I hope you had a Merry Christmas! It has been a while since I’ve posted any recent shoots — things have been a little crazy around here, and are not letting up as we approach the new year. It’s a good place to be, though. I like to be busy, and I’m super excited for...
Yearly Archives: 2011
Anakin at the park!
He’s totally adorable, was super great to photograph, full of smiles and funny comments, and he’s the nephew of my sister- and brother-in-law! Anakin did such a great job during our photo shoot — he practiced smiling earlier in the day at Yogurtini! Here are just a few of the photos I love from our...
Maci is 1!
I can’t believe it’s been a whole year of photo shoots with little Maci! She’s the cutest, and was hilarious during her one-year session, where she got to wear her birthday outfit and play with balloons and big swirly lollipops! She always has the cutest outfit changes and tutus for her sessions. Here are a...
2011 Story Shoot: The Wilsons
Big things happened to a lot of couples and families this year. Some people, like my sister- and brother-in-law, took a leap of faith, sold the first house they bought together, moved to Kansas City, both found new jobs, and bought a beautiful and historic home. Here’s their story this year: Have you heard about...
Layne’s 2011 Story
There’s still a little time to take advantage of the Christmas portrait special this year, 2011 Story Shoots! The special ends next week, but if you’ve put off a family photo this long or still don’t know what to do about a Christmas card, I’ve got you covered! We’re doing these with super fast turnaround...
Another 2011 Story Shoot!
I got to photograph our good friends the Parsons for a 2011 Story Shoots. They have a wonderful story this year, which started out with a bunch of unknowns and questions that come with starting the adoption process. But in May, their family grew to include a tiny little baby boy… who isn’t so tiny...
What’s your story this year? (Christmas portrait special)
Happy December 1st! I just love this month — the anticipation of Christmas, and the end of the year is on the horizon. It’s always a time of joy, thankfulness, and reflection on what 2011 held. A year in the life of a family, a couple, or a child is often marked by something big...
Lisa and her sisters!
It’s the best thing to spend time with people who are so full of life. Like Lisa, who never stopped smiling during our whole shoot, who laughed a lot, and who was just a joy to photograph. People who are so full of life, like Lisa and her two sisters, Sarah and Emily — who...
Kayley and Cody are engaged!
Remember that adorable red-headed baby boy from a few posts ago? Well, the whole family is pretty awesome. Meet Aiden’s aunt Kayley. She just got engaged to (her now-fiancee) Cody, and I was so excited to take their photos! Kayley and I have both volunteered with HOBY, an amazing youth leadership program, for years and...
