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 Peeks

I'm going to try to do something new, hopefully I'll remember to do this every weekend. If not then remind me please? I often take pictures of whats going on in my own house, I just always fail to show it. Well let me rephrase that I dont share with you all what I do at home. Hopefully this will change all that, at least give you a perspective what I do in a day.

We have a german shepard named Lulu. She's a spoiled baby hehe. She tends to think she can sit on the couch and take up all the room. I was booted off the couch and onto the floor, which kinda worked out cause i can get cool shoots like this.

My husband and I got bored and started playing with the boys' hand light thing, for the life of me I cannot remember whats it called. Anyway we turned off all the lights and just had fun with it. This is one of my favorites that we did.

Thanks for taking a sneak peek into my daily life :)

Everyone Loves A Baby Belly!

I'm getting nerdy with these titles arent it? At least I'm interesting, or I try to be. These are for my sister, whom is always one of the best models I can find when I need one. Now her lovely daughter will be the second best. I'm so excited to finally have a niece, from my side of the family. I'm already an aunt from my husbands side, but this times its my turn. There will be more to come within the next month or so as she gets bigger. She's due mid April!

Enjoy the peek!

Rose Droplets

I've done waterdroplets before. I've seen water droplets done on roses before. Of course I wanted to at least try it. What better time to try than with the roses I got for valentines day! I could use more work, maybe I'll try it again with a different flower or another techinque.

Thanks for looking



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!



Every Princess has her Day! Part 2

I wasn't kidding when I said this was a big share! So many picture I'd like to share for a sneak peek I couldn't help myself and I figured since they are both separate events, I dont see why I cant get away with doing that..so here we are blog number 2. First part is with her cousin(I believe) they are close in age. The rest have the Princess.

I'll keep this one short! Enjoy!

"Families are like fudge...

mostly sweet with a few nuts" -Author unknown.

I found this quote online, I think it fits perfectly, you will soon see why. First a few things, I've been doing a lot of thinking, I think I'm going to revamp on how I do this whole blog thing. I feel that I'm boring to you guys. You will still receive your sneak peek, promise! But I'd like to chat a bit more with you try to think of some witty titles(which sometimes I feel like I fail). Come chat with me on FB, I'm a very talkative person sometimes too talkative. I do enjoy a nice conversation since most of the time my days consist of a 5yr old a 2yr old.

Lets get back to this energetic family! They we're a blast to work with, the boys were fun. C(the older one) was too cute, such a goof ball just like B(his little brother). B was a ball of energy, he would sit still long enough for the pose then say 'all done' and run off till the next one. So cute!


Real quick, apparently I'm having issues with my images now showing up as sharp as they are in person, pay no mind please! I'll be figuring that out soon hopefully. They are high res on my computer, in my file, the internet, facebook etc tends to degrade the way my pictures look. I'm sorry about that!

An outtake...by request! Who doesn't love funny photos?

Hopefully I'll see you guys again soon! And for the rest of you, I hope I'll be seeing your inquiry soon :)

Till next time,

Rachel!

p.s more so a note to myself, but I wish my watermark didnt look so funky online. :(

Mr & Mrs C Wedding

Yep, you read that right, I got a chance to shoot my first wedding. It wasn't a big wedding, but the size doesn't matter. What an experience! I loved that it was somewhat personal to me, someone I knew. This blog post is so hard for me to type, so many pictures to choose from to show. I want to show them all, I really do. Saturday went over so well, I got so many emotional pictures and some fun ones too.

So we're going to step out of the traditional 2 picture sneak peek just for a moment, deal with me as I tell a short story.

Daddy walking his daughter down the aisle.

First kiss as Husband and Wife.

Family.

Isn't she precious?

A few more from our after wedding pictures.

Just one more! Have seen what I mean yet? So very hard to pick just a few to show, I'm having a hard time choosing these as it is.

This was hard work, I hope you enoyed your sneak peek Mrs C(hehe). You are more than welcome to link anyone here to view and comment. Enjoy everyone!!

Rachel.

Sneak Peek of Baby J

Awhile back I got asked to photograph this couples maternity pictures, I was very pleased when they asked me to do their newborn pictures too. I managed to get to baby J at 8 days old, he's precious such an extremely happy baby. Oh how I miss the newborn stage, my boys are much older now, I do miss it. 

Enjoy baby J, they don't stay little for very long.   

Sneak Peek for K of Baby C

Friday I got the wonderful luxury of photograph a friend from high schools son, Cameron. He is adorable, and quite an attitude for being 6wks. Such an easy baby though, as long as mommy was close by he was a pretty happy camper till I made him a bit upset, but nothing that I couldn't handle of course. It was nice though to talk about whats going with the friends we use to talk to in high school, everything has changed. I ramble I know so I'll knock it off and show you what you came here for!

:) I hope you like them K.
