head.
Enjoy this sneak peek of their session – I honestly couldn’t pick just a few favorites, so I closed my eyes and just hovered the mouse over a handful. Watch for one more session on the Big Green Ugly, then more vintage red velvet.
Lastly, Taylor: Guess whose images I’m working on right now? (wink)









Kami: Just wondering if you know where the mom’s sweater in this picture was purchased. I love how it photographs and noticed it in another picture that you took.
Hi Tanya — The sweater is from The Buckle. I think it photographs really well, too!
Hi Kami! I have been admiring your work as well as another photographer also named Kami! It helps give me some ideas and inspiration as well as outfit choices for my own girls. Do you know where the outfits the little girls are wearing are from? They are adorable! Thanks!
Thanks, Kim! I ‘think’ those sweaters are from Gap Kids. I had another client who’s daughter also had that and I have written in my session planning notes that it was Gap Kids.
