We help families step outside the box of what they think “family photos” need to be & embrace documenting their family’s moments now, for the future.
Dang, we’re honored to be your photographers! Dang, we’re honored to be your photographers! Believe it or not, our first ever session with this family since little bro was 6 months old… now he’s 10. 10!! Your story grows, evolves, and changes over the years. We love being alongside you to document it each step of the way! We still have Tuesday evenings open with one Saturday left open in October. Hit us up BEFORE the cold and Daylight Savings ends!! #sayNOtoboringphotos #welovetellingyourstory #familyhistorian #fallfamilyphotos #kcfallphotos #familyphotographer #kansascitystoryteller
As we enjoy these last few days of official summer As we enjoy these last few days of official summer, we just wanted to share the beautiful and confident Isadora from @aotadance Isn’t she stunning? #dancewithmikeandjulie #professionaldancepictures #kcdancephotographer #kansascitydancephotography #kansascitydancephotographer #kcdance #naturedancephotos #dancersofinstagram
UPDATE: September weekends are full, folks! Still UPDATE: September weekends are full, folks! Still booking October, although with evenings getting earlier and earlier you’ll want to schedule earlier rather than later. Will you be getting in front of our cameras this Fall? Got questions about a session? Hit us up!
Hey Seniors! You’re most likely all settled in Hey Seniors! You’re most likely all settled in after the start of your #senioryear You’ve got your favorite classes picked out... your frenemies are the best... and your crush said, “God bless you” after you sneezed last Friday. IT’S GOING TO BE THE BEST SENIOR YEAR EVER... no cap! Well, if you want to have the best senior year on the books... don’t forget your #seniorpictures Trust us... you want to take care of your session now rather than in the cold of winter or as you’re stressed and scrambling for graduation in the Spring. If you are going to procrastinate... do it with your homework and not your senior pics! ❗Message us for info #saynotoboringphotos #welovetellingyourstory #kansascityseniorphotographer #kansascitysenior
Happy Friday y’all! This sweet girl smiled no l Happy Friday y’all! This sweet girl smiled no less than FOUR times for us at her newborn session yesterday. She is so loved already by her sweet momma, proud daddy, and incredible big brother. More to come! #myfirstyearwithmikeandjulie #newbornphotographer #kcphotographer #newbornsmile #weLOVEtellingYOURstory
It isn't any secret we LOVE capuring real moments It isn't any secret we LOVE capuring real moments during your #familysession with us. They are the best.. the bee's knees... or for our Gen Z and Alpha followers... real moments are lit and fire (who knows if I actually used those correctly). Even though we focus on those fun and candid moments that make your family yours... we do still like to get a few "smiling at the camera" photos. Not your fake and forced smile that looks like you ate too much at Fogo de Chao. Your real smile. We also like to make these camera focused photos laid back and relaxed. No intricate and stuffy posing. Nothing too formal. Just you and your favorite favorites snuggled up smiling toward the guy near the camera shaking his bum at you. ❤ It's not too late to get on our list for fall photos... but we are filling up. Click on "Experience + Pricing" in the bio to get a hefty dose of what we are about!
Thinking of getting #familyphotos this #Fall 🍂🍁? Whether your session is with us or another lucky photographer, you’ll have a better experience when you try these #stressfreephototips. 1-BOOK NOW: Now is a great time to get your date reserved for #September and #October. 2-SCHEDULE EARLIER IN THE SEASON: Never wait til the end of the good Fall weather season. Schedule early, leaving room to reschedule and still have good temps for your session. 3-AIM FOR LESS PEAK DAYS: If stress-free is your goal (as it ALWAYS is for us), we adore Monday-Thursday sessions at popular locations. 4-TRY URBAN LOCATIONS: Fall does NOT exclude amazing urban spots! BONUS TIP: Waiting for Fall color is for the birds. There, we said it… When you do all these things you’ll experience a stress-free photo experience! Want to know more about booking with us? The links in bio are the best place to go, my friend. #sayNOtoboringphotos #welovetellingyourstory #kansascityphotographer
Thank you all SOOOOOO very much for nominating us Thank you all SOOOOOO very much for nominating us for Best Kansas City Photographer... we had no idea this was even happening!
