Brad and Amelia and family

Well, we went to Wyandotte County Park on Saturday evening to photograph Brad and Amelia and Katie and Josh. This is such a fun family. I have known them for years, since I photographed their wedding. It is so much fun to photograph a wedding and then get to go back and photograph the family as it grows. We had lots of fun Saturday, and hope to see them again when Josh turns 1. Here are some shots from the park.

Jason and Breana

Had an engagement session with Jason and Breana on Sunday afternoon. They are getting married next spring at Wyandotte County Park, so we went there to do their E-session. The trees are turning color, and the afternoon sun was perfect. Here are some images that we made. Enjoy.

A busy summer.

Been so busy I haven’t had time to keep up on the blog or anything. I think maybe I need to hire someone to do some of the stuff I have to do, just so I can keep up. Oh well, we are headed into Fall wedding season, and Senior Portrait season. Fall is my favorite time of the year. I love having the windows open and the fresh air (cough, cough, sneeze). Oops, forgot the allergies. Oh well. Anyway, here is Matthew, a recent senior session we had. Matthew is a junior this year at Truman High School, and is going to be one of our senior reps this year. Thanks Matthew.

Matthew and Nicole

Matthew and Nicole got married on July 3rd. They had the wedding and reception at The Rhapsody in Independence, Mo. I have to say that this is one of the nicest venues there is in the Kansas City area. The building and grounds are beautiful, the area that the bride got ready in was perfect for pictures, and the people that run this place really have it together. They were very nice to everyone and very helpful to me and my staff. If you are looking for a place to have your wedding, I would recommend you check them out. Here are some images from the wedding.

Mark and Rachelle

Took Mark and Rachelle to downtown Kansas City on Saturday to finish up their bridal portraits. Had an absolutely fabulous time with them. We did their wedding back on April 4th. Hope you enjoy these images.

Saturday’s Senior Session

We had a couple of kids out on Saturday for some portraits. They have actually graduated, so this was not a REAL Senior Session. But, got a few good images for the portfolio. But first, I have to share this image of yours truly. I learned on Saturday that you should never, ever, let your assistant be holding a camera while you are trying to demonstrate what you want to a senior. Especially if that assistant really, really, owes you several shots as payback for what you have done to her.  Paybacks are heck.

April 4th Wedding

We had a beautiful bride and wonderful groom yesterday for our first April wedding this year. We were in Lee’s Summit, Mo. for the wedding and Grandview, Mo. for the reception. I got to use my new camera yesterday for the first time on a wedding, and I must say that I am totally impressed with this tool. It was really fun to get to work with these great people. As we were leaving we talked to the Bride and Groom about doing a Trash the Dress session. She wants to do it, so watch for my first TTD session coming soon. Meanwhile, enjoy a few images from Rachelle and Mark’s beautiful day.

Marina Irene

Well, here we are in Austin Texas, meeting Sara’s brand new granddaughter. This is Marina Irene. We are having a wonderful trip. The weather has been perfect so far. We just finished a wonderful dinner of smoked steaks. Anyway, enjoy these pictures of Marina.

Squaw Creek NWR

A couple of fellow photographers and I went to Squaw Creek NWR on Sunday. It is located NW of St. Joseph, MO. There are about 600,000 Snow Geese there right now on their northward migration. A sure sign of spring. Had a blast, and shot over 1000 pictures. Here are a few that I liked. Enjoy.

Valentine’s Day

Well, we shot a little wedding on Valentine’s Day at the City Market. It was a cute setup and 21 couples got married that day. I will post some pictures after I get the bride and groom’s permission.
