Family Studio Session - Kansas City Portrait Photographer

I have the most difficult time choosing preview images for my blog when I do a session like this - a family session with a bunch of very attractive people with two different backdrops and lots of variations of who is in the portrait - I'm just not good at choosing! Debbi's family is incredibly photogenic so really, I can't go wrong with any image I choose - goodness, even the dog is photogenic! Anyway, here's your preview, Debbi and family. I really appreciate you choosing Center Stage for your family portraits.

Looks can be deceiving - Kansas City Newborn Photographer

From the look of her in these images, you would think this baby girl sleeps all of the time. But you would be wrong. In fact, the first time I photographed her, she barely slept at all! Which is why I had the pleasure to hang out with Wendy and Tim twice this week (which was actually very enjoyable!). You see, this tiny little angel gave me a very difficult time on Monday, so she returned on Thursday and was so snuggly and peaceful - easy as pie the second time around.

Wendy - I'm so happy you found me - it's been an honor.

Senior Portraits and a Family Session, too! - Kansas City Senior Portraits

Last week I had a great time photographing this family in a local park, which also served as a senior portrait session for older daughter Cari, who is visiting from Michigan. We had a lot of fun despite the heat, and I'm happy to show this preview. Looking forward to showing you the rest!

Thank you for choosing Center Stage!

Family Studio Session - Kansas City Portrait Photographer

I've photographed this family before, but the new wrinkle this time is they brought their dog - it seems like I'm photographing a lot of dogs lately - another one is expected on Wednesday. Thankfully, they all have been very well-behaved in the studio so far!

Thanks, Tanya - I always enjoy photographing your beautiful family - gallery coming soon.

Happy 7th birthday to my little boy!

Wishing my son a wonderful 7th birthday -

he's the most kindhearted, social little guy I know.

I can't imagine loving you more.

Happy 10th birthday, Sweetness - Kansas City Photographer

Yesterday evening I photographed this girl for her 10th birthday. We had to be a little flexible and change locations at the very last minute, but the results show that was not a problem, thankfully!

I've photographed her many times and she's always sad when the session is over - this girl loves the camera! Happy birthday to one of the sweetest girls I know.

Another Blessing for Wendy - Kansas City Maternity Photographer

Wendy will be the first to tell you that she's living a blessed life - and she's not talking about the fact that she's expecting her sixth child in a couple of weeks and looks amazing (although the rest of us surely can add that to her list of blessings). Husband Tim is a physician and often travels the world on medical missions and Wendy and the kids sometimes go with him. I love to learn the story is my clients' lives and appreciate so much when they share even a small part of their life story with me. Thank you, Wendy, for choosing me to photograph your pregnancy - I enjoyed it very much and look forward to showing you all of your images - soon!

Happy 3rd birthday, A!- Kansas City Portrait Photographer

Here's another beautiful birthday child whom I've photographed since she was a newborn. This year, she really showed off her personality - lol! Isn't she a doll? Dana - your continued support of Center Stage means so much to me. Thank you so much! Gallery coming soon - hopefully today!
