a whole lotta stuff...









Last week was a busy week! I had a few more sessions than I usually schedule to accommodate a couple of out-of-town clients who were only in town for a short while. First, of my out of town clients was a belly session from St. Louis, and the second was a family session with parts of the family from Columbia and parts from St. Louis. Which made me think a little about who my clients are. Most are from the mid-mo and surrounding areas, but I have multiple families from both St. Louis and Kansas City that travel here for photo sessions. I have clients from Ohio, Tennessee, and Kentucky. My Furthest clients are 2 different families from Australia, and my closest clients are 2 houses down the street. It is always a little flattering when someone drives that far for sessions, or makes a point to schedule sessions around trips to mid-mo.

The rest of the week was already booked full with clients as well, which Ill include a few teasers for those of you who's sessions are finished being edited yet. I also had a rare session this week for me... I did a wedding. Although, it was quite different from the "traditional" wedding. After a ceremony at the Courthouse we met at the gov. gardens for some quick pictures. Luckily the rain held off, as we hadn't made any alternate plans! Congrats to you both B&D!

Then I had my first senior session of the year... we were all set to meet and do some outside shots, but the rain didn't quite cooperate! So we headed to the studio and got those out of the way. All I can say is Wow! What a little beauty, and just all around sweet girl! I'm so excited to finish the rest of our session!!

Quick few







Such a beautiful evening it was uptown. Just wanted to share a few from a session I'm working on editing right now. I've done sessions with baby W before, but got the chance to do a family session this time, as well as some with all the cousins. So fun to get to see the whole family in action! The family interaction sessions are always so fun and full of personality! Cant wait to get the session finished!

What a Day!!!!!







Last Tuesday was such a great day!! Not only did I get to photograph some beautiful twins, but we got to offers on our old house! The twins are little twins girls of one of my neighbors, who now has three little girls just like we do! Mom went to 39 weeks for her planned C-section. Can you believe it... 39 weeks? And I even saw her out walking the sat before the birth! She is quite the woman and I feel so lucky that she invited me in to photograph them! Newborns have got to be my absolute favorite, and then twins on top of that. Ive photographed one other set of newborn twins, and both times it has taken me back to the birth of my twins! Congrats to you guys, and I hope you are all doing well after Joe's surgery, you guys have been in my prayers! I cant wait to finish editing your pictures, they were absolutely the sweetest little sleepers ever and didn't even hardly fuss during the whole session! One newborn can be tricky, but these two were easier than most singletons!






Then, after such a rush of photographing the twins, we got a couple of offers on our house house, which landed us a contract due to close July 21! Talk about a day! Its been a long year with two houses! We are so glad to finally get it behind us and move on!!! Yeah!!!
