She gets it from her momma... her joy, that is. She gets it from her momma... her joy, that is. The single biggest impression we've gotten of this momma is how much happiness she has in her children. It's always there, always. Happy Mother's Day to all the mommas out there! #welovetellingyourstory #mothersday #happiness #kansascityfamilyphotographer #myfirstyearwithmikeandjulie
When it comes to guys, Senior pictures get a bad r When it comes to guys, Senior pictures get a bad rap. They are usually a bit reluctant to get in front of the camera and would compare the whole experience to a double date with his parents. We are happy to say we have a spiffy track record when it comes to the guys actually having a good time at their session. We love this image of Will not just because he looks super dapper... but you can see how happy this kid is. He let himself enjoy his time with us and we were able to draw out some great genuine smiles. Not just those fake plastic smiles you as parents normally see. We love being able to provide parents with those authentic and joy filled images of their boys that would make any mom tear up and dad let out a happy dad grunt. #mikeandjuliesenior #inspiration #wordstoliveby #kansascityseniorphotographer #classof2023
What's better than a Grandma dog pile! We love c What's better than a Grandma dog pile! We love creating time capsules for families. Take this image for example. You can feel all the happiness in this photo. What a cool memory to have! How much do you think Grandma cherishes having this photo to look at once she's back home between visits with her grandbabies? How valuable will this photo be when these two littles are grown up with kiddos of their own? Imagine if your memories of your own grandparents were in more than just your mind, but in a picture you could hold? Family photos can be more than merely capturing families in their Sunday best smiling at the camera. Family photos are a great opportunity to create MEANING in your life now and get those memories out of your head and onto paper to enjoy forever. What memories of your grandparents do you wish you had a photo of? #theUNportraitExperience #kcstoryteller #kansascitystoryteller #documentaryphotosession #familyphotos #printyourmemories
This image brings such a big smile to our faces! O This image brings such a big smile to our faces! One, it's freakin' hilarious. Two, and more importantly, as silly as it is, it showcases what we LOVE to capture for our clients. You see, this image came together organically, all on its own. It perfectly represents the relationship between brother and sister. Seeing this moment unfold and hearing Mom & Dad behind us giggling, we knew these sorts of shenanigans are most certainly acted out daily in their house. What a perfect memory to document! Knowing that this family will look back on this fun (& accurate) image 20 years from now and get even more joy out of it then than they do now makes our photog hearts very happy 😍 #sayNOtoboringphotos #welovetellingYOURstory #familyhistorian
We love it when folks let their guards down and sh We love it when folks let their guards down and show us something real. We love this image in particular because of just how well it features this young lady's JOY. Alex is the poster child for genuine happiness! Even a small amount of time with her and you'll feel lighter and happier just by being near her. We LOVE that she wasn't afraid to let it shine big and bright for our cameras! #mikeandjuliesenior #classof2023 #kansascityseniorphotographer #kcseniorphotographer #senior
