Watching the fall mini session bookings come in this week has been such a joy. So many are families I've photographed for years.

Documenting your families over the years is such an honor. If you've already booked, thank you! I look forward to seeing you in the coming months!

If you haven't booked yet, fall minis are open: September through November at Des Peres Park, Oak Knoll, Faust Park, and Forest Park. 🍂 https://book.usesession.com/s/xshgmq_C_s

I've had the joy of photographing this family for the past few years, watching them grow through my lens. So when they invited me back to capture their newest little one's very first photos, it brought me such joy.

To be trusted with a family's story over time and to witness their tender moments with a new baby is one of the greatest gifts of being a photographer.

This extra special little one’s Mom, together with the amazing team at Ranken Jordan Pediatric Bridge Hospital and Little Wishes made sure this 6 month milestone was celebrated in style and I was so honored to capture it via On Angels' Wings

Being behind the lens for moments like this is a priveledge I don’t take lightly.

One of our incredible patients recently celebrated six months of life and half a year of strength. From the very beginning, she has shown her determination and continues to grow stronger each day!🥳🎁🎈

While at our hospital, her mom chooses to appreciate every moment because being hospitalized doesn't mean an end to creating beautiful memories. In celebration of this milestone, mom and the Ranken Jordan staff organized a 6‑month photo shoot to capture the moment together. 📸

This celebration was made possible with the help of an amazing community:
✨ Little Wishes, for providing the cake, décor, and outfits to make the day extra special.
📸 Carly Scaduto Photography with On Angels Wings, for her time and talent to capture these beautiful memories.

In Mom's words, “No matter what a child is diagnosed with, they still deserve to have a great life, and that’s what I plan to give her!"

Surrounded by love, hope, and boundless support, every child deserves to be celebrated exactly as they are!

🍋 Today’s unseasonably warm weather reminds me of this stunning Amalfi Coast-inspired bridal shower I photographed, and I’m still thinking about how beautiful it all was. From lemon specialty cocktails to gorgeous Italian-themed decor, handmade aprons for every guest, and a photo display tracing the bride's journey from childhood to now, no detail was overlooked.

This celebration was lovingly created by a dear family friend, and you could feel the care and intention behind every single touch.
