People tell me that they choose us to be their wedding photographer because they made a real connection with our images. Out photographs tells a story. There is real emotion in the pictures. To bring that feeling to our images, we must first make a connection with you, our clients. Spending time getting to know you and hearing your story fuels us to bring that story to life. Korey and Aany were so authentic in every piece of their wedding day, that capturing their adventure, was one of the easiest connections I’ve ever made. It was impossible not to be pulled in by the peace and unity of their celebration. Of course, the fully loaded taco bar by Seed Sprout Spoon was one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever eaten. Cheers.

Set in the impeccable Laumeire Sculpture Park,  Nina and Orie’s elegant wedding was gilded in blue skies for miles and contagious laughter.  Classic details of purple orchards and succulent party favors brought a vibrate, life giving atmosphere and transitioned the outside ceremony to the inside reception full of light and music.  From fist look to first dance Orie and Nina floated through with warmth and grace.  It is an honor and delight to share this St. Louis wedding story today.

Shooting Brett and Melissa’s wedding was truly an honor.  They are some of the most caring and generous people I have ever met.  Their whole wedding day was carefully crafted with themes of giving and service.  Having their ceremony in the natural decor of the Missouri Botanical Gardens, renting bikes so their wedding guest ride to Moulin Events for the reception, (I got to hang out the sunroof and take photos of them)  and giving out flower bulbs as party gifts were just a few of the thoughtful details that made their day so incredible. Their love for each other, selfless.  Their smiles, infectious.  And together, I think they have a real shot at taking over the world!
