First Birthday Portraits [Kansas City Baby Photographer}

 What fun to photograph this baby girl for her first birthday. She's such a pretty little thing and her parents are so in love with her! It was a warm winter day so we even went outside for a little while.

At Center Stage Photography, we love to photograph babies, and have special pricing and collections designed with the parents of babies in mind. Our baby photography division is Little Stars by Center Stage Photography.

We have nearly 7 years of experience photographing babies in the Kansas City and Overland Park areas.

Adorable 6-month-old - Kansas City Baby Photographer

This little man was quite the challenge - barely 6-month-old, he just wanted to try to stand up! His parents are in trouble! Luckily I did manage to capture some great faces in between his attempts to move! What an adorable baby boy. Thank you, as always, Christina and Jason - I appreciate you so much!

I have special "Baby's First Year" sessions - contact me for details!

Baby Love - Kansas City Baby Photography

 I absolutely love photographing babies who are newly sitting on their own - 6-8 months old, before they can crawl, and before they become frightened of my studio lights. They make the most adorable faces. As you know, I prefer things simple and modern - I like to produce images that will never look dated, and that aren't cluttered with props and loud backdrops - none of that is needed with beauty like this!

This baby was such fun to photograph, and the daughter of one a wonderful client. Thanks, Wendy, for choosing Center Stage to photograph your newest baby girl.

 

Absolutely Precious - Kansas City Newborn Portrait Photographer

What a treat it was to photograph this sweet little girl, and her proud parents. What a little doll!

 

Baby's First Christmas - Kansas City Baby Photographer

I photographed this darling little man in December to celebrate his first Christmas. Absolutely love working with this family; and I love photographing babies!

Another beautiful baby boy - Kansas City Newborn Photographer

Isn't he beautiful! I so enjoyed photographing this little man back in December. More "branching out" for me. I still love those black blanket images I've done for years; but enjoying changing things up, too!

Sleeping is a waste of her time - Kansas City Newborn Photographer

This sweet little thing barely slept at all during her newborn session - probably the least sleepy baby I've ever worked with. Her parents say she's like that and recounted one day when she barely slept at all. Well, it all worked out anyway, because I was able to get some wonderful awake portraits of this little missy - isn't she a doll?

Thank you, Karen and Jason, for choosing me to photograph your baby girl. Gallery ready soon!

I love twins! - Kansas City Newborn Photographer

I had a bit of a shock the other day when I got a call from Patricia telling me she and her husband, Rudy, had just had twins - I photographed their first daughter two years ago when she was just three weeks old but it sure does not seem that long ago. Of course, it means so much to me that they brought their twins for a session - these little people (a boy and a girl) were only 10 days old when I photographed them on Sunday. What an awesome experience!

Twin newborn sessions can be difficult and long - but with the the help of photographer Terra Herring, who assisted me with the session, it all went smoothly and quickly! (in and out in two hours - great for any newborn session, let alone twins).

Thank you, Rudy and Patricia for trusting me, again, to photograph your children - I appreciate you! Gallery coming soon.

6-month-old beauty - Kansas City Baby Photographer

I have photographed this baby's mother so many times - she is a professional dancer and teacher, and so it was a special treat to get to do this little girl's six-month portraits - she's as beautiful as her mommy! Isn't she just the sweetest thing?

Thanks, Allison and Aaron - she's a beauty!

Finally - a little one! - Kansas City Newborn Photography

In the last year, almost all of the newborns I have photographed have been in the 8.5-11 pound range. And while I truly love those chunky monkeys, for variety's sake it was nice to have this little missy in my studio this week. Seven pounds is actually quite "medium" for a newborn, but to me, she seemed so tiny!

Her parents are excellent to work with - I'm so sad they will be moving soon since dad Ed is graduating in May from an Army graduate school at Fort Leavenworth.

Christi and Ed - thank you so much for choosing me to photograph your sweet baby girl!

 

Happy Birthday, JP! - Kansas City Baby Portraits

Amber (and family!) brought JP for birthday portraits last week. It's amazing how time flies - it seems like just a short time ago that I was photographing his beautifully-pregnant mommy at my studio. This one was a special one for me - I got to spend a little bit of time with him on his actual birthday! Along came mom, dad, their dog, Grandma, his aunt and cousin, too! It was a party in my studio!

Thank you, Amber, for being such a great client over the last year. You are special to me!

 

  

This one makes me laugh! He tried to crawl away, but became "stuck" in the cake, 

which did not make him happy! But I love it.
