Eddie and Megan

What a great day to enjoy the weather. I had so much fun with Megan and Eddie last week. We found so many great spots for their engagement photos. She just wanted the photos to have the "fall feel" to them and I think we got exactly that with the leaves and grass that has changed color. When they got there she said "I hope you don't mind but we brought a prop" Of course I didn't mind but when she told me it was a pumpkin that said Save The Date I was excited because it was such a cute idea. I know that the wedding will be full of little details that I look forward to capturing.

Love is in the air

I was happy to go out to Montelle Winery with Kerri and Joe for their engagement session. It was a beautiful day and the drive was amazing. We had a great time chatting about the wedding while we wandered the winery grounds. Joe even got a few jokes in there that made both Kerri and I laugh out loud! They also invited some friends down so they could spend the day there and enjoy the view with some great wine. I look forward to the wedding because I know we are going to have so much fun and the wedding party will be having good time! These two are so easy to talk to and just very relaxed with each other, which shows in the photos.

Jessica and Alex

It has been a long time since I have been to Creve Couer park and I was so happy to go with Jessica and Alex because we got some amazing photos. There was quite a bit of walking to get to the other side of the lake but since we took photos the whole way there it wasn't that bad. The colors that they put into the wedding really made everything pop. Orange flowers, shoes and sash on the bridesmaids. Alex even got creative and wore Superman shoes! It was a windy day but the wedding party didn't let that stop them from having a great time. There was even a limbo at the reception. Wishing you two years of laughs and smiles.

Hugh and Dawn

10.10.10 was a perfect day for a wedding! It is always fun to photograph a wedding with only a small amount of guests because you really get to know everyone there. Dawn and Hugh decided to get married on the arch grounds and then take a motercycle ride around downtown. I was surprised to see Dawn hop on in her dress, but they both had a great time. It was also very special to see her daughter as a part of the ceremony, the three of them make a perfect family. Good luck in the future and it is going to be very hard to pick out photos because there are so many great ones!

Brian and Tricia

How exciting to be a part of your friends wedding, I was proud to be a bridesmaid for Brian and Tricia. Lou and Emily had a great time riding on the party bus with the crazy wedding party. We went all over St. Louis and got some really amazing photographs. The most memorable part of the day for me was when Brian teared up watching Tricia come down the isle. I think he got all the bridesmaids going after that! It was an amazing day and I look forward to being friends with these two and watching their love grow over the years.

Family Ties

We have been photographing people from the McGraw family for about 5 years now. It all started with Erin and her two kids and then we just did her sister Caitlin's wedding and now we have photographed their brother Brian's family. It is amazing to be such a big part of this family because everyone is so wonderful to work with and we have a great time everytime we get together for a session.
You would never know that Declan missed his nap by all of the smiles he gave us. And Connell was such a great big brother trying to help us get the perfect family photo. We look forward to many more memories with the McGraw family!
