There is no better way to wrap up September than to share an awesome senior session.  Dylan is a mentor, soccer star, and has been dating his high school love since their freshman year.

Melts. My. Heart.

Dylan, Congrats on all of your accomplishments!  Best wishes for the greatest  senior year ever and an even brighter future. Dream Big ***

I am so lucky to call Sarah and Adam friends.  Getting to hang with them and their little boy Jack is always fun and when it came time to take photos, it was just that.  I got to catch up with them while Jack ran free.  And I mean ran…the. whole. time.  He was busy exploring and even practiced his prank skills by ringing a doorbell and running away (wonder who he gets it from?) 😀

Man ohh man am I excited to share these with you!  This dynamic group of 6 made for some of my favorite family photos ever.  These are also really cool and special because I have known Gretchen for a long time, and now I get to see her as a wonderful mother to Grace and Mason.

Sweet Grace

And Mr. GQ himself, Mason

Her boyfriend Mark and his 2 handsome boys, Markie and Mitch, also joined for photos.  I absolutely love this brother duo!

When I spotted this little field of yellow flowers, I just knew great things were in store…favorites!

I can never pass up a weeping willow by a grey blue pond…

This group was so great because when it started drizzling on us they didn’t complain a bit, instead, they decided that getting ice cream was an alright alternative 🙂  I also think Mitch was the best ice cream cone eater I’ve seen … lol

And one last stop, after ice cream…

Thank you so much Gretchen and Mark for a fun afternoon! Until next time ***

After rescheduling numerous times throughout the week -long monsoon we seemed to have, we met up in this patch of beauty at the local park.  With perfect light streaming down, Stephanie resembled an angel.

And just in case you were wondering, another little boy will be joining the family in July 🙂

Because I can’t get enough of how pretty Stephanie is…

Clayton and Stephanie, thank you so much for being patient with our crazy Missouri weather.  Best wishes for a safe delivery in July, I can’t wait to meet him! ***
