When you live right next to the lake, taking photos in your backyard is a must.  There were family photos, senior photos, laughs, a little wrestling and a super sweet dog. :)

Scaggs Family

Who doesn't love walking around the West Bottoms?  It is such an iconic Kansas City location with old buildings and antique shops.  Pair a great location with kids who enjoy having their photo taken and you can't go wrong.  Thank you Scaggs family.  It was great to see you guys again.

Anna

My most recent trip to my hometown to visit family included senior portraits of Anna.  She requested pretty backgrounds and maybe some sunflowers if possible.  Well...while the kids played at the park, I spotted some sunflowers across the street, in the alley....of the local funeral home. :)  I called the funeral home to ask permission to shoot on their property and then I texted Anna to see if she would want to take some photos there.  Surprisingly, she responded, "Yes that would be awesome."  It really is true, a photographer can take portraits anywhere.  :-)

Head shots

Such a quick and easy head shot session.  With the tethered capture, we took and selected the final images in less than a half hour.  Good luck on the job hunt!

Sisters

These lovely ladies came together for a photo shoot with their mom.  With this late morning session, we lucked out with a mostly overcast sky and a gentle breeze.  I enjoyed the jokes, the laughter and watching the loving bond between each of them.

Summer Portraits

I met the "W" family at our neighborhood pond and waterfall.  So thankful that we have beautiful amenities here.  It is always nice to take photos just a couple of minutes from home.
