Is it any surprise that fall is our favorite time of year?
And then there's Rachel – and that smile. Gorgeous.

sweet dreams, luchador | newborn images by benandbeccalee

If there was one word we'd use to describe this sweet little guy (with that beautiful head of hair!), there's no question what it would be. Luchador. Such a funny word for such an adorable baby. Luchador. It means fighter. Luchador. It's what and who he's been long before he was born. Luchador. It's exactly what he is now and what he will be – what he'll have to be – to guard himself from his three, adoring big sisters.

Luchador. Fighter. Can't you tell?

rebecca | fort zumwalt west, class of 2015

It's been an unseasonably cool summer in the St. Louis area, which has allowed us to start our outdoor senior portrait sessions much earlier than usual. The temps and sun were absolutely perfect for Rebecca's senior shoot in Old St. Charles under the big pavilion on the riverfront.

To book a 90-min. senior session like Rebecca's, don't wait – email us soon: photos@benandbeccalee.com.

meet miss maddie | faust park, spring 2014

This beautiful girl is a total gem – a natural star in front of the camera ... her hair, her smile, her poise. Perfection! We're just so happy and lucky to be a part of her journey as this Missouri Hi-Point title winner competes at the next level toward nationals. Best wishes, little friend!
