These natural and outdoor family portraits in KC, MO had me smiling ear to ear while editing! We only accept a small number of family portrait sessions every year, but they are always such a wonderful and relaxing way to spend an afternoon. Baby Des is almost six months old, and he sure is an adorable munchkin! We spent the afternoon hanging out in Kansas City’s Loose Park. Francesca and Derek brought a few colorful quilts, and the October weather was perfect.

We actually photographed Francesca and Derek’s Kansas City wedding at the Loose Mansion in KC three years ago. Photographing our past couples’ growing families is definitely an amazing feeling. Congratulations to these two happy folks and an equally happy Baby Desmond!
