Shannon, Carrie, & Blair

Republic, MO (In-Studio)

Once again, I had the pleasure of having Shannon & Carrie in my studio along with the beautiful girl, Blair.  One of the greatest parts for me offering Baby's first year packages is allowing me the chance to really get to know the families and then of course, being allowed to watch the babies grow!

Here are a few favorites from Blair's 4 month session...

Scott, Zenobia, & Lydia

Republic, MO (In-Studio)

  Scott and Zenobia came to see me for the first time shortly after Lydia was born.  And I was ecstatic to get to see her again, and oh my she is getting so big and oh, oh, oh so cute!!!!!  Here are a few favorites from their Holiday mini shoot...

Kaile

Downtown Springfield, MO

I was so happy to finally have the chance to do this session, especially since Kaile's mom purchased the session at an auction that was held back in May.  I had donated a large portrait package to help raise money for the new Northwest Greene County Kiwanis Club in which I am a proud member.  The auction was a huge success and I was thrilled to have been a part of it!

Kaile, who is a senior this year at Ash Grove High School, wanted to wait until the fall colors were in place before we did the session, and I definitely feel we succeeded in making that happen!  It was a little on the chilly side the morning we had the session, but nonetheless, Kaile was a trooper and did an amazing job.

Here are a few of the favorites from the session...  (Kaile's sister hoped in a few of the photos as well!!!)

Brian + Ashley + Kimberlyn

Republic, MO (In-Studio)

As with most every year come holiday time, things got a little hectic for me and my photography world.  I kind of didn't stay on top of the blogging like I normally like to do so I am using my day back at work today to play a little bit of catch up.  I can't think of a better place to start then with this beautiful family!

Brian and Ashley came to see me in the fall as they were still expecting their beautiful daughter Kimberlyn.  We spent most of the time in the studio but as luck would have it, it was a gorgeous day in Missouri that day, so we also were able to venture outside for a few at the end.

Here are a few favorites from their maternity session...

And then came little Miss Kimberlyn!!!  Beautiful baby girl!  And yes, look closely, her mama had already gotten started on painting those cute little toenails and fingernails : )

I always love putting together these newborn collages!!!

Hallie

Republic, MO (in studio)

I am having the absolute joy and honor of getting to know Hallie and her parents and watch her grow through her first year!  She is just absolutely beautiful and oh my goodness....all I have to do is look at her and that smile just glows from ear to ear!!!!!

Here are some favorites from her 3 month session...

I can't wait to see you again very soon Miss Hallie!!!!!!!
