I’m having a blog happy kind of day over here! Truthfully, I’m leaving town at the end of the week and trying to squeeze in as much work as possible before I go. Vacations are TOUGH. They are so wonderful, but the pre (aka prep) and post (aka catch up) work is kind of brutal. […]

Okay, so buckle up… this one is going to be kinda long… you know how it is when we get awesome people and pretty stuff to photograph (even if the weather is somewhat uncooperative!)  Presenting Lily and Lars triumphant return to the blog!  #LARLY Let’s talk for a minute about this necklace… um, it’s amazing […]

Oh how I hope this wedding is a sign as to how wonderful my 2014 is going to be! Liz, Mitch and their families were so wonderful to work with. Everything ran on time, the sun graced us with it’s presence for photos, the girls were so good at making themselves laugh that all I […]

For most couples who have planned a beautiful Missouri Botanical Garden wedding, RAIN is the worst possible thing that […]

Maggie and Mike…could you two be more laid back and fun? Seriously?! All smiles, completely relaxed, stress free wedding day here folks!
