Maggie & Paul | Engagement

Maggie and Paul are tying the knot in just a few short days so I had to share their gorgeous engagement pictures before the big day! These two are an amazing balance for each other. A perfect blend of playfulness and tenderness that was so fun to experience during their session! Maggie knew areas downtown that Paul loved to visit and just how to make him laugh. Paul knew exactly which parts of their love story Maggie cherished. It was such a privilege to see these two interact and I can't wait to watch them say "I do"!

Maggie and Paul, thank you for the honor of photographing your love! Enjoy the wonderful and exciting journey of being newlyweds!

Katherine & Brandon | Engagement

Theirs is the kind of love that is solid, developing out of a true friendship. Katherine and Brandon met one summer while they were working as tour guides for a popular St. Louis attraction. They told me stories of how in between tours they would have lots of time to pass, so Katherine would dare Brandon to choose a different accent for each tour group. Sometimes he'd be British, sometimes Southern. It was this fun-loving friendship that helped them to see each other in such a way that turned into romance.

They are getting married in Mexico (I'm still trying to figure out how to stuff myself into a suitcase!) but I am honored to be their photographer for a reception in St. Louis to share in their love with family and friends! And from the looks of Katherine's pins on Pinterest, the reception will be nothing short of fabulous!

Katherine...rawr! Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!

In our e-mails as we narrowed down possible locations for the shoot, I told Katherine she and Brandon would still look fabulous even if they were standing next to a trash dump! As we were walking around during their session, we came across a dumpster and a toilet. It was sheer photographic fate! If this next picture doesn't tell you how hysterically amazing this couple is, nothing will!

Katherine and Brandon, thank you so much for allowing me to document your love! I can't wait until the next time I take your picture...as a married couple!!!

Marci & Drew | Engagement

Since the day I picked up my camera, I have been adamant that I did not want to shoot weddings. Growing up my dad was a photographer and I heard all kinds of crazy stories about chaotic wedding days. Then in high school I worked as an assistant for a wedding photographer and I got to experience all kinds of craziness and chaotic wedding days. One couple even decided to use interwoven locks of each other's hair as wedding bands instead of rings. HAIR. I could not make this up, people!


So when Marci e-mailed me about shooting her wedding, I was hesitant. All I kept thinking about was the chaos. And the crazy. And the hair rings. What I was forgetting was the love. The anticipation of a groom seeing his bride for the first time. The fellowship between two families. Seeing people take a chance on happily ever after.


I am overjoyed to say that on November 11, Mike and I will be the photographers for Marci and Drew's wedding! And even if there is a little bit of craziness or chaos, it won't matter because love covers all. Although if they pull out rings made of hair, I may just bolt for the door. I kid, I kid! : )


Here are some of my favorites from their engagement session...

I cannot say enough about their love for each other! In the short amount of time we spent together, it was so evident that they are truly each other's rock. They are so tender and caring, it reminded me of how wonderful it is to be married to your best friend!

Um, seriously Marci, you could not BE any more GORGEOUS!

You know it's true love when you get the "nose wrinkle smile"!

Marci and Drew, I cannot express to you both how thankful I am that you're taking a chance on me to photograph your wedding. Your love shines so brightly and it is the highest honor that you're allowing me to be a part of that!
