Caroline turns one | St. Louis Children’s Photographers
Posted on November 30, 2011
Another Baby Plan graduate! These babies keep growing faster and faster! We have another graduate’s session this Friday and I just can’t believe it!
Caroline was SO sweet and hysterical because that girl can MOVE! She didn’t want to sit still so her poor momma was running back and forth trying to get her to pause just long enough for the shutter to click!





Melissa has had a quilt Grandma made at every session…
but I think this time is my favorite…



Oh I can’t believe we won’t be seeing this family anymore! Well, until baby #2 comes along I hope! I’ve known Melissa for SO long but it’s been great to get to know her again as an adult and mom. She’s incredible and they’ve had quite the year! Thank you so much for choosing us to capture Caroline this year you guys, it was seriously our pleasure!

We never take so long to get a sneak peek up but we are just drowning in work right now! It’s a good thing to be busy but it certainly slows down the blogging! SO just ONE teeny tiny peek tonight and a good ole’ long blog post coming soon! Because if anyone deserves to see a whole ton of photos it’s Christa and Jeff! We love them and their wedding was a blast! More coming soon guys, we promise!

A freebie to help you this Christmas…

Remember the ABC book I gave our family last Christmas? HERE is the link.
Well, as a Thanksgiving GIFT to you, I’m giving you the cover file! It wasn’t hard to create (if you have Photoshop) but it was SUPER time consuming! Hopefully if any of you were thinking about making this for someone I just got you one step closer to finishing!

Miles | St. Louis Newborn Photography
Posted on November 24, 2011
Can you believe tomorrow is Thanksgiving? WOW this fall flew by fast! I can’t believe I’ve waited so long to post these sweet shots of Miles… but this week has been so insane! Or last week was and this week I’ve been catching up I guess!
Miles was so great and his mom, Zayra, was just beautiful! It was so neat having her MIL and best friend at the session! Her husband is deployed right now and I’m sure he’s been dying to see these images! We were so honored to be able to capture these moments for this great family!

Are you dying over that tiny little crown? We were SO honored to get to photograph a few of these (found HERE!) and can’t wait to show you the little girl ones!









Thanks for your patience Z! We loved meeting you guys and getting to cuddle little Miles!

Happy Tuesday!
Posted on November 22, 2011
Oh MAN it is gloomy today. Rainy and cold. Totally gray outside. And heavy. So I came to work in sweatpants which somehow puts me in the BEST mood! I’m COMFORTABLE sitting here at my desk holding down the fort of KCCI while my parents are out of town this week. My heater is on under my desk, good music is playing LOUD (since no one else is here to bother) (my current FAVORITE song ever is “And Run” by He is We… seriously SO good!) and I’m cranking through some work. And I think Imo’s might just bring me a small pizza and soda in a couple of hours. Good stuff.
Because I’m in such a good mood I thought I’d share some random working shots Kim’s taken of me recently. Just the stuff that never gets blogged.
OH and I will be posting something tomorrow that might help you organize your personal photos… at least it helps me!
AND I think I’ll be having a HUGE Black Friday sale! Get ready you guys! A totally new endeavor never done here at Fresh Art AND an oldie buy goodie will be brought back… that just might rhyme with Dove Flight! HA! That will be posted at midnight on Thursday! Can you guess what the two announcements will be?
HA! I’m SO starting with this shot b/c it’s SO me. We are constantly testing the light for each other and I always make the stupidest face. BUT the birthing pose? That’s how I sit. ALL. THE. TIME. It drives Chris crazy!

Here’s what I was shooting (while I look totally pregnant! Yikes!):

Testing the light… but pretending like I’m just casually looking off into the distance. Nice huh? And YES. I wear sweats to sessions. So sue me. I love being comfy!




This one cracks me up because it nearly gave Kim a heart attack! This is their second story balcony (that was kind of rickety) and I just climbed right up. I blame my dad who let us climb tall ladders as little kids. And trees. I was an awesome tree climber. No fear of heights and very trusting of my balance! This was the Sanders maternity session and here is Levi at six months!
One of our favorite little dudes!
Oh yeah baby! Testing that light again AND seeing if a pose will work. I’m hot no?
We totally have more sneak peeks coming, a couple wedding posts from the best wedding ever, my Black Friday deals and tips on organizing! Whew! It’s a short+busy week!

Alli | Webster Groves High School Senior Photography
Posted on November 19, 2011
I’ve known Alli since she was a baby and I see her all the time at church but I guess I’ve never realized just how beautiful she’s become! I mean, she’s always been a cute kid but MAN is she a gorgeous! And yes, it totally makes me feel old!










The day before was SO cold and windy… we got SO lucky on the day of her shoot! And while the sun was disappearing FAST (I hate the end of fall when the light fades quickly… oh how we miss the summer nights!) Alli rocked it out changing and moving and working it so we could catch the end of the sun. She was just perfect!
Thank you so much Alli! You are beautiful and I can’t wait for you to see the rest!
