St. Louis Maternity Photography: Marissa

It's been a long time since I've done a maternity session. I've missed how delightful it can be to document such a loving, nurturing time as this.

We had the perfect sunset for Marissa's pics. This one is a favorite!!!!


I LOVE LOVE LOVE this one. This is a favorite of the year!
I asked them to go over to that spot there where the light was beautiful and....this is what they gave me.








Another favorite.




















Look at the roundness of that belly!!!
When we did this session, she was due in two weeks...which of course means, she could go ANYtime. Her doctor even said maybe by the end of the week.
Doesn't she look FABULOUS for 9 months?!?!





Sooo cute!


Uummmmmmm.....G O R G E O U S !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!












Thanks to Marissa for letting me capture this stage in your life!

Washington, Missouri Engagement Session: Carrie + Tyson

When I first met Carrie for our initial consultation, I knew right away that she and I would get along really, really well. She laughs freely and sparkles with happiness.

I met Tyson and Carrie for their engagment session in their hometown....the corncob capital of the world.










I knew these two were my kind of clients when we passed this brick building and Tyson says, "What about here? I like this." I thought....how did you know I was heading there for our next spot?





Love me a little sunflare!!!!


















Tyson likes to make silly faces sometimes...








I LOVE this next series of images.













Carrie + Tyson, can't wait for your wedding in just a few short months!

St. Louis Wedding Photography: Cindy + Jason

Cindy and Jason were married at the ultra fab Four Seasons St. Louis.

It's a very modern, sleek, luxurious place.

Check out the view on this staircase!



Even though it was a dreary, overcast day we still went outside for pics. I mean, for real, how could you not when the city skyline is just RIGHT THERE!!!


Doesn't Jason look just oh so Mr. Coooooool.


I got to hang out with the guys for a bit before the ceremony.

Guys definitely know how to just chill.

I love details of the wedding.....ESPECIALLY THE SHOES!!!!

Check out Cindy's pair.




Sweeeeet, right?!?!


I love the facial expression. The whole time they were getting ready, these ladies were laughing and joking.


So pretty.


Loved her flowers. Fresh flowers are the best! Look how vibrant they are.


That moment the bride comes down the aisle with her father is so classic.





So solemn.





On the way to the reception at NEO on Locust, we stopped for some fun group photos.

I think this might be one of my favorite group shot of the guys.

The reception site had an impressive bar area.

All the pretty ladies!

A toast from the Maid of Honor.





The had a rockin' DJ that got people on the dance floor!!!!


and to start the party the First Dance...






And then everyone else was invited to join in....

Thank You SOOOO much Cindy & Jason for being such easy to work with fun clients!!!

Thank you to Carolyn Burke for your coordination of the event from start to finish. Great Job!
