Morgan + Nick | Love Story A truly spectacular day spent at the School House Bed & Breakfast, the Bur Oak and Les Bourgeois Blufftop and Bistro in Rocheport, MO. Morgan and Nick are a truly exceptional couple who's love has lasted the test of time. Cheers you two!

Lauren + James | Love Story Lauren and James planned the most beautiful, meaningful wedding day. As artists they carefully made stunning color and texture choices and even gave each of their guests a gorgeous piece of pottery that they created together. Sadie and I loved each second we spent with them. Aren't they amazing?!

Welcome to the world | Charlotte B I'm so excited to share these images from last week's newborn session. The Bartley's welcomed little miss Charlotte just in time to celebrate Christmas as a family of five. Welcome sweet girl. You are already so loved. **Are you welcoming a baby in Jan, Feb or March? I have a few available spots left for each of these three months. The Art & Soul studio is located in downtown Columbia and features beautiful windows overlooking Broadway. It's the secret to all this lovely light steaming into these portraits.

Thornton Family | Fall 2020 It's such a joy to watch (and document) my Art & Soul families that welcomed babies this year. What a blessing to have during such a tricky year. I love how the Thornton's are enjoying their little guy so much. What a ray of hope a new life brings!!

Do you want to know a secret? You don't have to stop scheduling family sessions when your kiddos aren't little anymore. Shocking, I know... Tanya has done a lovely job at making time for sessions as her kids turned into teenagers and even now that she has a college student. Don't miss out of these years!... As you can tell, the Alberty's are such a fun family. They love to laugh together and that's such sweet medicine, isn't it?

Merry Minis 2020 These sweethearts had me smiling from ear to ear at their session on Saturday. I sure loved meeting this lovely family. Their hearts and home sure are filled with love. And I just so happen to be a sucker for Christmas plaid.

Fessler Family | Merry Minis 2020 WOW!! This last weekend we had SO many amazing families join us for our annual Merry Minis at the Art & Soul studio. I love meeting new families and welcoming back returning families. It's the most wonderful time of the year.

Winter 2020 | Urban Family Do you get any cuter than these three little sweeties?! I sure love the Urban family and I'm so grateful to have the privilege of documenting their family as it has grown from a family of 3 to 4 to 5. They are truly an Art & Soul family! **Have you fallen behind on documenting the growth of your family? ... PRO TIP: Once babies grow past their first year, I recommend deciding on a season of the year to schedule your yearly family session. A lot of customers choose to schedule sessions close to birthdays to capture milestones.

Meredith P | 3 years old This little peanut met me at Shelter Gardens back in October for her 3 year session. Meredith is such a bright and sunshiny little girl who is just a joy. Full of life and So. Much. Fun. *If you haven't already you should Like Art & Soul Photography Inc. for more sweet sessions like this one.

Shaffer Merkle Family | Winter 2020 What does 2020 call for? Front Porch Christmas portraits. YESS!! And double YES when it's for some of our dearest friends. August and Grant have been best buds since MDO days. I sure love it that we get to do life together.

Seniors 2020 | Emily C Emily is such a beauty (on the inside and out). We had such a amazing session and I'm so excited for her as she embarks on her senior year. She brought it!

Seniors 2021 | Samantha H Samantha is an actress and had a clear vision of what she wanted for her senior session. I loved working with her to create these out of the box senior portraits. Isn't she lovely? **Contact me today to schedule your custom senior session.

Havens Family | Fall 2020 My dear friends the Havens met me at Capen Park for these colorful fall family portraits. I'm so grateful for this amazing family who loves well and has a ton of fun together.
