Jen + Mike Wedding | NEO | St. Louis Wedding Photography

Yay! We are officially back in full swing with wedding season! This year we kicked off the year with the gorgeous/celebrity-look-alike (Ashley Judd + Dermot Mulroney)/dynamic duo Jen + Mike!

I think these two can easily say they have been dating forever – an endearing 7 year friendship + 6 year courtship.:)Jen is a trained ballet teacher, and her college sorority taught his fraternity how to dance. Who knew that years later they would be sharing another first dance at their wedding! Mike decided to pop the big question on a causal night at home, proposing on a Scrabble board … Jen was ready, with her four-point letter “Y,” to place on a triple score! Okay, I added that last part in, sorry. Needless to say, she said YES and the “industrial chic” themed-wedding planning was underway!

The fun and clever (Letz being their last name) paper goods were made by the talented Courtney Callahan Paper from Chicago. The soft and romantic floral touches were created by the amazing team over at Festive Atmospheres. I’m always anxious to see what they come up with!

Believe me, this wedding was so pretty! Jen and that sweet lil’ bun on her head. LOVED it and every moment of this day.

Congrats you two! You’re pretty darn special.:)

Enjoy the photos!

Lisa + Jeff Engagement | St. Louis Engagement Photography

Hola!

How was your weekend?! I’m finally calming down after a fun-filled fiesta birthday weekend. Saturday the 4th, my actual birthday, we photographed a wedding at the St. Louis Zoo, and Sunday we had a small Cinco de Mayo party at the house to celebrate life and all things Mexican-inspired! So sadly, it’s time to put the sombreros away until next year! I will have to get around to sharing a few photos – we even had a Frieda-style painting station.:)

Talk about two people in love. Lisa and Jeff are just that. The day of the shoot, we met at Remy’s Wine Bar, the location where they first met through mutual friends for a glass of wine and then headed to the Wash U campus for some pretty portraits. The proposal? Oh yes… hiking Yosemite National Park where Jeff asked a hiking stranger to take a picture of them, but he actually video’d the proposal.:)

I can’t wait for the BIG DAY in September! Obviously, my job is going to be so easy with these two.

Enjoy the photos!

The Cole Family | St. Louis Family Photography

First thing out of my mouth when I loaded these photos on my hard drive … I L-O-V-E this family! I have been lucky enough to work with them since little “G” was a newborn, and here she is 2! Although they no longer live here, they found the time during their STL visit to do a family session with me. (Thank you!) There was no rescheduling, so the weather had to cooperate. Of course, the day we planned the session, there was a major dip in the temperature and rain was in the forecast. So we decided to work inside the Jewel Box and then once we warmed up we moved outside.

I clearly don’t need to keep rambling about the weather (I tend to do that), as I’m sure you already see it – this family is beyond gorgeous! It’s very clear that this beautiful couple is really proud of their little ones and their sweet, sweet family. And rightfully so!

Enjoy the photos!

Molly + John Engagement | St. Louis Engagement Photography

Spring is certainly getting off to a slow start, but the Botanical Gardens sure does have some pretty blooms! So we are wrapping up our last engagement sessions for our 2013 couples, and Molly + John happen to be one of them. Okay, I really do love all my couples but from the moment this couple walked in for our first meeting I was head-over-heels. There they were standing arm ‘n arm cradling a bottle of wine! Something so unexpected and sweet! Well, we ended up opening it for our meeting and needless to say I was so pleased they wanted us to be a part of their BIG day.

Molly wore this gorge white dress with the hottest details – low cut back and shoulder pads to add just a little hint of edge. John being the perfectly handsome arm candy. Ladies, I know you are going to ask – the dress is from RevolveClothing.com.  :)

I cannot wait for their special day this October!

Enjoy the photos!

Gorgeous! Love all of these. The wide one under the tulip poplar, and the last one with the boxwoods, make me swoon the most though :)

Meghan + Ande | St. Louis Engagement Photography

For the past couple years I have invited couples into our home for the initial bridal consult. I was really over the task of hauling all my albums to a Starbucks, plus I walked out smelling like a coffee bean.;)I was a little nervous and apprehensive at first, but now I love it! It’s a great way to relax and have fun while we chat. The couple also gets a good sense of my style and the type of artwork (large photos;)) we have on our walls! We have one of our very own engagement photos printed on canvas (24×36) and framed in an antique gilded frame. It looks amazing and it seems to be a favorite for everyone. So I finally met a couple who drew inspiration from the print, and wanted to get DRESSED UP! The perfect time to do it – during an engagement session!

Meet Meghan and Ande. Gah, I’m in love with these two. Sweet as can be and so beautiful! The downtown St. Louis library has been closed for a little over 2 years while it went through a $70 million renovation. It is worth seeing, and I’m sure this is going to be a hot spot for wedding photos this season. I can’t wait to go back with another look + couple! Unfortunately, the floors were just waxed so we couldn’t go in the main “ballroom-esq” area. So that will be next on my list!

Couples ask all the time if they should bring props and if I have any ideas for them. Props are a sentimental touch and for an engagement session, I think tying them into the wedding would be a nice touch. So since this shoot was a little more styled, we opted for beautiful flowers! The pretty gardenia hair piece and bouquets were made by the talented Barb over at Bloomin’ Buckets. Thank you, Barb! If you are interested in using flowers for your engagement, have your florist add it into the quote of your wedding flowers.:)

Enjoy the prettiness! And congratulations to the happy couple.
