Who doesn't love a beautiful Fall afternoon after so much rain and cold? So glad this young lady's calendar was full until now. I mean. Such a great day and she is just lovely. She is a dancer...this one is for dad: Go Stags! Didn't even matter what she was doing or where we stopped, every image in the gallery was jaw-dropping beautiful! T...

I met with this cute family today. After rescheduling because Kansas weather. So cute, reminiscing about their wedding photos..meeting eye to eye... With a fit of giggles from the kids. Because not really eye to eye at all... And let's just talk about the kids...so cute! straight out of the camera...just the girls... Are you kidding me? An...

Each senior is unique, and so is our time together. I strive to pray and research and then we continue to dialogue about the best way to capture his/her vision. This senior was so much that. What is important to her? 2 puppies-at-heart BIG dogs--who, by the way, don't understand sit and smile for the camera. But they did a good job smiling, I think...

What a beautiful autumn day for this gorgeous senior. Such an exciting time as the college acceptance letters keep coming in... I loved exploring a new park with her and mom and sister. Even thought we might be doing some kayaking but thought maybe not this time.:) Love when mom jumps in a shot with senior. And what a gift to hang out with si...

The weather was gorgeous this afternoon--the perfect weather to head out to photograph another senior! And would you just look at her! Stunning! On her way to being accepted at all the colleges to which she has applied. State qualifier for Science Olympiad...TWICE!...it's no surprise this young lady wants to study Biology in college! So prou...

GAH! Google fiber was out in my area and I couldn't post these sneak peeks til just now! How we rely on technology... Love this young lady. if I had time, I would go digging for photos from when she was just a kinder...even back then, her smile lit up the room! Sure felt like it was yesterday...just a blink of time... Even a simple crisscross...

The weather has been so KANSAS lately--cold and rainy and then out of nowhere, beautiful sunshine. That is what it did today! And we thought we might have to postpone our time together...So glad we didn't! This senior! Not only is she gorgeous, but super talented, smart, and a musician too! How lucky am I that she chose ME as her senior photogra...

Love these little sweeties who weren't quite sure what they thought of me... They are the youngest three of a family of 11. It is no small feat getting everyone out the door AND looking good. We large family moms get it. So. In the interest of all the things, we decided to meet these 3 first, and then catch up with all the big kids later......

Sweet baby will be making his debut soon, so we snuck in a sunrise session. Love these two and can't wait to meet their little one! Thank you for trusting me with your memories!

I just LOVE LOVE LOVE this session with this gorgeous senior on her John Deere! She even snapped a shot of me riding in the bucket--I think its called a bucket? We stopped off at church because her faith is so important to her. Miss Syd! I love how you aren't even trying to smile, but His joy shines through you! Thank you for trusting...

I just can't believe I never posted these beautiful images of this young lady. Also a WYD Pilgrim, who quite literally threw together some outfits and jumped into the Fiat rental, and we headed to the beach! Isn't she just so cute! Not before I LOST the rental car??? (It was impounded.) (Because I missed the "parking only for taxi's" (in Portugu...

We just returned from a pilgrimage to Portugal, Fatima, and World Youth Day. And when this one asked to do some of her senior photos while overseas, well, you just say yes and make it happen. We thought they decorated the streets for our arrival. Turns out, they had running with the bulls from Midnight - 3am right outside our window where we sle...

We braved the hottest day of the year. The future is bright wtih this one...already accepted into undergrad...she even volunteers at an animal shelter...so naturally, we visited with some puppies. LOVE! ps. I did NOT bring one home with me! You can't even tell how hot it was with how beautiful she looks! And we braved sunset with wildflowers.

This smart and beautiful senior was a delight to photograph today! Can't you just tell? Miss K is musical, a dancer, AND going to study Engineering in college next year! She had some ideas, and after talking, we put together a plan to highlight a little bit of her serious side... A reflection of her midwestern roots... And let's not forget,...

I met with this young man who has his dad's children's Bible--which is almost as big as his cute self... The story goes that when mom was young, she had the SAME Bible!?! And when they discovered this, you know, they were destined to be together.:) Ok, so maybe the story didn't go exactly like that, but how beautiful, God's plan? Congratul...
