McGill Family: April 2014

Seriously....we attempted to schedule this session I don't know how many times last fall/the end of last year and either a sick baby or bad weather always seemed to keep it from happening...well it FINALLY happened and their family is ABSOLUTELY adorable!:) Enjoy the pictures!

Braylyn: First Easter

Seriously, how in the world is this baby already three months old?! That does NOT seem possible!

Her momma...(who happens to be one of my best friends) :)  came over to get some Easter Pictures taken of her in her Easter dress. She is such a cutie and I loved EVERY minute I was photographing her...especially the times I got to just HOLD her and snuggle her! :)

Lucky for me, my boys LOVE her mom and she played with them the whole time (Thanks Kels...seriously!)

Happy Birthday Beckett

I had to opportunity to photograph this little ONE YEAR old at my house the other day. Okay to be honest, I was a little nervous to do his session at my HOUSE...I'm an ON LOCATION photographer and DO NOT have my own studio or studio lights...I've only photographed my OWN boys at my house, and I only do NEWBORNS indoors...so this was a fun adventure for me!
He was NOT too fond of the camera or taking pictures....that is UNTIL his wonderful momma gave him his CAKE! He was BEYOND excited to see the cake...he LOVED it! :) Enjoy the pictures!

Pohlsander Siblings

Check out these cuties! We had the most BEAUTIFUL/warm day to capture  these photos! Good thing we took these pictures when we did because just a few hours later it was windier than all get out and a couple days later we had SNOW! Crazy Missouri weather for you!
These kids are always fun to photograph. The two OLDEST girls sure are always striking a pose! They are most definitely comfortable in front of the camera!
Enjoy the photos of these cute kiddos...OH and I couldn't believe that this little 9month old is ALREADY walking!

Ian: Cake Smash: November 2012

Happy Birthday Ian! My cute little Nephew is ONE! We had a little birthday party at my sister in-laws house and she asked me to take some pictures of Ian while he attacked his cake! He is seriously SO cute, and I CAN NOT believe how fast he is growing up!

Notice his hand...about to crab the LIT candle! YEP...he didn't like that too much! POOR BOY!

This may just be one of my FAVORITE photos from this shoot! LOVE LOVE LOVE

Mathison Family: November 2012

 This was the 3rd session for the day, and being very large and pregnant this lady was pretty exhausted but how could I pass up the opportunity to photograph my ADORABLE niece and nephews (and of course their parents). Loved how these pictures turned out!
This is a lovely location to photograph! I'll have to keep it in mind for anyone else who wants to use the Springfield area for pictures! Love trying NEW locations!

Todd Family: November 2012

 This family was referred to me by another client of mine! I LOVE referrals!
It was super sunny and windy this day!But we made it work! ALSO..it was the OPENING day of deer season, he wasn't too happy that she decided to schedule on this day! :)

Extended Family Pictures: October 2012

Two sets of twins in the SAME family...with NO history of twins! WOW...I mean I come from a HUGE family and we have absolutely NO twins in our family! Adorable FAMILIES and seriously ALL of the kids are SO well behaved I love it! 

Nothum Family: October 2012

 Another Cute family! This day turned out to be a NICE day! Loved how these pictures turned out. I was a little nervous because of the time of day these were taken, but the lighting ended up being just PERFECT!

Pohlsander Family: October 2012

I sure have grown to LOVE this family over the last year. I feel like I AM part of their family now! I've taken each one of their birthday pictures and feel like I've watched them grow up this past year! Looking forward to the next time I get to do a session with this cute family of 6!
