Angela & Brian Married! {Lees Summit Wedding Photographer}
For love & baseball!!! Angela & Brian were married right in the heart of our Royals being in the world series! It was game 4 and the Royals were leading the series 2-1, the whole city was painted blue with excitement. While I know Angela & Brian were so excited about the Royals in the world series, that was probably not in their mind when setting their wedding date With all of that being said, I know plenty of brides who might have been very distraught with what to do about that during their reception. But Angela & Brian embraced it, and went ahead and put the game on after dinner during their reception. Lots of guests enjoyed watching the game in the bar area while others got their groove on the dance floor and some tried to combine those two acts
It is a really neat story of how Angela & Brian met. Angela’s daughter’s best friend is Brian’s niece. If I am remembering the story correctly, Brian was at his sisters sometime when Angela was coming or going with her daughter, Katie and of course asked his sister about her immediately Angela and Katie seem like best friends and Brian and Katie have so much fun together. I am just so happy for them to all become a family
Congratulations Brian, Angela & Katie!
I started the day out taking a few photos at the salon just down the street from the Stanley in Lees Summit where the wedding and ceremony was going to be.
All the shops outside were sporting their Royals cheer!
Then we headed over to the Stanley for Angela to put her dress on. The dressing room there is cute as heck! And of course the flowers were beautiful! Amy from Victorian Gardens did an amazing job!
Amy is how I actually met Angela! I was picking up a corsage for my son’s prom while Angela was meeting with her! And her date was the only one I did not have booked for October! Lucky for me
The moment when they both see each other on their wedding day is such an awesome moment to witness. They were so happy
I LOVE this photo
Such a beautiful lady and handsome groom!
It was unseasonably warm for the end of October which was nice to be outside for a few photos!
This is perfectly them. Brian had me laughing all day!
LOL!!!
So lovely!
I love that Brian’s ring has baseball stitching engraved on it, perfect for a world series wedding! Angela is a writer and I have read her poem like a dozen times
Brian had everyone laughing as he came down the aisle with a bit of bounce
It was a beautiful ceremony! I am solo crazy about the combinations of the brick, wood and ceiling here!!!!
Of course we had to bust out the world series towels I brought!!!!
mmmmmmm….gelato!!!!!
And this is how you multi task! Dancing and watching the series at the same time
We were still ahead here
I love photos with the streetlights. It feels so romantic to me, like walking home from a date
Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!
Catherine & Brent Married!!! {Kansas City Wedding Photographer}
What a wonderful day. Catherine & Brent’s wedding day was just perfect. I knew that it would be because even if something went different than what they had planned it would still be perfect to them. They were there to marry their soul mates and nothing would stop that. It is always so nice to get to know my couples and see what they are all about and I had the pleasure of photographing Catherine & Brent’s engagement photos in Dallas, TX where they live and really get to know them. And they are so wonderful. They are a young athletic couple with tremendous faith. It was really special seeing how important their church is to them and to their marriage. They even flew in their minister from TX. After getting to know Catherine a bit, I feel like I can see my own daughter growing into the kind of lady Catherine is. She is strong, kind, independent, self assured, funny and so beautiful on the outside as well as her heart. And like Catherine’s parents, I would be very happy if my daughter someday finds a man like Brent. I wish you a lifetime of football tackles and laughter Catherine’s dress was so beautiful. I especially loved the lace shoulders
Catherine getting her make up done by the talented Mandy McKenna-who’s wedding I will be photographing in the spring!!!!!!
Prepare for flower girl overload here. Couldn’t help it, she is just the cutest!
She wanted to help bring the dress to Catherine
There are certain looks Catherine has that remind me of Olivia Wilde, like this one
It was really awesome to see how close Catherine and her dad are.
The handsome groom prepping for the day!
Brent was all smiles seeing his bride to be for the first time walking down the aisle
Such a beautiful ceremony
LOVE some sun flare!!!!
One of my favorites here!
This crew was FUN for sure!
It is always fun to do a group of funny photo poses and this one is even more awesome with the photo bombers
Another fave!!!!
Maybe my top favorite. It is like you can really feel how much they love each other
CHECK OUT THE CAKE! So awesome! If you can’t tell, Brent is a football player
And gosh, what a lovely evening for the cocktail hour outside at Holbrook!
Now this series is so them. I can’t quite remember what I was trying to get them to do but we definitely misunderstood each other and it turned out so funny and perfect
And seriously, Catherine could have ran a marathon in her dress!
The golden hour…….awe……..how I love this time!
I really love seeing engagement photos I have taken in print and was so excited to see this one as it was one of my favorites!
Catherine’s dance with her father had a fun twist! They broke out in several fun dances!
Super fun dancing! I really loved seeing their minister breaking it down!

Congratulations love birds!!!! Thank you so much for trusting me with your big day!!!!!!
