Emma + Maddie [St. Louis Children's Photographer]

I'm sure you're all used to seeing these two plaster my blog, but their mom likes to get their pictures taken and so does their aunt...which is me! And now that they live closer, I get the chance to photograph everything!

This particular weekend was actually for Emma's 18 month session and we snuck in Maddie because she had a cute outfit too!

I just love this series! I'm seriously this funny...I just want you all to know that! (Or so a 3-year-old thinks!)










At the end of our shoot, Grammy let us pick apples off of the apple tree. And while this is just a quick, casual shot I wanted for myself, I just love the way it turned out and captured the moment!

Igal, Kasie, Aidan + Bella [St. Louis Family Photographer]

This beautiful family had the perfect morning to spend at Forest Park. Great weather + a fantastic backdrop allowed us to get some gorgeous shots!

Igal, Kasie, Aidan + Bella--I hope you enjoy the pictures and I was so happy to meet you! Can't wait to do it again soon.



Pretty sweet! Aidan is such a wonderful big brother!

Sneak Peek: Levi [St. Louis Photographer]

We had a wonderful weekend camping with the family! And I even got sneak in a quick session with the cutest guy there (sorry Josh!). Levi just turned 4 months and has grown soooo much! Can't wait to share more with you!

Miss Kaylee [St. Louis Newborn Photographer]

A full head of hair and oh-so-cute, Kaylee did perfectly for her newborn session and was so laid back. She seriously let us do anything we needed to to get her to pose and made it way to easy on us! Happy Friday everyone!





I told you...lots of hair!

Sneak Peek: Introducing Karly [St. Louis Newborn Photographer]

"A wee bit of heaven drifted down from above, a handful of happiness, a heart full of love."
-Helen Steiner Rice

I made a very special trip back home today to visit one of my favorite families and to meet the newest addition--Miss Karly! She's perfect from her head to her toes and I can't imagine any family loving her as much as she is loved now!

Heather, Don, Jacob, Kirby + Kelly--congratulations on such a beautiful and heaven-sent little girl! I can't wait to watch her grow with you as part of your family...you are so truly blessed! Enjoy your sneak peek of Karly...much more to come!

Sneak Peek: Amanda's Bridal Shower [St. Louis Wedding Photographer]

The day got a little brighter yesterday as I got to spend it with a wonderful family celebrating Amanda + AJ's upcoming wedding! The surprise bridal shower was a hit. Here's a quick sneak peek.

The lovely bride and her girls.

Engaged: Maureen + Ben [St. Louis Wedding Photographer]

I've been waiting for this moment...to capture these pictures...for quite some time! And I couldn't be happier for Maureen + Ben! There's something about capturing such wonderful people in a natural state...and that's what the evening held for us in late August! Beautiful light, sweet love + life truly captured just as it was.

Introducing AJ [St. Louis Newborn Photographer]

This little guy captured my heart and was as perfect as perfect gets for his session. He was so relaxed (as you can see from a few of the pictures!) and tolerant of us being in his world for a few hours! Thanks for making this look easy AJ!

Sneak Peek: The S. Family [St. Louis Family Photographer]

We got started just in time this morning before the heat hit! A quick sneak peek of the great light and beautiful family I got to start my day with! More to come soon!



Isn't she a doll?!
