Sam + Matt wedding {by liz}

Oh Sam and Matt…you guys will forever be emblazoned in my brain as the “best vows of all time” couple. I’ve shot HUNDREDS of weddings so that is a pretty serious title to hold. I’m so glad you two found each other and have decided to hold onto each other for the rest of your lives. I’m pretty sure that being a part of your wedding day gave many of your friends and family that extra little dose of warm and fuzzy that we all needed to get through the end of this year to beat the negativity and the cold out there in the world. Thank you so much for letting me be a part of it too! And without further adieu…I give you a beautiful day in late September to warm your bones on this chilly afternoon!

The many faces of Sam’s best friend Eilene! I promised her I’d try to get her new profile pic sometime throughout the day. I think she has plenty to choose from. ;)L Photographie St. Louis wedding photography The Jewel Box Greenbriar Hills Country Club_0007.jpg

Sam had her dress embroidered with the name of her late father so that he could be there with her.
