Families + Kids

Sunset Mini Maternity Session | Olathe Family Photographer

While we were out on vacation at the lake a few weeks ago I was able to squeeze in a super mini session with these two. I’m excited to see these two become parents. They have been incredible to watch interact with my son in the last year or two. One thing I never expected once becoming a parent was how much I would enjoy watching the relationships my son has with my friends or family members develop and grow. I love that they have such a fun relationship with him and I can’t wait to meet their little one and spoil him/her. I’m also incredibly excited that our kiddos will only be about a month and a half apart!

In-Home Newborn Session

It’s a boy!! I love it when I am able to do maternity and newborn sessions for people. It’s exciting getting to be a part of a couple or families journey right before they meet their little one. I was eagerly awaiting news from Robyn knowing we were getting close to her due date.

Robyn and Nathan set up the nursery with an adorable Hundred Acre Woods and Winnie the Pooh theme for the little guy to come home to.

Motherhood Minis on May 25 | Mother's Day Gift

Moms are so often the ones taking all the family photos or photos of their kids that they are rarely in them. This year I’ve decided to offer Motherhood Minis to help moms be the ones in front of the camera for once!

I am opening four spots on May 25th. 25 minute sessions for mommas and their kiddos.

In-Home Family Session | Kansas City Photographer

The more I do in-home sessions the more I love the different side you get to see of families. I’ve noticed that everyone seems to be more comfortable in front of a camera when they are in a comfortable and familiar setting. The kids are often more playful, they are more cuddly, and sometimes they’ll even bring out some of their favorite toys to show off or document. Those often make some of the best photos..kids at play with their favorite every day toys or stuffed animals. There’s nothing more comfortable than snuggled up on your own couch with mom.

I got to meet the Eick’s for the first time at their maternity session at Burr Oak Woods Nature Center. I’ve been looking forward to doing a session here for a while. I was excited when Robyn said they were willing to make the drive to try it. It did not disappoint!
