Curls of Cuteness!!! – Child Photography Eudora KS

Curls, blue eyes and tons of cuteness! Girls will drool over him in years to come! What a fun session! Although he wasn’t too happy in the barrel at first, he made wonderful pictures just by being his adorably handsome self!

Ups and downs- Lawrence KS


There are many events in life that almost demand having a photographer present to capture and frame the memories for posterity: a wedding, the welcoming home of a newborn child, graduation. But many don’t realize that sometimes, the every-day moments at home, like sitting around on the sofa or cooking in the backyard are just as important to preserve as the momentous occasions in life. That is why we do all of our family and newborn sessions in our clients’ homes. Some of our most fun photography jobs have been centered around capturing the ups and downs–the unscripted moments at home. When I started as a photographer, I would practice at home, using my family members as guinea pigs. My first real ‘session’ featured my son and a bowel of spaghetti. He was only one your old at the time, and got marinara all over his high-chair and himself, but it made for beautiful and colorful images. So, next time you catch your child making a mess and she looks at you with her innocent, puppy-dog eyes, instead of sending her to her room, take a picture, or call me and I’ll take a few for you! :)

Oh, her eyes!-children’s photography Lawrence KS

There is something soothing about looking into the unique grey-blue shade found in newborns’ eyes. I remember waiting with anticipation for my son’s eyes to mature, and hoping that he would keep the same baby-blues that my husband has been blessed with. This baby got to keep hers, luckily, and my lens loved them!


All smiles from Weston

At 7 months many children reach certain milestones such as sitting up, lunging forward (to crawl), and standing while holding on to something. Here Weston proved to have an additional milestone: cuteness all session long. What a fun little tyke!



Grandma at 100 Years!

As a child I wondered how it would be like to be 100 years old. Last December I was able to visit my 100 year old grandmother in New York a few days before the 100 birthday celebration my family gave her.

Here she is trying to trim a few years.

New kid with the Blocks

Lola and Matt Block were such beautiful new parents! They were completely happy to show off their newborn, Liren. She literally is the new kid on the block with the Blocks! … and a cute one at that. Their newborn photography session went so well. For new parents, it is common that newborns cry, get hungry, and wet whatever they are on during a photography session and in this case, I think Liren did so well in cooperating in taking wonderful posed and photojournalistic pictures.

It’s a girl! The Rabers…

Iliana and Lloyd are such a cute couple! I used the above image on baby shower invitation I made for them.
