Elizabeth & Mike Married!!! {St. Louis Wedding Photographer}
On July 27th, I woke up somewhere close to 5am to get ready to drive to St. Louis to photograph Liz & Mike’s wedding with Jessica who was my second photographer for the big day. We had coffee in hand and ready for a little road trip 
July weddings are sometimes on the hottest days of the year, but not this July. The temperature cooled down a bit and had a crispness about it to make you excited for the fall. It truly was an invigorating day to have a wedding All of the girls were all excited and bubbly. The guys were equally fired up and ready for a great day! While I was photographing the girls getting ready, Jessica was photographing the guys getting ready at the Westin. Mike didn’t see Elizabeth until she was walking down the aisle at the beautiful St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church, it was a lovely moment to witness. The ceremony was beautiful and kicked off an afternoon and evening of joy and celebration! The reception was amazing and soooooo much fun! The details and decor were to die for!!!! I will start with Liz’s fabulous dress and shoes!
I loved the chalkboard paint on the glasses! Keep your eye out for more chalkboard fun throughout the day!
Here is a fun shot Jessica took of me getting the shot on the left
Mike and his dad having a moment in the hall
Wow, just wow. Liz was just stunning.
I think my favorite part about the Westin was that it was right next to the Busch Stadium! How cool is that for a Cardinals fan!!!
Liz’s nieces and nephews were super cute 
And before Mike saw his bride on their wedding day, Liz’s dad came to see his baby girl ready to walk down the aisle 
Married!!!!!!
Beautiful church, beautiful light and beautiful moment 
After the ceremony everyone got on a limo bus and went to Forest Park for some photo fun!!!!
I LOVE the next two images and it is a great example of how awesome it is to have a 2nd photographer on your wedding day! While I was in the position for the first shot, Jessica’s angle was awesome with the water as the background!!!
ok, kind of crazy about all of these images as well Seriously…are they not totally gorgeous?!!?!?!?!?
There was a lot of fun and singing going down The first image cracks me up 
Can you believe these beautiful clouds? What an awesome day! My first wedding photos with the St. Louis Arch! I loved it!
Handsome groom!
The reception was at Moulin and was incredible!
The bride and groom entrance was pretty cool. Mike slid right in to his entrance. I was surprised by the fun entrance and I think Mike may have been surprised by a splinter or two 😉 Totally worth it for it’s awesomeness though 😉
Now THIS is what a dance floor is suppose to look like Super fun!
Congratulations Liz & Mike! Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness!!!!!
Lauren & Kenny Married!!!! {Kansas City Wedding Photographer}
Yay!!!! Lauren & Kenny were married in beautiful Parkville where they met at Park College! The Graham Tyler Memorial Chapel is the beautiful little church on the campus of Park College, so what a perfect place for their ceremony!!!! It was such an exciting day with Lauren and her girls all smiley and bubbly! I had the great opportunity to photograph Lauren & Kenny’s engagement session in Fort Worth where they live and had such a fun time getting to know them, I was super excited to photograph their wedding! And it was just as great as I thought it would be! Let me tell the story with the photos!!!!
I want to start with a few shots from the engagement session because it was just soooooo awesome and I haven’t had enough time to blog very many engagement sessions We shot a lot in the Fort Worth Stockyards which was really really cool
I loved this cactus photo so much even though I got stuck in the booty while shooting it!!!!!!
When I first walked in to the room where Lauren was getting ready my first view was her awesome hair style!
Lauren has AMAZING eyes!!!!
I loved that Lauren had her fancy bling shoes and her cowboy boots! A little Texas love 
This series will show a bit of the wedding theme : BLING!!! Lauren is a blingy kind of gal!!!! Even her nails were blingy! Is blingy a real word? 
Beautiful invitations with a little…..bling

Meghan was a bit weepy on Lauren’s wedding day 
After Lauren & Kenny first saw each other, I think they were both more relaxed!!!!
