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.

Heather and Rob's baby boy - Kansas City Newborn Portraits

I love photographing this family and was so happy to be able to do a newborn session for Heather and Rob on Sunday, celebrating the birth of their third son. All three of their boys are very well behaved in my studio - lol - which makes my job so easy! Plus, both parents love photography, and Rob's Dad owns a portrait studio! So there's always a lot of photography talk during the session. Thank you so much, Heather and Rob, for choosing me to photograph your family.

Shannon's Babies - Kansas City Newborn Photographer

Shannon came a couple of months ago for maternity portraits, and just this week I had the fun of photographing her new baby girl for her newborn portraits at 4 days old! Shannon's 6-year-old has the most amazing eyes, and it looks like her baby girl will, too - aren't the kids beautiful? The baby sure showed them to me enough at her session - don't let these sleeping images fool you - this little dolly doesn't like to sleep - poor mom and dad!

Thank you so much, Shannon, for choosing me for these most precious of portraits. I've enjoyed working with you. Gallery coming soon!

Three Girls for Anne - Kansas City Maternity Photographer

Anne, expecting her third daughter, was recently living in England and planning to return to her favorite photographer when she returned to the U.S. But when she got back, she learned the studio was no longer in business. So she found me! And I'm happy she did. She's fun to work with and her daughters are adorable!

Congratulations on your pregnancy, Anne - gallery coming soon! (and yes, it will be ready for Kellie to see this weekend!)

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!

Big Girl! - Kansas City Newborn Portraits

This baby girl took her sweet time making her appearance into the world arriving two weeks after her due date and tipping the scales at nine and a half pounds!  She is such a beautiful little thing, and has the proudest parents - I love working with them!

Here's a few to look at while you await your gallery.

Karen - Liberty High School Senior Portraits

I had a great time photographing Karen for her senior portraits - she's such a great girl- she dances competitively for Elite Dance Co., she plays violin in the Liberty High School orchestra, and will be traveling to China soon to perform, and she recently danced in a Hanson video (I didn't get all the details but it sounded fun!).

Choosing images for my blog was so hard - but here's a few to enjoy while you wait for your gallery, Karen!

Class of 2010- it's not too late to schedule a senior portrait session - contact me soon!
