A new direction

I've been wanting to move to a new direction in my portraiture work. More of a lifestyle / documentary style. I believe capturing people in real moments has a stronger and longer lasting impact then staging people in front of a camera and pressing the shutter. Luckily a few friends recently had the same idea and allowed me to capture their family over the course of a few hours one cold winter afternoon.  I'm really pleased with what we were able to capture and hope these images bring them joy for years to come. 

Gotta feed the fur baby's before we get started.  

Whether it's a human baby, or a fur baby, a mothers work is never done.  

Getting ready.  

Hey Dad, can you help me out here? 

Thanks Dad.  

Hey buddy, what's that Thing your looking at me through? 

OMG!!!!!! I'm so HANGRY!!!!!!!!  

Break time.  

Can't forget Eddy.  

Kisses and snuggles until next time!

The Princesses and the Phone

I took this shot in the River Market just north of Downtown Kansas City. I didn't notice until I started looking at the shots on my computer the two little girls in Disney Princes  costumes. Kind of made the shot for me.
