markus & morgan: portraits in the park!

Earlier this month I went to Saint Louis for about 10 days to attend one wedding and shoot another. While there, I scheduled portrait sessions almost every day! It was so much fun. Markus and Morgan kicked off the week at the Art Museum in Forest Park.

Of course no session would be complete without a few family portraits with mom on art hill.

A kiss for mom :)

In this next one, mom asked Morgan to give her a kiss.  Morgan leaned in with puckered lips and just as she got close enough, stuck out her tongue and licked mom upside the face.  I love this moment after.

Time to play in the grass!

And on to the next play spot! :)

Morgan is such a ham and for being only four years old, really understood the camera.  She posed for shots and knew exactly what I was looking for.  Gotta love that!

As you can see, I had such a blast with these two!  After their photo session, they were having a picnic in the park.  I was saying goodbye to mom when Marcus told me, “You can stay for the picnic if you want!  You don’t have to go.”  So sweet.
