A Love Story

Posted on July 20, 2013June 12, 2021 by Heather

I love that this love story is 10 years in the making. I love that this love story includes 4 beautiful children. I love that this love story includes authenticity. Tim and Brittany would the first to tell you that it’s not been easy, it’s not all roses and fairy dust but it’s worth it. Their love story involves moves, job changes, career changes and lots of laughs, heart and sacrifice. Their story involves surrendering daily to God. They are willing to do the hard part of working on marriage so they can have a day to celebrate 10 years. These are the love story I truly love.

Difference 10 years makes

Tim and Brittany celebrated their 10 year anniversary. Brittany surprised Tim with a vow renewal ceremony. It was awesome! In 10 years Tim and Brittany have welcomed 4 children (and still fit into her wedding dress!). They were all front and center to experience their parents declaring their love and commitment to each other. I have many more moments to share from this wedding renewal however I couldn’t let this beautiful family photograph wait.

Sweet Girls

Posted on June 12, 2013June 12, 2021 by Heather

I kidnapped my friends two oldest daughters so she could have some moments loving on her newborn. It was great fun for my two kids to have their friends here that they truly miss. Of course I had to take the opportunity while I had them to do a photography session. I feel it counts toward their 5 year and 3 year session that was rushed a few weeks back. I love capturing these two girls. Both have so many expressions and many precious things that make up who God created them to be. It’s a wonder to watch how unique and fearfully made both are.

A Lot to Accomplish in One Day (Part 2 – Newborn Session)

Meet Miss Adalyn. Isn’t she just beautiful? Everything about this baby girl is adorable! She was such a little model for our session. We got to try this bow and that on her, and this prop and that. It was great! I, of course, loved when she woke up so I could cuddle and love her back to sleep. There is something special about this little girl. I saw it in her when I first laid eyes on her. God has amazing plans for her life and I am so glad I get to watch to see what He has in store. Until then just enjoy this precious one.

A Lot to Accomplish in One Day (Part 1)

This family probably looks familiar to you. I get the very distinct pleasure of being their photographer (even though their mommy is becoming a very good photographer herself). What do you do when you need to photograph 3 year old session, a 5 year old session, family session and a newborn session. Why just make a day of it. I love spending time with this family so it sounded like an awesome plan to me! Since we did SO much in one day I decided to break up the sneak peek into two parts. So you are getting the sweet older girls and family today. Look for some really adorable newborn photographs of their very sweet sister tomorrow. Enjoy!

A Sweet Family

The Corn Family won a session through a fund raiser. I am so glad they did. They are the sweetest family. Abby is as smart as she is adorable. I love watching the special interaction she had with her daddy. He had her laughing and telling stories. It was very endearing. Micah is all boy climbing and exploring but stopping long enough to flash me a smile and show off those gorgeous blue eyes. I really enjoyed getting to know this family better and capturing them through photographs.

Smitten

Posted on October 9, 2012June 12, 2021 by Heather

Raleigh is smitten with her new baby sister Reaghan. She was full of ideas she would love to do with her sister. Even though Reaghan has a few years to grow before she can also enjoy all her big sister has planned, I know eventually she will be following her around as younger siblings often do. Reaghan was alert for most of our session, and even flashed her sweet dimple filled smile. These girls were a delight to photograph, it’s easy to see why their mommy is smitten with both of them. They are darling!

A Colorado Wedding

Posted on September 29, 2012June 12, 2021 by Heather

I was so excited when Brandon and Laura asked us to photograph their Colorado wedding. It wasn’t only because Colorado is one of my very favorite places to visit but Laura holds a dear place in my heart. I was so glad to be able to be there on her very special day. They had a perfect fall day for their wedding. Their wedding was small, which made it a nice, intimate setting. Laura’s dress was magnificent. I loved the how Brandon’s suspenders and bow-toe easily demonstrated Brandon’s natural personality. The whole day was relaxed and about enjoying the people we were their to celebrate. It’s always an honor tell the wedding day story for a great couple.

Near and Dear to My Heart

Posted on September 3, 2012June 12, 2021 by Heather

I have looked forward to photographing Anna’s engagement session for many, many years. She has patiently waited, earnestly prayed and quietly sought the person God had intended for her. As Anna’s best friend I did much of the same, you see Anna is one of the dearest people in my life for a thousand different reasons and not just any man would do. She is seriously one of the best people God has designed and the person that got to spend the rest of their life with her had to be something pretty amazing. Through a wonderful love story Eric came to be that man. I think what I like best about him is that he realizes the prize he has won when he ask for Anna’s hand and is thankful to God for the gift of her. What more could a best friend ask for?

Dream League

Posted on July 21, 2011June 12, 2021 by Heather

I had the opportunity to photograph a few basketball games through Dream League ( is Kansas City’s new NCAA Certified Pro-Am basketball league. The league is comprised of current and former college and professional athletes looking to prove themselves against the “best of the best”. ) This League is sponsered through Livin the Dream. http://www.livin-the-dream.com/#/home

“Livin’ The Dream is an organization geared towards the positive influence of all people through the game of basketball. At Livin’ The Dream we believe “Everything is possible for him who believes.”(Mark 9:23) and we help others realize the potential that lies within each of them to live out their dreams in today’s society. We encourage those people to dream and believe in order to achieve their lifelong goals. Livin’ The Dream inspires people of all ages with the love of Christ by using basketball as a teaching platform. We currently provide basketball camps, clinics, private skill development, youth basketball teams and national and international exhibition competitions against college and professional teams.”

I enjoyed getting to try to use different skills with photography. It was also fun to see such talented players play in one location. I look forward to photographing the Championship game on August 7th, 2011.
