Rachel and Ryan’s Outdoorsy Engagement Session
They love natural scenery. They love K-State. They love each other. They love Mexican food.
We’re going to get along great.
I met up with Rachel and Ryan to capture some relaxed, fun portraits of them for their engagement session. They told me they wanted them to be natural, earthy, and unposed. I think we...
Kim and Dan’s Engagement Session in Lawrence!
Kim and Dan had all sorts of fun locations in mind for their engagement shoot — things that had personal meaning for them, were a part of their story, and also had great backdrops for photos! We met up in Lawrence, where they live and where Kim went to school. We started at South Park...
Meredith and Mike’s Engagement: KU campus and 1950s-themed fun!
When Meredith first told me that she wanted her engagement session to include a 1950s-themed portion, I knew we’d get along well. Meredith loves cooking, which was evident the second I stepped into their kitchen to see all sorts of cooking gadgets, spices, cookbooks, and fun utensils that I tend to “need” any time I...
Engagement Session in the Rain: Luke and Erika
Luke and Erika’s engagement session at her parents’ home near De Soto, Kansas, was rainy — but perfect for the setting. I loved how the rain and clouds gave the photos an extra romantic feel.

Engagement in Kansas City’s River Market Area: Sarah and Paul
When Sarah first e-mailed me about her wedding photography after finding me in an online search and asked if I went to HOBY, I knew we were going to get along. Sarah attended the same youth leadership seminar that I still volunteer with (and how I met Jeff) — which is an awesome...
Kansas City Engagement Photos in Westport: Yen and Christopher
Yen and Christopher met up with me in the Westport area of Kansas City for a super sweet photo shoot on a chilly afternoon. Luckily, Yen is a trooper and still wore her super cute dress and amazing heels. I love it when girls get girly for their engagement sessions!
I also love shooting...

They’re stylish. They’re fun. They’re completely adorable together. They’re in love. They’re Colleen and Tobie, and I can’t tell you how excited I am that I get to photograph their wedding this summer. It was so great to photograph their engagement session this past weekend, and despite the unexpected chilly weather, they were...
