A Day At The Park

by Kcityphotography, posted in Photoshoots

I met with Sarah, Shane, and their adorable family this weekend in Parkville. They picked this location based off of our Top 10 Photo Locations in KC post. It was a gorgeous day — in the 70s — in February!!

Their three sweet girls were a riot. They didn’t want to say “cheeeese,” but we could get them to say “Anna,” “Elsa,” and “Frozen.”

At one point, they were dancing on the bridge singing “Let it gooooo, let it gooo!” How cute is that?

Since it was so nice, it was really busy — and joggers kept trying to interrupt our bridge shots. But we still got some great ones!

We walked past the bridge to look at the water, and then decided we may get our youngest princess Aarabella to smile if we used the swings. Who complains about swinging? No one, that’s who!

Brr! A February Family Shoot At The Lake

by Kcityphotography, posted in Photoshoots

It was unseasonably warm this weekend. My photographer self was thrilled, because this means it’s photo time! On Sunday, I met up with Jordon and Ethan — and their adorable family. Seriously, look at this little guy:

We met at Willmore Lodge at Lake of the Ozarks. I was raised at the Lake, so I jump at any opportunity to come back — and a photoshoot seemed like the perfect reason to me! It’s gorgeous at the Lodge, with a stunning lake view.

And while it was warmer than it usually is in February, when you get down by that water — brrrrr. But, despite the wind, and a newborn — we managed!! Can’t even tell everyone was cold, right?

One of my favorite stories from our blustery shoot is from the oldest daughter, Ayden.

Her mom, Jordon, wanted to make sure we got the shirt text in the shot below (they’re so cute!). So, I had to tell her: “move your beautiful hair, it keeps blowing in the shot because it thinks it’s the superstar here!” She thought that was hilarious, but it helped her remember to move her hair if the wind blew it over the words!

I’m sure the Shackelford family will be full of love this Valentine’s Day — I hope Holden, Ayden, and Cameron spoil them!!
