Ali and Ian’s Romantic Day! We always love shooting a wedding in a new place – it helps spark our creativity as wedding photographers!  So, it was a wonderful surprise when we found out that Ali and Ian were to be the very first wedding at McKelvey Vineyards in Leslie, Missouri.  And let me tell […]

Kim & Drew’s Charming Wedding at the Old Peace Chapel Kim and Drew chose Old Peace Chapel at The Historic Daniel Boone Home to exchange wedding vows and this venue was beyond perfect!  Fall color could be seen everywhere on the beautiful grounds surrounding the church.  Old World charm greeted guests as they entered the building […]

What a great year we have had in the wedding department!  We had some seriously, AMAZING couples.  I’m not even lying!  Janelle and I have shot 141 weddings together, and we can still appreciate the emotions, details, and love of each and every wedding day.  We treat each wedding as if it were the first […]

Emily and Matt had a beautiful wedding at The Vineyard at Riverbend Chapel, one of our favorite venues!  There were so many special and subtle moments throughout the day between these two. This ceremony was actually a vow renewal from their one-year-anniversary, as Matt serves in the military. Although this wedding was held back in […]

Jason and Lisa came to us early this year and asked us to shoot their November wedding. It was our only November date we had open for a wedding – perfect!  So glad we were able to spend an evening in Augusta, MO, shooting their engagement session at Lisa’s parent’s house!  The view is breathtaking […]

Sometimes it’s nice to go outside of our “norm” and explore new locations that spark creativity in our work!  When Ashley and Garrett booked us and mentioned that their reception was at Wine Country Gardens in Defiance, MO, we already knew that their wedding images would be gorgeous!  Even the name of the winery sounds […]

(Mother Nature, if you’re reading this, please don’t turn this into a jinx.) The morning of Kelsey and Nathan’s wedding day, I woke up to dark skies and rain – oh, and my husband reminding me that he’s been telling people that I “have never had rain on a wedding day.”  There – it’s out in […]

Amber and Bryan are one of those couples you know just belong together. The way they interact, look at each other, and laugh together made their wedding day so fun for everyone there!   Amber is the only child in her family, so I instantly knew how special the moments would be between Amber and […]

Can you tell engagement season is here?  I had three engagement sessions last week, alone!  I love engagement sessions because they don’t usually require me to play peek-a-boo to get a smile.  We did this couple’s session at Kit’s parent’s home.  It was a beautiful location and the spring morning light looks great on them, […]

Kristin and Brandon had a gorgeous fall wedding at Chandler Hill Vineyards in Defiance, Missouri! We took portraits before the ceremony while we had good light.  The entire day was overcast and, ironically, while the couple said their vows, a beautiful skyline opened, with the orange sun peeking through!  It was beautiful!  This couple is so […]

Spending the morning with the bride and bridesmaids is one of my favorite parts of a wedding day.  I still tear up when the father of the bride sees his little girl in her dress and when the bride and groom read a letter before the ceremony.  Rachel and Danny’s wedding day was so full […]
