Wishing you all a very special and happy Christmas! I hope you all take the time to love the people around you, celebrate life, and eat good food that makes your heart and tummy happy. And if you have a dog, cuddle him or her and pass along a hello from Petey.

What Christmas looks like at my house.
I love giving gifts, decorating, baking cookies, heartwarming movies, and spending time with family and friends. So I love the holidays, especially Christmas. Maybe it’s just me, but this year I feel like Christmas just came out of nowhere and caught me by surprise. With a really busy spring, summer, and fall the time just...
Troy’s little sister Maribelle!
I’ve been photographing Troy for almost a year now… I think we started around 4 months and I’ve taken photos of him and his family since then. Now, he has a new baby sister with the sweetest name (and disposition). I met Maribelle for her newborn session at home, which was decorated for Christmas. How...
Avery is full of smiles!
Little Avery was such a cutie for our whole session — full of smiles and giggles! She’s about 10 months old, and I got to take photos of her with her parents just in time for Christmas. We did most of the session inside their house, since the weather was chilly and some snow was...
Little Beckett is a great model!
I had an awesome photography mentoring session with the super sweet Kristin. We talked about everything — from technical camera stuff to business-related things and everything in between! I’m always glad to share what I know about photography and help other people get started, whether it’s a mom who just wants to learn how to...
Family photos… with gingerbread cookies.
Sarah really wanted her family portraits outside this year, so we rescheduled a few times to get the best possible December-in-Missouri weather, and I’m so glad we did! We ended up with a sunny, 50-degree day — perfect for outdoor photos! The boys are so incredibly cute, and they were so great during the session...
Maci’s Newborn Photos
Maci is the sweetest… at just a week and a half old, I got to meet her in her home and take photos of her. I love how cozy and cuddly these look — perfect for the chilly December weather outside. Merry Christmas, Maci!
Overland Park Family Photos!
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: I love photographing families in their homes! It’s the best way to really help tell a story about a family, when the backdrop isn’t something fake or bland, but their own home, with their furnishings, decorations, and the rooms they bond in every day. I got...
Cans for Comments Results!
You all have been AMAZING to help me in the Cans for Comments drive here on the blog. I have so enjoyed reading your little notes on the posts in the past two weeks, and I’m super excited to share with you that we beat last year’s record! This year, you helped me raise a...
Whitney and Mike’s Wichita Wedding!
My last wedding of 2010 was a great one. Celebrating with Whitney and Mike as they committed their lives to one another was a really fun way to round out the 2010 wedding season. Whitney and Mike are such sweet people, who were SO excited to get married — I think I heard more “Yay!!...
