Gearing Up for the Holidays!

The Holiday season is around the corner and as a St. Louis family photographer, I am lucky to create naturally beautiful portraits for families who like to document this time of year with art. This lil’ man was about to celebrate his first birthday when his photography session took place. It was a bit chilly outdoors and so we headed to the Jewel Box to stay warm and take advantage of the beautiful landscaping. It’s amazing how much he’s grown and changed within his first year of life. I first photographed him when he was still in him mom’s belly for their maternity portrait session and then I captured his newborn photos as well as mid year milestones. He has such a fun personality – full of smiles and is so loving with his parents. This family has a lot of fun together and I know their adventures throughout life will be FANTASTIC! It’s an honor to create artwork for this family that documents these special milestones in their lives. See you soon!

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.
