Twelve months. Real moments. One handcrafted film and album your family will cherish for a lifetime.
Sure, you could capture a single moment. But what if you could remember the whole season?
This one-of-a-kind offering is designed for Kansas City families who want more than portraits — they want their real life documented as it unfolds.
Through monthly or seasonal sessions, gentle storytelling, and handcrafted films and albums, you'll receive a living record of your family's year — full of emotion, movement, and meaning.
This is raw, documentary storytelling that few photographers offer — and even fewer do with both photo and film.
A Year of Becoming, Remembered Forever
Because the ordinary days are the ones you’ll miss most.
This is not a traditional photo session.
There are no matching outfits, no stiff poses, no pressure for perfection.
The Milestone Membership is an invitation to slow down and let your real life be witnessed — exactly as it is. Over the course of a year, we’ll capture your family’s everyday beauty: the sacred chaos, the quiet tenderness, and the in-between rhythms that often go unnoticed.
It’s about storytelling, not staging.
Presence, not performance.
Legacy, not just “likes.”
Each session is two hours long — giving your family time to settle into being fully present. You’ll receive a proofing gallery after every session to thoughtfully choose your favorite images, and at the end of the year, you’ll receive:
— A handcrafted Family Legacy Film that brings it all to life
— A timeless, custom lay-flat album of your favorite images
— A complete gallery archive of moments you never want to forget
This is for the families who understand that time moves fast — but stories last forever.
And through photo and film, we’ll create something your children’s children can hold.
I’m not here to stage a perfect version of your life—I’m here to witness the real one. The quiet glances. The toddler twirls in the kitchen. The way your baby finds your eyes and feels safe. These moments may feel ordinary now, but they are holy ground. They’re the kind of memories that anchor a family’s story.
What this looks like in real time:
I show up like a friend, not a director.
I let your kids be kids. Wild, shy, messy—it all belongs.
I capture movement, sound, connection—especially the things you’ll miss in the blur of daily life, because I believe that's where the beauty lives.
This isn’t just about art—it’s about legacy. About honoring what God is doing in and through your family right now. The chaos, the calm, the sacred in-between.
Your family’s story is already unfolding. I just get the honor of telling it.
