Cora and Ethan | Wedding in Bolivar MO

Cora and Ethan got married on a warm evening out in the country near Bolivar. A field, their people, and a lot of wildflowers. They said their vows under a big tree, white folding chairs set out in the grass with their friends and family gathered around them.

Hey there! It’s Emma today, and I get to tell you about Ayden. We ran on the same cross country team for four years. She was someone I looked up to then, and still do today. She has been like the older sister I never had.

Studio Session with Hannah

I love studio sessions because with a blank background, all the focus is on the subject. Sessions like these have so much room for creativity and can be so fun!

Sweet Ivy was the first to try our spring mini set with Makenzie. A favorite dress, buckets of flowers, big twirls, and full-body laughs. No front teeth required!

Vintage Editorial with Ellaina Porter in the 417

What do you think of when you hear the word “vintage”? For me, vintage meant fashion, old money, dramatic poses and stylistic photos, and I wanted to truly capture the essence of that word.
