Growing up, my mom always made Valentine's Day a fun kids' holiday. &nbsp;We would buy candy and make cupcakes. &nbsp;I remember always going to the store to pick out a new Valentine's stuffed kitten or bear. &nbsp;So this year, Arie Alex got a pretty pink dress embellished with roses from her Grandma Bonnie, and that inspired a whole Valentine's party. &nbsp;Cupcakes, crafts, and lots of candy!<div><br /></div><div><br /></div>]]></description>

We took a rainy Saturday and turned into a cozy day in. Brandon and Amber chose some of St. Louis' more retro locations for us to use as the back drop for their engagement photos. Thanks to the Courtesy Diner and Foam Coffee and Beer for being our set for the day.<div><br /></div>]]></description>

            <title>Why I shoot weddings (Tim)</title>
            <description><![CDATA[<br /><p style="margin: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><font size="3">Well first, the photographs from my wedding </font></span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><font size="3">are sub-</font></span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><font size="3">par and that is a real loss.&nbsp; I</font></span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><font size="3">
know exactly what if feels like to get bad wedding photos.&nbsp; I make
sure that none of our clients are in that situation.&nbsp; I shoot weddings
because I love being married.&nbsp; I love my wife and I like to
be around people that love each other.&nbsp; There are few moments in life
like the moment a couple has when they walk out the back of a church as
a married couple.&nbsp; They just stood up in front of their family and
friends and said "I pick you".&nbsp; It's a very public display.&nbsp; But then
for those brief seconds at the back of the church</font></span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><font size="3">, after the walk down the isle,</font></span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><font size="3"> it</font></span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><font size="3">'</font></span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><font size="3">s just the two of them.&nbsp; That's </font></span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><font size="3">the moment that I</font></span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><font size="3"> cherish.</font></span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><font size="3">&nbsp;
It's intensely intimate and blindingly beautiful.&nbsp; As a photographer
I'm honored and humbled when someone chooses us to capture that
moment.&nbsp; </font><br /></span></p><p style="margin: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><br /></span></p><p style="margin: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"><br /></span></p><span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="display: inline;"><img alt="Matt and Megan Wedding 9-5-09 466.jpg" src="http://beautifulmessphoto.com/blog/Matt%20and%20Megan%20Wedding%209-5-09%20466.jpg" class="mt-image-center" style="margin: 0pt auto 20px; text-align: center; display: block;" height="645" width="970" /></span><p style="margin: 0pt;"><br /><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman';"></span></p> ]]></description>
