    Top 5 Trends to Celebrate your Wedding Anniversary During a Pandemic

    Weddings are a representation of union, love, and the creation of a new family. That's why celebrating anniversaries is particularly significant, especially for those newlyweds that care about commemorating their newfound love. Or perhaps for those long-lived loves that still want to honor their union! While facing this pandemic, the whole world has had to lockdown, and people now have to change their lives to adjust to this new reality. There cannot be big parties or family

    Laney's Senior Session | Senior 2020

    Laney was delightful! And boy does she take some great portraits I am so excited to share here. She is graduating from Rolla Senior High School in 2020 and I am so excited to share her senior portrait session with everybody on the blog. Laney started out at the salon with her Mom, Rocky (also delightful), where she got all prepped for our time together. She got hair and makeup styled at Benton Square Salon and Spa by Ashley Peterson! After being pampered, styled, and loved on

    5 Things You Should Trust Your Wedding Photographer With

    Trust is the key ingredient to any relationship and this is true for the relationship you have with your wedding photographer. There's a reason you chose them to capture the most important day of your life. While you may have a vision of how you want some of your images to turn out, for the most part, you are going to have to put a lot of trust in your photographer. Trusting your photographer a little more in these main areas will not only result in better images for you to r

    Makayla's -Bourbon, MO Senior Session

    I ventured with Makayla and her Mom down to Onondaga Cave State Park to capture her senior portraits. The two of them were so fun to adventure around with on a crisp Missouri spring evening. We laughed until our cheeks hurt. It was a great time! The weather was awesome and Makayla had the most adorable style and the sweetest smile! What a bright future she has ahead of her. There is such excitement in new beginnings. She is just getting started and has all the world at her fe

Snowy Days and A 2019 Mantra

    The Farm Diaries - Snowy Days and A 2019 Mantra

    It snowed last weekend on the farm...A LOT. There was so much snow probably the most snow we have had since we started living here. It was magical! I love a good snow. I sat inside, watched it snow, and drank coffee. I was in heaven...as long as I didn't have to go outside. Poor Jarrod though had to go out and feed in the freezing cold. He works so hard. I am super proud of him. He is living his dream and he never complains about the long hours or the hard work. Sometimes whe

    Kim & Thomas Engagement Session

    I am a little behind on blogging this session but considering it snowed today at my house I feel like it is appropriate to post these today! Kim and Thomas were such good sports because it was FREEZING during this session and the wind did not do us any favors. Despite the cold we captured the love between these two in their St. James engagement session. Their wedding is in June and I could not be more excited to be doing their wedding photos! We caught a little bit of snow du

    Kelsey & Jeremy ~ Engagement Session at Shaw Nature Reserve

    Kelsey and Jeremy are such a dream couple. They were so loving during their session and I hardly had to give them any direction because they were so at ease with each other. They even brought their adorable son, Ashton, along! It was cuteness overload all around. We spent an evening at the amazing Shaw Nature reserve near Gray Summit, MO. Where we were surrounded by flowers, ferns, and grasses galore. #RollaWeddingPhotographer #WeddingPhotographer #MissouriWeddingPhotographe

    Growth Seasons-Sunday Soul Sessions

    I am currently in a growth season in all aspects of my life. I am stretching and learning and reaching outside limited thinking and current beliefs of what I think I am capable of and what I perceive as possible. Some of it is self inflicted as I am always trying to grow and some is just life. It has been a real struggle the last few months but I am working through it and sometimes I have to take a step back to self reflect, reevaluate, and decide how to proceed. I want to sh
    5 Easy Tips To Getting the Most Out of Your Wedding Pictures

    5 Easy Tips To Getting the Most Out of Your Wedding Pictures

    1) Consult Your Photographer Before Planning There are prime times for outdoor photography so to get the most out of your day check with your photographer and figure out a timeline before you book any dates, times, or venues. For example, if you want creamy and dreamy ceremony pictures but you schedule your ceremony outdoors at high noon, you may be disappointed. Another thing to consider is sunset. If you schedule your ceremony at 5pm and sunset is at 6pm that does not leave

    I have been photographing this family for 3 years now and every year these two girls continue to grow into very graceful, funny, and sweet young ladies! I love this family.
