Landon {milestone} + {family} Session

Landon's mama Rachel was my very first session in Columbia and I've absolutely loved watching Landon grow ever since! He turned one at the beginning of the summer and we had so much fun capturing his busy little personality! Happy birthday Landon!

Landon {milestone} and {family} Session

I was so happy to get sweet Landon back in my studio after doing his woodland themed newborn session six months ago! He's such a happy bright-eyed little man! His mama and daddy brought a cute vintage sled that looked so cute with my holiday set! I'm loving starting to get my Columbia babies back for new sessions!!

Just look how much Landon has grown in six months! Can't wait to see you again at a year!!

Gia {newborn} Session

Oh sweet little Georgiana Rose was such a joy to photograph! She looked divine in lavender and we threw in a few fall colors for good measure! I can tell she is going to be a very loved and happy little girl with a mama and daddy who adore her!

Zach {newborn} Session

Arriving a few weeks ahead of schedule little Zack had a bit of a rough start to life, but through the steadfast faith of his parents and prayers of those who loved him he came home happy and healthy a few days before he was even due to make his appearance. I was so thrilled to capture his newborn photos once home in Holts Summit and even more excited when mama said daddy was a Star Wars fan!

Little Zack is sure to have great things ahead for "the Force is strong with this one!" =)

Rebecca {maternity} Session

I met the beautiful Rebecca and her husband at Shelter Gardens in Columbia, Mo for some lovely maternity photos in the setting sun. They are expecting a baby girl any day now and I can't wait for her newborn session!

Reagan {newborn} session

Reagan's mama and I went to college together and she was even my wedding planner many Octobers ago so I was thrilled when she asked me to come and take Reagan's newborn photos! Big brother was just celebrating his second birthday and he took a break from his cookie for a couple of quick shots but mostly he was attached to mama!

They are such a cute little family of four!

Landon {newborn} Session

I was so excited to get sweet little Landon in front of my lens just weeks after his mama's maternity session! Mama, Rachel, sent me pictures of his sweet woodland themed nursery and I immediately knew what direction to take this session! Landon was a perfect little fox and I loved every second of his newborn session!

Arin {maternity} session

I was so thrilled to photograph the amazing Arin last week. Arin is a local massage therapist and Yoga instructor and these fun and fearless pictures are a perfect representation of her as she carries her third child. We found a perfect place overlooking Cathedral Rock and Arin got her Yoga on. We even had a few hikers stop and comment on how fabulous this Yoga Mama was!

Thanks for sharing your bump and your talent with me Arin!

Gina Maternity

I can't even begin to explain how awesome Gina was to work with! She hiked easily out to Red Rock Crossing to capture these amazing images. She was rocking her gorgeous bump in Yoga poses and classic maternity poses as well! What a powerful mama!

The best part? I have ANOTHER maternity session with this fabulous mama before her little man enters the world, so there is more awesomeness to come!
