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.

🍂🍁Hey y’all! Happy Fall! 🍁🍂 This is 🍂🍁Hey y’all! Happy Fall! 🍁🍂 This is going to be our place on IG to keep fall booking info up to date, here’s the scoop: 🔸Session Availability: Sessions are available Tuesday through Saturday. FRIDAYS ARE ALL BOOKED IN OCTOBER. We shoot when the light is the most flattering, so that means mornings and evenings. Evenings are going to be more comfortable for temperatures and also for less dew on the grass in natural locations.

🔸DST: Don’t forget about Daylight Savings Time ending on November 5th. What does that mean for pictures? Well, remember that info above? It means evening light hits earlier and makes weekend spots even more valuable.

🔸Popular/In Demand Locations: We are HUGE fans of creating a stress-LESS experience for you, and that means we love heading to popular locations Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday so that we can have free reign over all the best spots at popular locations. If you want a recipe for stress, here it is: popular locations on the weekends. If you can, try to prioritize your experience for a weeknight. You will 💯 be glad you did. If you have to choose a weekend, ask us about locations with more privacy and less crowds, that’s definitely our jam! So, will we be seeing you this October?? #welovetellingyourstory #fallfamilyphotos #kcfallphotos #familyphotographer #sayNOtoboringphotos #familyhistorian

Here’s what one mom had to say about what she wanted to feel when she saw her photos: “I want to create a memory of connection and love for my kids. Seeing cute little smiles and giggles on my sweet babies’ faces. Hopefully capturing a moment where you can see how much we love them.” ❤️ How do you want to feel?
