the h family belly & baby sessions | kansas city maternity & newborn photography

Jamie and Chris came to me because they have an incredible sister who gave them a gift certificate for my Belly & Baby package as a shower gift. I can’t think of a better gift…lol! No really, what a special gift to give; this will never be forgotten because of the irreplaceable images that were captured of a time that will never come again (at least not with baby Allie). My Belly & Baby package includes two sessions; a maternity shoot somewhere in your 7 or 8th month at a location of your choosing and then a newborn session when your bundle of love is between 5 and 9 days old either in your home or in my studio. This is a digital package so that you can have all the pictures that you want to do whatever you want with them. Baby Allie was just so beautiful and wonderful and mom and dad are proud and in love!

Until next time…

february favorite four {4 photos I love each day}

Heidi Abbott — Wed, 24 Feb 2010 17:36:56 +0000

I have so many irons on the fire right now, that I’m forgoing the “small talk” to get to right to my favorite four today!

Talk about a good looking family? Wow!

My first Pictures of Hope Foundation complimentary NICU session was with the beautiful Smith family and one of their twin boys. I met with them again to capture brother. Both boys are home now and doing great. Prayers answered!

The adorable Park maternity session was such fun and memorable.

The Rebers took advantage of one of my Mini Session Days this fall to get this and other great family pictures.

Blessings to you until next time…..

february favorite four {4 photos I love each day}

Heidi Abbott — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 17:01:16 +0000

Well, we’re almost there….the end of the month…the end of February Favorite Four. Without delay – today’s 4 favs!

I already posted one picture from Matt & Tracy’s maternity session, but I mean, are you kidding me with the absolute stunning glowingness of Tracy???? An all time favorite of mine, no question.

Brittany drove quite a ways to meet me at The Plaza for her senior portrait session. She was so wonderful to work with!

Same with Shelby – she came a bit of a way too for her senior session. We had a gorgeous day to take this gorgeous picture.

For a few years now, I have been recruited to create some posters for the Blue Valley West football team and softball team. This picture reminds me that spring is just right around the corner!

Blessings to you until next time…..

february favorite four {4 photos I love each day}

Heidi Abbott — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 14:12:17 +0000

Today, I’m just getting right to it…..ta da! Short and sweet today.

Jaclyn and her horse…wow! We had an amazing shoot out at Jaclyn’s property including streams, horses and fields. We ventured a bit down the road and found an old abandoned tractor in some beautiful flowery weeds. My kind of shoot!

I love shooting at the River Market! Pumpkins and belly shots; gotta love it! Josh and Shelby were such a stylish and fun maternity couple and soon you will see a shot from their newborn session.

Who would have guessed that we would have had such a great day for senior pictures in late November? This is one of my favorites from Courtney’s shoot.

Baptism such an important and special moment in the life of a believer and it is always a joy to me to take pictures of this event at our church.

february favorite four {4 photos I love each day}

I thought it would be super fun to post four of my favorite pictures a day for the month of February. These are in no random order and may be my personal favorites for several reasons; it could be I love everything technical about the shot, or I have a fun memory associated with when I took it, or I love the person in it. Pretty much – these pictures just make me smile :) ! So, please come back every day and check it out and feel free to leave me some comment love too!

So, I love this picture for several reasons. One Alysha was about as sweet as they come and gorgeous too. But this particular day wasn’t exactly “picture perfect”; it had rained like the days of Noah the day before, it was about 40 degrees and the wind wasn’t just blowing – it was gusting! But Alysha had a very busy schedule and it was a “now or never” appointment and she was driving over 1.5 hours to meet me. Her pictures – all of them – were spectacular and we were amazed that you couldn’t even tell it was gusty.

I picked this next picture of Amanda because 1) I LOVE COLOR and this so colorful and 2) who doesn’t love a carousel? It was a gorgeous day and a gorgeous senior. We had a fun trip to make something totally unique for her senior pictures.

This picture pretty much speaks for itself…..costumes, color, friends, fun! Jenna was one of my senior portrait clients who came back to take some fun and memorable pictures with her best friends before heading off to college. For the last part of the session, they dressed up as Tinkerbell, Snow White and Alice in Wonderland. What’s not to love about this picture?? Seriously, right?

Today’s final pick is, to me, a picture that exudes the love and emotion of a couple waiting for their first child. Matt and Tracy are beautiful people from the inside out and I felt that their maternity session was just magical; from the yummy light to their glowing expressions – it was pure magic.

Blessings to you until next time…..

josh + shelby = baby | kansas city creative maternity portraits

Heidi Abbott — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 17:36:21 +0000

Josh, Shelby and I had a wonderful time at the River Market on a gorgeous November afternoon creating these and many, many, many more creative maternity portraits. They are anxiously expecting the arrival of their daughter at the first of January…or maybe sooner! This little precious life will be the first grandchild on both sides of the family. I can say from personal experience that being the first is so special and fun! Brandon was the first in our families and you would have thought he was a prince or something. I am so thrilled for them and the blessing of a child being brought into their lives. Life is a precious, precious gift. Thank you God!

Josh and Shelby indulged me in my goofy idea. Don’t hate me… I love it!

Hello gorgeous momma!

Graffiti announcing their Pip Squeak! Hahaha

Matt and Tracy’s baby girl is due in two weeks. They are closing on their first home this week, but yet, they made time for some beautiful pictures to remember this special time. They are going to be such incredible parents and I am so happy for them. We got some great country shots for them. They both grew up on farms and playing in fields, so climbing through and laying down in the tall grass was not big deal. Of course, I doubt much is a big deal for Matt after serving our country on the front lines. What an amazing couple!

There is nothing like new life and the anticipation of it’s arrival!

kristi + colin = baby {kanas city urban maternity session}

Heidi Abbott — Wed, 20 May 2009 15:32:25 +0000

O, what a tremendous, tremendous thrill it was to do an urban maternity session yesterday with the adorable couple, Kristi and Colin! What a joy it is to be expecting your first child. 20 years ago, I was exactly as pregnant as Kristi (although undoubtedly much larger!). Their son is due on July 17th and 20 years ago, my son was born on July 15th. 20 years goes by too fast! I am beyond excited over the shots I took. Colin is on the worship team at Evangel Temple and naturally, we had to work his guitar into the shoot. I was giddy over the clothesline pictures….taken in the middle of the city with about a million dogs and owners in the park behind us.

Kristi and Colin, thank you! Thank you for being so adorable, so in love, so excited and sooo photogenic. I am so glad that Amanda blessed you with the gift of custom photography to document this very special moment in your lives. I am praying God’s greatest blessings over this baby and your family.
