Harper | St. Louis Newborn Photographers
Posted on May 10, 2010
On Mothers Day, we got to hang out with 6 day old little Harper…

This was one anticipated little girl! You might remember her story HERE. It was so amazing to see Amy with a baby in her arms, for Colton to have a sister and for Jim to be the Daddy to a little girl. It was the PERFECT way to spend our Mother’s Day!




Seriously, is she not gorgeous?? And she was so sleepy! Which is great for us, like putty in our hands!


This is also a great time to share that we have big plans to expand our offerings for newborns! We will still be offering the full Fresh Art newborn & maternity experience, which includes us coming to your home, but beginning in June we’ll also be able to offer studio newborn sessions. Not only will this allow us to reduce the rate for someone who is only wanting a newborn session or willing to come to us, but also allow us to be able to photograph more newborns. Win, win! Jodie & I will be busy getting ready a dedicated studio space in her home and we couldn’t be more excited! More details soon!

the growing Heddell family – [St. Louis Maternity Photographers]
Posted on December 22, 2009
So our plan on Saturday was to meet up with the Heddell family for an outdoor maternity mini-session… only after attempting our first family session of the day resulting in all of us being miserable and freezing and wind whipped, we quickly turned it into an indoor at-home session! Not only was the temperature warm in the Heddell home, so was the conversation and just getting to know their sweet little family.
Christina was gorgeous and glowing

with the cutest little baby bump

and Jay was great and fun with an apparent hidden talent as a stylist (::snicker::)

but there was a little miss that maybe stole the show

okay, so she completely stole the show!

this gorgeous girl is about to be a big sister! such a little peanut and a such a sweetie!

Thanks for the great *warm* afternoon, Heddell Family! We look forward to returning to meet your sweet new baby! And I’m still thinking Christmas Eve would be pretty darn awesome!

at home with the Niehaus family – {St. Louis Family Photographers}
Posted on October 27, 2009
Last week Kim and I got to meet up with the Niehaus family at their beautiful home. We had talked about going somewhere, but ultimately, Jessica wanted to capture her family AS THEY ARE. IN THEIR HOME. DOING THEIR THING.
And that is freaking awesome.
I LOVE that.
Not one posed photo. No random places (although I do sometimes love random places!). Nothing planned or rehearsed or staged. JUST THEM. AT HOME.
We captured play time inside and out, bath time, books, bottles and bed. It was simple. And perfect.









Thanks Jessica, Brian, Gannon and Flynn!
