St. Louis Child Photographer | Beginnings!

This morning I took my daughter out on a location scout and did a lil’ portrait session with her at this beautiful scene I happened upon. Isn’t it serene and gorgeous? I swear I heard angels sing as I came across this area. My daughter was excited to feed the ducks, run around and hug her beloved lambie. As I look at these images, I’m reminded of all that is just beginning – summer, hatched eggs that bring life to chicks and other birdies, blooming flowers into the new season, entrance of Kindergarten for my daughter this coming school year, teeth breaking through where baby ones have left, fireflies, etc… I just love all the seasons for different reasons, but today I realized just how beautiful the beginning of summer really is. Thank you mother nature for all you provide. I’m happy to make use of your beautiful scenery for personal use as well as for my wonderful clients. Let summer begin!

Some bonds deserve to be remembered forever. 

When planning portrait sessions, I always encourage families to include the animals that hold such a special place in their hearts. They are part of your story too. 

This sweet girl adores her beloved horse and says he is “the most gentle, loving horse” she has ever known. Watching the two of them together was pure magic. The quiet connection, trust, and love between them is something worth documenting and cherishing for generations.

A quiet field, wildflowers in bloom, and that golden hour glow…the perfect setting to document this once-in-a-lifetime season before she headed to UGA.

These are the moments you’ll always want to remember.

Such an honor photographing this sweet girl for her sitting milestone session this morning. A true dream baby—full of smiles and the softest little coos.

We captured moments in the studio and then stepped outside into this beautiful spring light. This bassinet felt perfectly fitting for both her milestone and the season.

These first-year milestones pass in a blink… but they are the moments you’ll treasure forever.

“Lala Land” 

What started as a few messages between strangers turned into something so much more. Two sisters, two new friends… and a leap of faith that became a home.

Now, they’re not just roommates - they’re chosen family. A place filled with laughter, support, comfort, and the kind of connection that defines a freshman year.

The sweetest beginning to friendships that will last a lifetime.

When I asked this little girl where her favorite spots are on her home property, she mentioned the peonies out front. They were in full bloom and her little hands couldn’t resist them as she showed me some of her most beloved flowers. 

At sessions, I  always encourage incorporating the things your children love most into your portraits. These details may feel small now, but they become part of their story - their season, their wonder, their childhood. The result? Images that feel personal, meaningful, and timeless.
