Oh my heart. And these sweet voices! What a gift to be invited to welcome this sweet soul to this beautiful family. Even better, is having the experience of knowing this family from the VERY START! I filmed Mike and Crystal’s wedding years ago, then sweet Savannah’s first year, as well as John! To say I was THRILLED when Crystal contacted me to make a little film of welcoming Luke to his new family is an understatement. What I wouldn’t give to have something like this of my babies when they were little. With me in it!! There is just something about the movement, and the voices of both the little ones and Mom and Dad that is just priceless. Even the bit of chaos and busyness of the kids is beautiful. This family also got about 15 images from this short little shoot. Thank you Mike and Crystal for having me back!!!!
Family Films are BACK! Baby Luke and Mom and Dad! Super8 Film
Oh boy – there is nothing like the sounds of baby babble. I really truly cherish this sound. I didn’t make enough videos of my own kids when they were little. At least I didn’t make “good” ones. I did the normal shaky handheld camcorder recordings and they are still amazing and precious, but I wish I had something like this with my husband and I actually interacting with our kids when they were tiny AND growing up. Take a minute to join Luke and his family for a few sweet moments this spring at The Nelson-Atkins. Sweet and simple moments like these are so fleeting. Everyone always told me that when the kids were little. I never believed them because the days felt so long. But they were right. It goes way too fast.

Babies, Kids and DUCKS!
Its that time of year again when my OWN kids ask, “when are we getting the DUCKS?”. How can I say no? They will be visiting next week!
The link to sign up is: http://creative-films1.genbook.com
Payment is due upon signup. Please make note of my new location in Mission Kansas at the Bonfire Studio! Super excited to part of this space – if you haven’t been here it is worth a visit just to see the space!
Can’t wait to see so many of you that come back every year! Feel free to share with your friends – and know that these sell out FAST – no adding on dates either as I am always ready to see the Ducks leave my tiny downstairs bathroom after only a few days. LOL.
Luke – 6 months
Spring Ducks and Babies – Kansas City Child Photography
This has become quite the annual event for us – Spring Ducks and Babies! I think this might be our 5th year doing these mini-sessions and we have SO MANY families who come back! I honestly think out of the 13 families I saw over the weekend, there was only one new one! This is the reason I do them year after year. Yes, the ducks are cute, but getting to see former bridal clients bring their babies in and special portrait clients come in year after year is really amazing. The ducks will go to their permanent home tomorrow, a friend with some land and a pond not too far away. We spent the evening playing with them at my house today – my kids will miss them and their ducky adventures. I am mostly happy to get my downstairs bathroom back!
Here are a few peeks into the fun that was had over the weekend! You can see more on our Facebook page!
