I spent some time going through my archives for rustic and vintage style outdoor farm photos… and here’s what I found. Jersey and Belted Galloway cows, all kinds of goats, sheep, chickens and horses. I even found an alpaca photo… well, part of one. I’m not sure I’d go so far as to call these…

Freelance Photographer – Columbia, MO – Wedding reception dance floor?

January 14, 2014

I’ve seen some crazy things as a wedding photographer in Columbia, MO, but the dance floor during a holiday party for a recent freelance photography assignment were INSANE. Here’s proof – not only is a random shoe left in the middle of wild lights, but this shoe is broken from too much dancing! I’d share more, but…

So, I guess 2012 was the year of the drought, and this year is the monsoon season! It’s rained more since we arrived in Concord for weddings than I’ve ever seen before. At least I have this lovely rainbow umbrella to brighten the day. ;)

Nature Photography – Little Brown Bat Photography in Columbia, MO

June 11, 2013

So… the craziest thing happened to me today. I was changing Jack’s diaper, and realized that the window was open (we had the air on, it was 95 today!). I kept one hand on him, reached over and closed the window, and then went to close the curtain. When the curtain slid across the rod,…

It’s impossible for me to witness the birth of a baby without crying. Impossible. So through blurred vision, thank you for your beautiful story. It’s 42 years since the birth of our first child and now I look back with wonder on the arrival of our 3 children and seven grandchildren. Lucky you – it’s all ahead of you. Congratulations to you both on the arrival of your beautiful boy.
Shane Epping

Anjali

Emily Zoladz

A beautiful birth story, and so well documented (like I expected anything less). I loved the detail of you being on all fours in the elevator and the nurse looking at you and springing into action as the doors opened. My story was so similar, it made me smile to read :)
Lane Fowler

Katie, this is such a beautiful story documented! You and Max are going to be awesome parents. I’m so happy for you!!!!!!

Wow! great descriptions and photos of the whole adventure. I almost feel like we were there. And–it sounds like you were having a great time. Isn’t it amazing to meet a person you are going to know and love for the rest of your life, squeezing out between your legs? XXX to all of you. Hili

Katie and Max, I love how much hair he has! Such a nice story Katie, had me laughing (Hoover Dam) and nearly in tears for you guys (and I’m a man! Men don’t cry). As much as I miss you guys being here in New Hampshire, seeing photos of your parents must be reassurance on your decision to move closer to family. Much love to you guys and hopefully I’ll be able to meet that little dude someday soon.

Katie & Max, my wife Karla and I are so happy for you! What a touching (and funny!) story, plus we’re so happy that you are closer to family in Columbia. We sincerely look forward to seeing you guys sometime soon (never far from St. Louis) and meeting your little boy.
