End of 2010!

If you had a session in 2010, please head over to facebook to join in on voting for your photo in my end of the year contest!

I appreciate all of your support over the past year. I have been truly blessed to have the opportunity to capture your memories and spend time with your families.

Just as an FYI, as we approach 2011, I will be releasing updated information on pricing and availability. My prices will have a slight increase, but not a drastic change in structure. Looking forward to seeing many of you again in the new year!

The G Family

The G Family was the very first family that I photographed after relocating to St. Louis last year and we met up again for Zachary's newborn photos. It was great to see them through my lens again this fall and see how much they've grown!

Tessa and I are both aunts to the newly born little Grady (newborn photos coming soon!) and even as we did their session, we were hoping for news of his impending arrival!






LOVE the interactions on the next three!

Color or Black and White?

We all have preferences! And sometimes you don't want someone else to decide for you. That's why I give you all or almost all of your photos in both color and black and white...so you can decide.

Which do you like better?



This is my new nephew, Grady, and there's lots more to come!

Have Fun!

Hoping to caught up on blogging and get back in the pattern of blogging sessions...I've been BUSY this fall and this blog certainly doesn't reflect that right now!

I saw the K Family last summer and we met up again just a couple of days before Brendan's first birthday.

What I LOVE about this family is they have fun together! It makes my job much much easier! I think Chris is in the running for one of the top dads that I've photographed simply because he loves to make his kids laugh and loves to play with them. Playing and laughter always results in great photos!

Here's a few from their session in Forest Park...

For Mason

To my buddy Mason,

You are a great big brother...


...to this beautiful little sister of yours.


Keep holding her hand...


...and giving her kisses...


...and she will keep looking up to you...


...because she knows you're pretty special.
