Happy Easter! With Eli + CJ

Little CJ, along with his big brother, Eli, are constant little rays of sunshine for us. With CJ doing his one year of the Sprout Up package, we get to see both their little faces every three months, and sometimes for special events and holidays. This time, we did some sweet Easter portraits with them, complete with bunnies, baskets, and easter eggs. What an adorable little pair of brothers! Happy Easter, Eli and CJ!

Nathalie + Todd | Round Two!

Since the first half of Nathalie and Todd's engagement session was in the extremely chilly winter months (10 degrees outside during a winter storm!), we went ahead and split the session half and half so that we could do some portraits for them during the warm spring weather. This time, we stayed in Lawrence for their session, running around downtown, through various parks, and up and down alleyways. As always, we had a blast with them!

Tess + Julian

Meet Tess, a modern day Mayan beauty, and her breathtakingly adorable son [and amateur photographer], Julian. When we first got to know Tess and Julian, Tess was choosing between internships for her design skills and needed head shots to send in for each option. Instead of looking for the run of the mill, boring old head shots, she wanted something that was more modern and showed more of her personality.

So, we wandered around through downtown, stopping by some of our favorite places for drinks and snacks and let her stay in her natural element. Her beauty can really take your breath away.


In addition to just doing head shots for Tess, she wanted some shots of her and Julian together as well. High on energy and even higher in handsomeness, Julian has heard suggestions more than once that he become a model for his future profession. This has led him to tell everyone he meets that his plan for the future is to become a 'professional poser'.


Incredibly charming, and a real shutterbug himself, taking the time to do some fun mother-son shots with the help of Julian's suggestions along the way was absolute non-stop entertainment. A miniature creative genius and adorable to boot, he certainly lit up in front of the camera.


At the end of our evening wandering through downtown, playing in the park, and grabbing ice cream together, we only had one last thing on our agenda: to hang around Tess and Julian more often.

{Kasher}

Our good friends, Mike and Jen, have a sweet little prince named Kasher. Instant best friends with our son, Miles, Kasher never ceases to warm our hearts and turn a bad day into something beautiful. Of course, after this trip to the park, we made sure to sneak him a few cookies to thank him for keeping us company. With bright blue eyes and a smile to brighten any day, we're happy to have this little guy in our lives.
