the H siblings | north missouri children's photographer

Now this is what I am talking about when you need to just let children be children and capture their raw emotion. Nothing much posed here. A few simple props, but their personality is all 100% natural. :) I just can not express enough how much I love images like these. :) I hope you enjoy their sweet childhood beauty. ♥
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
And a fun little outtake. Snack break! Yum! ♥





AHHHH...just because summer is so much fun. Just a lovely couple randoms of my sweet boy. Summer time is always the best for outdoor play. Dirt, sweat, non-matching clothes. And you can't go wrong with a tool box full of tools! ;) It's pretty awesome to be this young and have no worries. You don't have a care in the world...especially about what you look like! LOL So just venture out and have a wonderful weekend. Care free but safe of course ;)

My little farmer is so proud of "his" bales. As a child, summer time was such a great time to make memories. I loved to help out on the farm. Haying season and building fence were fun to me (yeah it's hard work) but I loved being outside with my family. I am so glad we can pass this on to our youngsters! ♥

It's all okay ♥

Somedays I really feel overwhelmed. I think it's a mixture of taking care of two children with my husband gone working, trying to build a new house and trying to continue on with my photography dream. I don't expect people to watch my kids all the time but a break here and there would be so nice. And then I also get this sick feeling every time I drive past my grandma's old house and know that she isn't there anymore. I can't stop in and visit or buzz her on the phone. It breaks my heart over again everyday. So then I look for the good things in life to keep me going. God is always there and I should pray more often than I do. I just need to remember all my wonderful blessings and go on with the day. I want to use this blog not only for my photography from this point on, but little everyday randoms. I want to share as a photographer, an artist a mother and a wife. To share my joys, my sadness, my anger and so on. We all deal with it. It's just human to do so. I hope you come back to visit. I enjoy the work I do and without you all I wouldn't be able to pursue my dream. ♥ I will be posting a little preview from my most recent session soon! Very excited! :)
