Sandy + JoJo // Windows on Washington, St. Louis Wedding Photography

This was such a sweet & special wedding for me to be a part of!  
Sandy & Jojo got engaged a few years ago & had me do some engagement photos for them, but also told me that they were going to wait about 3 years to get married.  I have to admit, I had so much fun doing their engagement session that I was kinda bummed that their wedding would be so far away...but alas, they decided they could't wait any longer (which of course, made me squeal a little with excitement when she told me they were getting married in November!).  Sandy wanted everything to be classic & beautiful with lots of pearls, diamonds, & lace - kind of a modern take on a classic Audrey Hepburn...she succeeded!  There were so many beautiful details throughout their day that fit her description perfectly!

These two are so adorable & so in love with each other.   You could really tell how wonderfully supported they were by all of the family & friends that surrounded them on this special day too.  What a wonderful treasure of strong, deep, sweet love God has blessed them with!

They created their own awesome little photo booth with some balloons, face props, & a tablet with the camera set to a timer...such a fun & easy way to capture all of your guests having fun being goofy!

Danielle + Chris // Meramec Springs, MO // Engagement Photography

I am having so much fun re-visiting all of the lovely engagement sessions I got to do last fall!  So many sweet & fun couples...& so many gorgeous views too!  

Danielle & Chris wanted to visit Meramec Springs for their fall session & I'd say we timed it just right!  I had never been there before, so I was totally oooing & aahhhing the whole time because it was just so perfect, peaceful, & breathtaking!  I'm so glad they forced me to get out there & explore yet another new & wonderful place in Missouri...I wish it was closer to home, I'd be over there all the time!
  I hope you enjoy our sweet little adventure through the park!

I am so excited about your wedding this summer guys - I know it is going to be packed with beautiful details...accompanied by lots of love & laughter too of course!

Waiting on Sam // St. Louis Maternity Photography

Happy Monday folks!

I am so grateful to have such fun, easy-going, & kind-hearted clients!  I had the privilege of capturing Dan & Ashlynne's gorgeous rustic wedding a few years ago & of course, was thrilled when they contacted me to document this next huge season in their life - welcoming Sam into their family!   Can't wait to meet him soon!

Caty + Randy // Lafayette Park // St. Louis Engagement Photography

Are you ready for another beautiful, fall engagement session?  I'm sorry I didn't post all of these last fall, but I was so crazy busy!  haha  But, I kinda love having so many sweet sessions to share with you in these drab winter months.  :)  I had the privilege of capturing Caty's sister's wedding in 2013 & now I get to celebrate & capture Caty & Randy's wedding this spring AND her little sister's wedding this coming fall!  I am so excited to have the opportunity to capture so many special moments for all of them - it really is such an honor!

I can't wait for your beautiful spring wedding guys - it will be here before we know it!

Cecily & Adella's 7 Month Sweetness // St. Charles Child Photography

Look who's back...Cecily & Adella!!  Can you believe how big they've gotten?  I have so much fun getting to capture so many sweet littles growing up - my cheeks were hurting from all the fun we were having during their session.  haha  If you want to compare this cuteness to how tiny they were when we met go see their newborn session here - Welcome Cecily & Adella.
Instead of 6 month photos we opted to wait until the girls were sitting a little better, & since they were actually 1 month old for their newborn session we figured it would be alright to wait a little bit...& it was perfect timing.  I hope you enjoy these as much as I do!  

Seriously...aren't they so beautiful??!!

Alden's First Birthday Fun // St. Charles Child Photography

I'm so excited to share this adorable First Birthday Session with y'all!  

Do you remember Alden's Newborn photos from last year? If not, then you should go take a peek now Welcome Alden - it so fun to see how much they grow & change in such a short period of time!  This little man has brought so much joy to his mom & dad...& pretty much everyone he comes in contact with.  He's one of those little boys that smiles ear to ear when you just say hi to him!  It's making me smile as I type just thinking about the twinkle in his eyes when he smiles at me.  What a treasure!

I love how simple yet fun all of Linda's ideas were for his session...I hope you enjoy them!

We even got to sneak out when Alden was sleeping for a few of just Bob & Linda - gosh I'm so thankful for them in my life.

We love you Alden!  Thanks for always bringing so much joy & sweetness with you wherever you go...can't wait to see the awesome little man you grow into!

Nitu + Joe // Creve Coeur Lake Engagement Photography

I'm glad I still have so many sweet, fun, & colorful sessions to share with y'all during these quiet winter months!  
How about another fun Engagement Session from the fall?!  These two are so stinking adorable!  You can tell how in love with each other they are by spending just a few minutes with them.  Nitu dabbles in photography, so she understands how important that part of their wedding day is & she was also very aware of her body language during our time together - which helped make their session even more relaxed & darling!  I hope you enjoy these!

Aren't they so sweet??!!

I'm looking forward to your Klondike Park ceremony this September guys!!

Welcome Milo // St. Louis Newborn Photography

Happy Friday y'all!
I was about to share another one of my sweet fall engagement sessions, but realized that I needed a little something different, since it's just been weddings & engagements for the past few months.  So, I hope you enjoy this change of pace!  
Remember Kristi & Trevor's fun Maternity Session from the summer?  Well, I had to post a sweet little follow up from a session we did when Milo was about 4 weeks old - what a cutie!  Can't believe he's already 5 months old now! You can already tell he's got such a sweet, spunky, & loving spirit.  Can't wait to watch him grow!
Enjoy!
