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.
Brand Photos for Calendar Organization
There's nothing that makes me feel more put-together than having my calendar filled in and organized. I love my color-coded weekly agenda. Lily joined us for this Happyologie shoot.
Happy Spring with Hannah Painter
With springtime finally here, I was so excited to be able to capture the joy that comes with this season of new beginnings and growth.
Hannah did a perfect job of showing that essence of happiness!

Ellaina Porter is a Bolivar High School senior, and Sophie photographed her athletic studio session. Swing the leg, fix the jacket, pop the knee. These two tried so much movement!

Studio Session with Kayla in the 417
We had Kayla over to the studio for a brand shoot!
After that shoot, we did a fun spring mini. I loved getting to use some of the new backdrop colors! (This cream color is one of my favs.)
Getting out the door for your photo session
Outfits, snacks, spare clothes, and a place for every shoe. A few things to prepare before family photo day, with room for your own crew’s routine.
Mollie Stimpson Studio Session
One thing I love about studio sessions is the room to try your own ideas. From the outfits to the poses, Mollie totally rocked this session!
Morgan & Baby Anaiyah Valentine Mini
This session was so fun! Despite babies doing baby things, we were able to get some really cute shots!
Baby Rachel’s 6 Month Session
Baby Rachel is almost 6 months and we had to celebrate with a studio session!
Her whole family is so sweet and her mom and sister came to make sure she was doted on the whole time. They even FaceTimed dad in!
Mini Galentines
These girls were so so fun to have at the studio! They were laughing, brought ideas for posing and it’s just so good to celebrate friendship.
Eisley hosted this session at the studio and did an amazing job creating a fun space for these friends.
K-Life Galentines Event in Bolivar MO
We got to photograph the K-Life Galentine’s event last week and I’m still smiling about it.
First of all, Valentine’s Day is fine… but it’s not nearly as cool as a room full of girls hyping each other up, taking pics together, and having the most fun with it. Like, sorry, but Galentine’s wins.
Makenzie and Savannah Galentines
I have known Savannah since we were kids! We grew up together, ended up rooming together before I got married in college and have done so much life together. And Makenzie started babysitting my kids a couple of summers ago, and then I ended up hiring her in my business.
Kim & Jeremy Valentine Mini
Eisley photographed her parents, Kim and Jeremy, for this Valentine Mini in the studio, with a mix of couple portraits and fun poses.
Snow Day Photos: Stephens Boys
What is it about a band of brothers running across the snow together that makes you feel like you’re witnessing greatness? Haha!
Senior Photos in the Snow: Eisley
Eisley is such a joy and I really wanted this mini snow day session to bring that out while also capturing her soft, introspective side.
It’s been so fun to get to know her as she has worked with me (Hi, Jordan here!) at the studio. She is kind, thoughtful, super fun and down for trotting through the frigid temps for some snowy senior photos.
Noelle’s Valentine Mini
Noelle’s Valentine Mini at Jordan Brittley Studio in Bolivar, Missouri. We’re glad you came in, Noelle!
