Welcome to the VCP BLOG

My friend and mentor, Ginnifer Heinrichs co-owns and operates a gorgeous Wedding Venue, Daffodil Hill, in Oklahoma City. She recently hosted a motherhood session day and I was on the first plane to take part. This mother was absolutely stunning, and shooting her with fresh eyes in a new place was really inspiring. My biggest […]

I met Amy years ago through photography, and again when I used the film lab she worked at. Finally, we were able to meet in person so I could document her family in Oklahoma. We gathered at sunset in the wildflower field she held dear. Amy laughed as I was introduced to shooting in the […]

Kate and her babies on a lazy spring day. The wind gently swayed through their backyard, making the light dance across the grass. They snuggled and played and looked for shapes in the clouds until it was time for a snack. There is no prep necessary when snuggling for photos. The process allows me to […]

Fresh air, fragrant blooms, wet grass, and clean white linen. These are the things that Spring brings. My heart always welcomes the next season, especially the later days of lighter skies and all of the blooms bursting to be seen around town. The Stewart family gets to celebrate another trip around the sun with their […]

Kristin and Stephen are nearing their wedding day at The White Barn at Padgett Place this Spring. Their love story is a goody and photographing them, a dream! Their sunset engagement session was on a frigid day in November, and somehow these two were able to stay cozy “or at least look cozy” on the […]

New Motherhood is a trip. It sometimes feels like the world is going 100mph while you are in the slow lane bumper to bumper with semi-trucks that will not let you go around. The little bubble you live in is just a blurry mess of cries, no sleep, all day snuggles, new anxieties, bliss, and […]

Meramec River Family Session Long story short, I met Lana at the Missouri Art Ed Conference this Spring and she had no choice but to help me out! Little did I know, we would stay connected and plan to shoot her gorgeous family session this summer. This family has got to be the most chill […]

Sunset Bluffs, a Blonde, and a Daniff Jennifer and Honey are the best of friends and what better way to commemorate time together than a photo shoot playing and enjoying each other. We headed out to Sunset Bluffs in Washington, Missouri for some fun on the sand and in the water. Honey was in heaven, […]

Pacific Prom in Forest Park Two of my favorite seniors from the Class of 2016 got their pals together and let me shoot them looking their very best this past weekend! These young guys and gals are truly the best. They were a fun group if you can’t tell 🙂 Enjoy!

Front Street in Chuck Taylors Meet Andy, Nora, Jaxson, and Fletcher. I have been chasing Nora down for a year to photograph her family! After some bad weather bouts, we finally had the most beautiful day ever. We spent the late afternoon down on Washington’s Front Street…mostly chasing two year old Fletch, with a few photos in […]
