Married! Rebecca & Bart - part 1

Rebecca and Bart were married mid-May (yes, I'm really late on posting this). They're a really sweet, fun couple. Cheryl was my second-shooter for the day. The weather was yuck and having her there to back me up was really helpful.

























I was really proud of Rebecca. She volunteered to be a part of the photo below, despite the freezing cold temperatures, light rain, and the fact she was wearing heels and a dress.



Aww Cheryl.. love your style..











Next up - fun fun reception photos!

Break for nature

Would like to take a break from people for a moment and share some recent nature-y photos, starting with my favorite flower, the Bleeding Heart.





I want these in my backyard..







I see two tadpoles kissing.. <3

James, Gretchen, Jorie, & Keely

I photographed Gretchen & James' wedding a couple years back. At the time, they had 1 adorable little girl. Now they have 2 adorable little girls who I had the honor of photographing.









Jorie is adjusting well to the role of big sister, which I'm sure was easy because she's such a sweet girl.









No photo session with Jorie is complete without her showing off some awesome dance moves..









Gretchen picked out the best matching outfits for her girls..



Baby Keely needed a nap after so much picture taking..



Thanks again guys for letting me into your lives! P.S. I hope I'm spelling Keely's name right!

Brittney & Dan are married - Part 2

After taking pictures at Busch Stadium and Laclede's Landing, we had VERY limited time at Tower Grove Park. So we shot a few and then rushed off to the reception!







I can't remember why, but the DJ started off the reception with everyone dancing to the YMCA. Brittney and Dan just smiled at each other the whole time.









Lots of fun and dancing the rest of the night!



Congrats guys!

Married! Brittney & Dan - Part 1

This post is so long overdue that I'm breaking it up into 2 parts. I just have so many favorites, it would be silly to make it into a huge post.

Brittney & Dan got married on a beautiful day at the end of April. So in love, so excited for this day to have finally arrived. They are both very sweet people and made me feel very comfortable all day. Also - I barely had to direct them for photo poses. They are so affectionate, they stayed close to each other all day and made my job very easy. I get lucky when it comes to brides & grooms! They are always great.











In the limo, just so sweet..



First stop, some pictures around Busch Stadium..







The flying veil!



Next shot - inspired by the movie poster for Bridesmaids.. although THESE bridesmaids look much happier than the ones in the movie -





Guys being girly..





Next stop - Laclede's Landing..





I was so worried it was going to rain. I was just waiting for it to start pouring. And then all the sudden, the sun started to shine, it was beautiful on this one street in particular..







Next stop - Tower Grove Park & reception!
