This is and always has been one of my favorite things to do! Some photographers love portraits. They get energy and excitement dressing up their subjects, moving around lights until they perfectly highlight cheekbones, posing their subjects with head tilts and soft fingers…nope. Not me. Invisibility appeals to my introverted nature. To simply study, watch […]

Welcome to one of my favorite engagement sessions this year! The weather was perfect. I mean, Jordan was a little chilly in a dress, but I thought the weather was perfect lol. ;) Such a beautiful day to drive out to Klondike Park. We have been working with Jordan’s family since 2015 when I photographed […]

Hadley and Dan are a fun couple of humans. They have hilarious dogs, and they make each other laugh a lot… what more could I ask for? I gotta say… things are a little weird right now, and it felt kind of comforting in its normalcy to just sit and edit photos of happy people […]

Ok, Monica and Matt have been engaged for awhile. We just finally got together to do this! I mean, they are getting married next month so it was about time right!? At least I HOPE they are getting married next month (wear your masks people!) Big thanks to Cole for being a true team player […]

This was my first engagement session back after MONTHS of not photographing people! I have been capturing beautiful shots of all of the bread I’ve been baking, but that’s quite a different story. It was nice to interact with humans again! At a safe distance of course. ;) I’m thrilled that I was able to […]

Union Station in St. Louis has truly added some fun new stuff! And Ashley and Eric gave me a chance to check it all out. First a few photos with the trains before they took off on their Polar Express expeditions. LOVE this dress Ashley! (If ever you’re done with it I will happily take […]

Leslie and Joe really wanted to shoot while they were in town even though the weather was refusing to cooperate. So we went for it! And had a great time despite it being damp and dreary. Kinda gives the images a moody feel. I like it. ;) Props to the barista at Kaldi’s for making […]

Andrea and Chip are a fun and laid back couple… although they told me at the very beginning of our session that they were going to be awkward. LIES!! I was expecting stiff expressions or extreme shyness, and there was none! We had a lovely time walking around the CWE and then took a short […]

I cannot wait for the wedding of these two lovebirds! You guys, thank you so much for having me up to Chicago so that we could hang out and get to know each other better. From the dinner recommendations, to meeting your sweet pup and exploring your neighborhood…such a great time. MIZ! :) L Photographie […]
