"S" Family {Family Session // Southwest Missouri Family Photographer}

I met up with this darling family a few weeks ago to take their family pictures.  I was very excited when they contacted me since I'd taken some family pictures a few years before.  The girls have grown so much and have only gotten cuter.  They informed me that their names were Rapunzel and Barney and so that's how they were addressed through the session. I think they really got a kick out of it.  I know I did. :p  I love shooting at this location, too.  It's such a beautiful little farm.

I had a wonderful time with them and their pictures turned out great.  The girls did awesome and we only had one tiny cry that only lasted a few minutes.  And it made for a really cute picture, so it's ok. :)

Leave them a comment and tell them how cute they are! :)

And one more for fun.  Look at how much they grew between sessions! And cuter than ever!  I am so grateful when I am given the opportunity to watch clients grow throughout the years.  I love being able to share these memories with them and offer them the opportunity to have their growth and love captured.

Tony + Myra {Anniversary // Southwest Missouri Couple Photographer}

I had the privilege of taking one year anniversary pictures for this lovely couple a few weeks ago.

They have been great friends of ours for a long time.  Tony is a very longtime and best friend of my husband's (longtime as in childhood!).  When Tony met Myra we acquired another wonderful friend. We have had a lot of great times and have made many memories together (carry on my wayward son!!) :) They tied the knot in last June 9th and I am very happy that I could take their anniversary pictures.  I hope next year we have a one year anniversary of taking anniversary pictures for their 2nd anniversary. ;)

Oh and how can I forget Lily! That cute pooch is their dog-ter Lily!

Without further ado, here are their pictures! :)  Be sure and leave them a comment telling them how awesome they are!

So cute.

And I HAD to include this last picture.  THIS is THEM.  I love this picture so much.  I don't think you could encapsulate a little family any better than this. :p

Congratulations on 1 year guys!! We look forward to celebrating many more years with you.

Greg + Reanna {Mini Session // Southwest Missouri Portrait Photographer}

I had the pleasure of photographing these two gorgeous people about a week ago.  Reanna is another wonderful friend I made while working in the Career Services office at Pitt.  I seriously love every person I met while I worked there! It had been a while since I'd last seen her, so it was great to see her again and meet her husband!

These two were awesome.  As you can see in the pictures, they're super photogenic and love each other very much.  I love taking pictures of couples because they make my job so easy.  I love watching couples interact with each other.  I just have to sit back and let them do their thing, and the pictures turn out perfectly.  Each couple is different, but you can always see the love they have for one another no matter how they interact.

Thank you guys so much for asking me to take your pictures!! I had so much fun!

Be sure and leave Greg and Reanna a comment below to tell them how awesomely photogenic they are!
