Changing Directions | Wichita Photographer

Do what you love and you'll never work another day in your life.

I read that once. And now it has begun to resonate with me more deeply. Do what you love. Do what you love.

What I love is newborn photography. I like doing other types of photography, but I love newborns and babies and births. So on January 1st Breathtaking is going to refocus on what I love. If you'd like to have your family or children's portraits done by me, please book a session before the end of the year. I have limited availability as the Holidays grow closer. Fall is a busy time in our house. We cram 1 anniversary, 4 birthdays, and three major holidays into three months!

If you are expecting a baby, then I'm your girl. I will be spending some time retooling my website to reflect my new focus. I have some exciting things planned, so keep an eye out!

Extended! | Wichita Newborn Photographer

My family is currently in the process of coming down with what I think is the flu (booooo!) so I will not be taking any new sessions for the month of October to protect my clients from possible exposure. Because of this, I've decided to extend my newborn special into the month of November!

$100 off a newborn session booked and paid for in the months of October and November. Contact me for more information. This would make a really wonderful shower gift for an expectant Mama! Newborn sessions are done in the comfort of your own home. I bring it all with me and use beautiful natural light to create your newborn's very first images. :)

College Football Fans!

When I arrived to this session I made the embarrassing mistake of forgetting who this family 'represented'. Sheesh! I'm not a Kansas native and I'm not a college football fan so I'm a little lost with the whole thing. Anyway, I've been informed this is K-State and they're quite proud! K booked a family session during my Holiday Card Minis and silly me, I figured that three teens would be a breeze! They were some tough nuts to crack! I eventually got a couple smiles but it was hard work. Lord help me when I've got my own SIX teenagers! Eep! Hope you enjoy the sneakers, family of Kim. Can't wait to see the finished Christmas Card! :)

I'm pretty sure they were laughing at me here. I was forcing them to do mean things like hold hands.....
