Family Pictures on KU Campus

Here is a teaser of a fun session of an extremely fun family! Now this is just half of the family so stay tuned!

Maternity & Newborn sessions- music video included

When I was pregnant with my son, I felt like I was the most beautiful woman in the world. I really can’t identify with the sentiment that the extra weight and bloating makes you feel unattractive. For me it was an enhancement, not a hindrance, to my self-image. The last maternity session I shot really took me back to that time.

The mother was positively radiant. I met her and her husband when I took their wedding pictures last year. I loved taking their pictures then, and loved taking their pictures now. They are such a fun, down-to-earth and beautiful couple! And now, they have their little one in their arms, the now have the added glow I notice on new parents. Who, in spite of the reduced hours of sleep, just beam of excitement to have their family grow with love.

Couldn’t get enough of the cuteness? Watch their video. Now the lyrics may not match this couple much ut the rhythm of the music was just perfect.

Engagement and family pictures in one! Enjoy the video!

What a fun session! I loved the cowboy hat Steven brought along for the session. And my favorite part was when his son picked the wild flowers for Mary Ann (which he did on his own) it made such a great picture!

Engaged in Kansas!

“Finally got it right” hopefully all grooms (and brides) think this way as they make the choice to get married. This song by Fooling April fit in perfectly with Sarah and Austin’s engagement shoot.
Enjoy!

Alicia & Christopher

It’s so rare to see puppy love in engaged couples anymore. It seems like more often than not, marriage proposals are little more than an exercise in practicality rather than an expression of love. Not so with this couple. I have yet to meet a couple so in love. It was really cute to see how they interact with each other. As they gazed into each others’ eyes, lovingly held hands, and shared gentle kisses, an aura of love enveloped every shot. Let me assure, those smiles are genuine.





Hina & Nilam’s Nikkah Ceremony

Having shot Hina and Nilam’s engagement party a few months back was a beautiful experience with all the rich colors, music and dancing. As I participated in Hina and Nilam’s Nikkah Ceremony, I fell in love with the colors, family unity, and traditions all over again. I loved the henna paintings on the bride’s hands and all the jewelery they wore.
