baby blythe | kansas city newborn photographer

by heathermorrow· April 16, 2015· in Babies and Kids, Families· 0 comments tags: kansas city baby photographer, kansas city baby photos, kansas city newborn photography, newborn portraits
i’ve known this beautiful mama for about three years. when we met she owned an amazing boutique at town center plaza called 3 house and we worked together on a couple of fashion shoots, including one for her life magazine. during that shoot, cassi was strictly behind the scenes so you can imagine my excitement when i heard that she was expecting and i would finally have her in front of my camera. she and her loving husband welcomed a darling baby girl on new year’s eve and i was delighted to have them at the studio for newborn photos. baby blythe was pretty alert for the first part of our shoot and even surprised us by holding up her head in this photo with daddy. i’m such a sucker for babies and their daddy’s. and this daddy is such a sucker for his baby. cassi has impeccable style and fell in love with this eco-friendly baby blanket from happy habitat by karrie kaneda so we decided to work it in on a few shots. and once we got this little lady to sleep she was soooo good to me. we were able to get quite a variety of poses to show […]

the mccarthy family – kansas city family portraits

by heathermorrow· January 28, 2015· in Babies and Kids, Families· 0 comments tags: fall family photos, kansas city family photographer, kansas city family portraits
i’m losing track of how many times i’ve worked with the mccarthy family now. having them in front of my camera is always a treat. we typically go for an urban setting for their family portraits but we decided to try out the beautiful fall colors this year and i love what we captured. not only are the mccarthys a ridiculously beautiful family, they are one of the most loving families i know. we used this next series on their christmas card and it just makes me smile. and seriously. farrah. she slays me. like a sweet little fairy in the meadow. she’s perfect. ryan and erika, you are simply amazing and so are your children. and i’m honored that you’ve chosen me to capture all these little stages in their lives. with lots of love, H

noah – a kansas city senior portrait session

by heathermorrow· December 20, 2014· in Families, Seniors, What to Wear for Senior Portraits· 0 comments tags: senior portraits, what to wear for senior portraits
i don’t always photograph senior boys but when i do they’re ridiculously photogenic. like noah. boys, THIS is how you dress for senior portraits. i always suggest wearing something casual, something on trend and most definitely something timeless. you don’t want to look back on your senior portraits and say, “what was i thinking?’ with noah’s great style i know that won’t be happening to him. or his little brother myles. talk about a future heartbreaker!  did you know that for senior portrait sessions we offer a complimentary mini family or sibling session on the same day? while you’re camera ready why not have your siblings or even the whole family hop in for a few shots. this can be done at the beginning or the end of your session which makes it super quick and painless. noah, thanks for trusting me to create unique senior portraits that tell your story. you’re a bright young man with a wonderful personality (and killer style) and i can’t wait to see what the future hold for you. it’s been an incredible year for us at hocus focus. we’ve got some really exciting things happening in the year ahead and so many more […]

it’s mini session time! | kansas city family photographer

by heathermorrow· August 27, 2014· in Babies and Kids, Families, Mini Sessions, My Peeps, What to Wear for Family Portraits· 0 comments tags: family portraits, kansas city family photos, mini sessions
fall is just around the corner and i absolutely love this time of year. the buzz of all that back to school energy…seeing everyone’s first day of school pictures on facebook and while it’s hard to imagine with the recent heat wave we’ve had, i always look forward to that feeling of the chill in the air that comes with fall. i’m already dreaming of sweaters and boots and scarves. and pumpkin. oh, the pumpkin. then that 100 degree heat index pulls me back to reality. as a photographer fall is my busiest time of year. family portraits are a staple of my fall schedule but fall is also my busiest season as a mom. rilee is in her second season of competitive softball and lucee is a cheerleader. with sports taking over our weekends my weekend availability is very limited this year because as a mom i don’t want to miss out on these moments with my kids that will pass all too quickly. that being said, we have carved out a few weekends and even a weekday for some family mini sessions. our first date is this coming monday, which is labor day so the kids are all […]

by heathermorrow· August 18, 2014· in Babies and Kids, Families, Mini Sessions, What to Wear for Family Portraits· 0 comments tags: chasing davies, kansas city family portraits, mini sessions, what to wear for family portraits
it’s been almost two years since my last shoot with kansas city fashion blogger meg davey of chasing davies. i love having her in front of my camera because she has such a great, carefree style. her ability to mix colors and patterns is matched by none. during our fall 2012 family portrait session meg and her husband were a family of three joined by their sweet son liam. this year we did a summer mini session with their newest addition, daughter nora, who we all know is destined to by a fashion force just like her lovely mama. i love they way meg pulled together wardrobe for this shoot. she chose a few fun pops of color, Nike Pas Cher France,added in some texture and pattern and filled the gaps with great neutrals. this lady knows just what to wear for family portraits. check out our favorites from this darling mini session! be sure to head over to meg’s blog for loads of fashion inspiration and the latest on some really fun fashion events happening around town. her blog is a favorite of mine and i just love that she’s based right here in kc! and if you haven’t […]

baby farrah | kansas city newborn photographer

by heathermorrow· July 23, 2014· in Babies and Kids, Families, Studio· 0 comments
last time i photographed the mccarthy family they were a party of four. mom, dad and two dapper little dudes. fast forward several months and they’re now a party of five with a beautiful little lady for those proud big brothers to look after. i couldn’t resist grabbing a few shots of the boys while farrah was getting settled in. and can you believe we nailed the ultimate mission impossible photo of a newborn with siblings without having to composite multiple images? (thanks to janie and jennifer for assisting on this one.) with dad’s red hair, mom’s dark hair and the boys being blond everyone wasn’t sure what to expect with farrah. mom really wanted a red head and i think her wish may be granted. in the right light you can see a bit of a red tint in farrah’s hair. ryan is such a loving dad – a true family man. and erika is an amazing mama. she gets so much joy from her family. her face just lights up when she talks about them. i’ve loved watching the boys grow up over the past couple of years and i can’t wait to do the same with sweet […]

the mccarthy family portraits – kansas city family photographer

by heathermorrow· January 30, 2014· in Babies and Kids, Families, What to Wear for Family Portraits· 0 comments tags: family portraits, kansas city family photographer, what to wear for family portraits
there are no words to describe how much i adore the mccarthy family. they’ve been in front of my camera before and they’re a dream to photograph. their last family portrait session took place in the studio so we were excited to head outdoors for an urban session this time. mom and dad are gorgeous as are the boys. and they’re the perfect example of what to wear for family portraits. the whole family just has style. for days. but it was the boys personalities that really shined this during this shoot. they were hamming it up for the camera and i couldn’t stop clicking! every time i thought we were done the boys would go and do something else that was too cute to not document! see for yourselves in the bajillion images i’m about to post. love these profile shots! can’t get enough of their brotherly love. i swear this wasn’t planned. mayson just really, really loves his brother. no wonder their kids are so gorgeous. look at these two! what little boy doesn’t love to run and jump into his daddy’s arms? and just when i think this family couldn’t possibly be any happier or any more […]
