Newborn Baby K - Photography: Strafford, MO

I first "met" Baby K a few weeks ago when I did his mom's maternity pictures. I was eagerly awaiting his arrival and I finally got to really meet him earlier this week. He was almost 3 weeks old and was a wonderful model!

Newborn Baby A - Photography: Strafford, MO

Last week, The C's brought Baby A to her first photography session. Miss A is a fourth of July baby and was nine days old. I learned quickly that she is not a fan of sleeping! bless her poor mom and dad! None the less, we did get some great shots of her :)

Downtown - Children's Photography: Springfield, MO

This week I had a great time photography 3 adorable kids in downtown Springfield. We pounded the pavement for several blocks around the square. It was a really fun session. The kids were a dream! All three were very well behaved and really great listeners. It was the first time using my newest lens, so it was a great learning experience for me. Happy to say that I got some really great shots!!!

"Newborn" Twins - Photography: Strafford, MO

I met the twin's mom on babycenter.com before I even began my photography business. I was just looking for a mom in my area who had a newborn that I could practice on. L contacted me and said that she had newborn boy/girl twins who were in the NICU and when they got out she wanted me to do a photo shoot with them. Turns out Baby Co and Baby Ch have quite a heroic story. They were born on February 24th  at 27 weeks and spent almost 2 months in the NICU. Both were under 3 lbs at birth, and the day of the shoot, nearly 4 months old, they weighed in at 7lbs 8oz and 6lbs 15oz. I have a special place in my heart for NICU babies (and their parents), and it was truly an HONOR to photograph them and give their parents this gift. They are a blessing and I am thrilled to play just a very small role in capturing the memory of their infancy.

Newborn Baby J - Photography: Strafford, MO

My very first newborn shoot was the most fun I've had as a photographer so far. I could just tell the whole time that the shots were turning out great! I could not wait to get them on my computer so I could see them full size, and when I did,  I was not disappointed. Baby J was a dream! He was pretty alert when he first got here, and it took him a good hour to settle down and fall asleep, but once he did it was easy peasy. Thank you, Amanda, for letting me photograph your beautiful baby boy!

Maternity Session - Photography: Strafford, MO

I had the pleasure of photographing a very pregnant mama and her family last week. It was a fun session and my first maternity. Little Mr. K was not loving the camera at all but Dad managed to bribe him into a few smiles. (still want to know how he did it, cause he was good!) And Little Miss K was a pleasure and always ready to show me her smile.

Sisters! - Photography: Rolla, MO

Yesterday I met beautiful Miss L and her adorable sister, Miss A. There is no doubt that Miss A marches to the beat of her own drum, but we were able to get some wonderful shots of her regardless! And Miss L was always ready to shoot me that GORGEOUS smile! It was a pleasure meeting you ladies :)
