St. Louis Wedding Photography: Robin + Paul

It's been a busy, busy wedding season. Here's another splendid wedding to share with you.

*

Robin and Paul were married on a warm, sunshiney day in St. Louis

(they currently live in Kansas City).

Fun right?


Mr. Cooooooolnes(it was really actually about 100 degrees outside)


A favorite.


We like to be silly and have fun when taking pictures.












The hotel had a nice little area and so we had to stop and take a few pics.


Oh La La. The ladies look all sassy!





My fave of the guys.


We really considered getting ice cream...it was sooooo hot that day.





While I was working with the guys the ladies were trying to keep cool in the shade.

Yes, just a few more pics. Hang on there. I promise I'll be done sooon.


This cracks me up! I have no idea what they are all saying.


Too funny!

Lets look at some of the details:Flowers by the amazing Sisters Flowers.



I like to play around with the rings a bit and try to create some artistic imagery with them.What do you think about this?








Make-up by the fabulous, Lauren Wilkerson.



Co-ordination/Planner Extraordinaire, Shayna of St. Louis Wedding Consultants.




While Shayna was getting the girls all ready, this is what the boys were doing.









They were married at The Shrine of St. Joseph in St. Louis.





This is Paul reaction as Robin comes down the aisle.





And now.....they're all married!


Their reception was at Kemolls.



This little guy is going to quite the ladies man when he grows up. He and I had an extensive conversation....such a flirt. He really loved the camera I think. Soo cute!






This delicious cake was made by The Cakery. They are one of the best in the area.

Worlds Fair Pavilion Wedding: Whitney + Steve

It was HOT, HOT, HOT the day Whitney and Steve were married. No matter that, Whitney and Steve had a wedding to remember. I LOVED every detail of this wedding.

S T U N N I N G bride. No doubt about it.

Uhhhh....girls after my own heart. If you can't tell, I have a love affair with shoes.


LOVE!!!!


I want a canvas of this!!!!


Gorgeous!


When I saw these stairs, you should have heard the squeal of glee I emitted. Seriously. I couldn't wait to ask Whitney and Steve to try this for me. I know.....I'm weird. But I LOVE IT. It totally satisfies my fashioniasta, magazine editorial sensibilites.


Another wacky bit of fun.


The light here is just lovely. And the couple....yeah, even lovlier!


Another favorite. I kinda like the gleam in his eye...like he knows a secret joke.


Thanks to my 2nd shooter, Brandi, for her exceptional artistic eye for capturing some great details.



The fellas. Yeah, they know they're cool.


Ladies. You are stunning.










These little gems, were custom made by a local artisan. Aren't they gorgeous?


I love the brown curly-cue things on this boutonniere.







I'm so fascinated by the bird-cage veils. Very stylish.









Whitney's shoes.
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE when the bride has some amazing shoes...like these.





FAVORITE!!!!!!!!








That first kiss is always so precious.


The reception was beyond awesome.


The poor cake was starting to melt due to the heat....but still oh so pretty (check out the light).












Instead of a bouquet toss, Whitney dedicated her bouquet to her grandparents (here dancing) in appreciation of their long and happy marriage. Isn't that sweet.
