How do I keep getting? {Kansas City Maternity Photographer}

Kansas City's most amazingly beautiful women in my Studio? Ms. S. was one of my first clients a few years ago, and I think I actually still have a print of her first child in my office somewhere....I remember he wore the cutest blue "jester" hat...was that mine? If so, where did I put that?

So S. is expecting her 2nd child and no baby could ask for a sweeter Mommy.

Almost done with your session.... you will be glad I bullied you into it, ROFL

More Newborn Sweetness {Kansas City Newborn Photographer}

Its been Newborn-palooza at the Studio for the last few months! But I, of course, LOVE it!

Baby A. is the newest sister of one of my fave families. Her big sis was chosen to be in the Big Book of Babies that I was published in last year....in fact, the publisher told me that image was her favorite of the whole book. :)

Perhaps the next time I am asked to contribute to a major publication, I can submit Baby A...she certainly has the "look"...gorgeous as the rest of her family!

Boudoir Goddess {Kansas City Boudoir Photographer}

OK, so not so many of my Black Label Portraiture makes it onto my blog...but this one is PG-13, so I thought I would show it off...

Isnt she stunning? She was nervous, thought she wouldnt be "good" in front of my camera....um, yeah whatever.

If she ever questions her beauty in front of me, I will make this into a billboard on I-29.

Jeans, Jewelry, Junky Munky (and me)

Come join me for a Fabulous evening of shopping, fashion and socializing, while making a difference to those children suffering with Juvenile Diabetes.

I am honored to be photographing the event on behalf of my amazing clients (and friends), Junky Munky. The girls will be revealing new styles for the coming fashion year at this event, and believe me, you want to be there!

The Market Boutique in the Briarcliff Village will be the starting point for this evening and you will be able to shop for great clothes which will make you glad that Spring is right around the corner!After the show, we will be hopping over to Tivol for an after-party, featuring some gorgeous pieces of jewelry that your hubby would love to buy for you! ;)

So, grab your girlfriends or your sweetheart and I will see you at the Show!

Another Goddess Maternity {Kansas City Maternity Photographer}

When I saw this gorgeous red fabric, I had to have it (even though I am watching my budget closely with the new Studio and all!)...then I just waited for this lovely Mommy to walk in my door.

You wouldnt believe this is not her first baby! Look how beautiful she is :)

PS: you left your shoes....dont let me steal them!

Gettin' all Anne Geddes on ya now...{Kansas City Newborn Photographer}

Baby E. got to be my guinea pig last week...he was just 7 days old and slept like a rock...we moved him everywhere! He didnt have any idea what I was doing to him...except in the hanging shot...but he trusted me (well, ok, he's pretty much hanging on for dear life, eh?)

Welcome to the world Baby E...not everyone is a crazy as I am! ;)

He Hates Hats {Kansas City Newborn Photographer}

So what did I do to him? Did I use NO hats, thereby avoiding needlessly annoying a newborn and making him scream?


Um, no...I waited til he fell asleep and started sticking them on his head with abandon....


One of MANY hat shots, poor kid....

A Pretty Pink Parasol {Kansas City Child Photographer}
