Rock Chalk Jayhawk!

This past week I got the luxury to take my cousins maternity pictures! Its a pretty cool luxury if you ask me. I love doing what I do. Growing bellies are adorable! Even with the moody mom attached, hehe. I love my cousin, she's always a happy sarcastic person. I suppose to it runs in the family ;).



Enjoy!! :)

Sunday Sneak Peek

Ok I realize I'm a few days late, but I have very good reason. We had a very busy Sunday! My husband and I had a day away from the kids, it was so nice! We went to the casino, I turned $20 into $50. I'm a baller haha. Then we looked around at Nebraska Furniture Mart after we went to the movies and saw Rango! Had such a nice day away from the boys.

Now for your sneak peek, don't get mad at me Im a little late. I'm gonna work on something to post on Tuesdays too. Trying to figure out super cute names. I'm rambling again. Have you ever noticed how much work they give kindergartners? Well if you don't have one in school yet, you'll understand soon enough. If you've been there done that kind of thing, its insane on how much they need them to know just in Kindergarten. I don't remember needing to know all this.

Seth is working on math work, he loves numbers so this comes naturally to him.

Thanks for looking!

Maternity - looking for a fashion forward, hip mama due before April 10, 2011 (outdoor session)

Newborn- must be under 10 days

Girl age 3-6 years old (outdoor session)

Boudoir- must pay for own room, must be female 



Entries must include a photo within the past year and other important info (names, address, ages, due dates, etc.) to be considered. Thank you!

First and foremost I am an artist. There are times when I get an idea in my head that I just HAVE to photograph. As many artists do, I pull inspiration from so many places and when that strikes I want to fulfill it!

This is good news for you!

As I get ideas that I want to photograph I will often put out "fresh face casting calls" looking for a specific type of model. This will usually include a complimentary session as a gift to you for helping me fulfill the idea and some other complimentary goodies I offer. For these events, no minimum purchase is required.

All I ask in return is complete creative control (of course we are always safe!) and a signed model release which means I may use the images produced for marketing my business (never with your name attached) on my website, blog, facebook, etc.

Cake Smash | Olathe Kansas Photographer

I have so much fun with first birthday cake smash sessions. Kids are hilarious anyway, but give them a big pile of sugar with full permissions and well it can only = fun. You really can’t guarantee much with it. Some kids love it. Some kids could care less. But you can guarantee that it’s me, mom and dad pretty much laughing for 45 minutes straight.

Here is a sneak peek from this awesome little dudes cake smash! Happy Birthday Caleb!



Birthday Pictures for my own!

We attempted them, he wasnt to into them this time. That happens though when you have a very active almost 3yr old though. I'm just happy he at least cooperated a little bit during the whole thing. It was a very short, umm.. session with him lol. I'll be doing more next weekend hopefully when we have more time, we're planning his birthday party Saturday so all week we've been extremely busy making sure we have everything we need. As moms know its a never ending job double, triple checking the list.

So without further ado...

This one is my favorite^^^ he was so into it.

He didnt care to much for this! We got a bit gutsy on the rocks, I dont think he cared to much for my idea.

Oh how I love my boy! Well I shall return sometime during the week with birthday party pictures and hopefully I'll get some more big 3 pictures from him. Then next month I get to do it all again with the number 6!! My kids are getting so big =(

Thanks for reading!
