Hello

French Styled Shoot, The Abbott Kansas City

Styled Shoots

This editorial, French styled shoot was at The Abbott  in Kansas City. As the sole photographer for this editorial shoot, I wanted to use this beautiful space and juxtapose the softness of the bridal details with the hardness of the industrial background.   A huge thank-you to all the wonderful vendors and stunning models for […]

Engagement

Bailey and Matt’s luxury, downtown Kansas City engagement session is my favorite style to shoot.   The adorable couple moved beautifully in front of the camera, trying different poses and just having fun with each other! Being able to have variety is the key to capturing this luxury-style atmosphere in a session like this.  Bailey […]

Engagement

This editorial, downtown Kansas City engagement session is truly one of my favorite to date.   Fedra and Comron knew they wanted an editorial photographer, but were afraid they could not pull it off. I reassured them I would be able to deliver what they envisioned! During the session I showed the back of the […]

Loose Park in Kansas City is the perfect place to have a picnic on a normal occasion, but it’s even better for an engagement session!   It’s a classic and romantic setting that is always fun, it’s the perfect food for a loving couple to share, and you can have a sweet little date nite […]

Engagement

Kansas City in the spring is stunning, have I mentioned that before? Claire and Chase opted for a lovely picnic session in Loose Park, featuring their beloved dog Ace. I recommend popping some champagne for a fun session- it should always be mandatory at a picnic, engagement photos or not. A special thanks to The […]

Marissa + Austin’s Kansas City Spring Engagement Session

Engagement

Springtime in Kansas City is so gorgeous, it’s a wonder the city isn’t flooded with couples taking engagement photos! The lighting and the vibrant flowers made for a beautiful session with Marissa and Austin. Trekking all around, from Loose Park to the Plaza and finally to the Nelson Atkins Museum, these high school sweethearts made […]

Alyssa + Pete’s Romantic Kansas City Engagement Session

Engagement

Kansas City is for lovers… that’s the common saying, right? The hard backdrop of the concrete buildings with the softness and ease of the harmony between Alyssa and Pete made for an incredible pairing. Alyssa and Pete’s was one of our first engagement sessions of the year, and as they looked to be falling more […]
