St. Louis Photographer

When Liz said she wanted to get new photos of her family, I was honored when she asked me to do it! I know Liz from work at the school district; she is amazing! She helps coordinate one of the school's Oasis program (among many other things) and she is always so kind and helpful and a wonder to spend time with. So when she came to me for pictures, I was so excited to work with her as a photographer and meet her family. We met her husband, Jay, and children Jillian and Lucas.

For the fourth year in a row we've had the pleasure of photographing Melissa and Spencer's growing family. This year was amazing! Their son Hudson is now in kindergarten (I can't believe it!) and Adalynd was running around and being as adorable as can be. I can't believe how quickly they are growing up. They even brought along a few additional family members to join in and help keep Hudson and Adalynd occupied as needed. We hadn't seen Melissa's dad and Spencer's mom since th

There is something incredibly special about getting 21 family members together! And that's exactly what Donna orchestrated so she could get pictures of her entire family. Only her parents and one daughter were not able to be there, which is a pretty amazing feat! And while her parents weren't there, Donna's idea behind the session was to get group family photos for them. Donna was the recipient of a sessions we donated to the Pattonville Wheelchair Basketball Game fundraiser,

One of my favorite things about photographing families is seeing the dynamic between everyone. When it's time to edit, I love seeing those dynamics captured for a lifetime. This trio below was a blast to work with! Stephanie, her fiancé Casey and her son Brandon were so wonderful! There is such a great connection between them. Even after a little boo-boo, Brandon bounced back to being the most energetic little guy I think I've met! He particularly enjoyed playing a new game J

Christy is one of my favorite people ever! So when she asked me about doing her son's senior pictures, and a few pictures of her family, I was so excited! I've meet her family a few times over the years (usually at Wizard Con!), but it was great getting to actually spend some time with them and get to know them all better. The Kasprzyk's and the Gordons have a lot of shared interested, so getting together with them with the perfect opportunity to talk all things sci-fi, inclu

It was so exciting to see Melissa again at the Fort Howell craft fair in November! We photographed Spencer, Melissa and Hudson for the first time last year and was happy we could do pictures with her family on another day later in the fall. There were two big changes between our mini session with them last year and our session this year. First, I was excited to find out that Melissa is pregnant! She's having a little girl who is due in January, which is so exciting! She said

Everything about our session with the Burns family was wonderful! We met Randy, Mallorey, Kylar and Foster at Hellebusch Park near both of our houses and we were all so excited to see there was still beautiful fall colors on the trees. Everything about their session was amazing! I love their color scheme, with the red and grey. And the colors in the trees. And the park. And everything about them as a family! Randy and Mallorey are terrific people and wonderful parents. And Ky

We had the pleasure of photographing the Elven family recently. Nick, Stephanie and their son Colin are three of the nicest people you'll ever meet! We met Stephanie when we photographed her sister Amy's wedding last year. At the time, Stephanie was nearly eight months pregnant. I was incredibly excited to hear from her this fall when she got in touch about family pictures, not only to see them again but to meet their little guy, Colin. The day of our session ended up being C

These sweet sisters are Jackie and Carly. Carly enjoyed being at the park, but not was not so thrilled whenever I tried to get a picture of her. But Jackie was so helpful. She did everything she could to get to get Carly to smile and have fun. Jackie was so nice, and was determine to help us get a good picture of her sister, but was excited when it was time to take a few pictures of just her. They were so much fun and so sweet. They are perfect sisters! I love both of these p

I first talked to Patricia in 2015 when I was looking for a lawyer to look over our contracts. Patricia was terrific and incredibly helpful. That fall, she contacted us to photograph her family's reunion, and then we got to see them again that winter for her father's company's holiday party that we photographed. It was so wonderful to hear from Patricia recently inquiring about family pictures. I enjoyed getting to see her, Luke and their children Elliott and Cora again. We m
