Kaetlyn + Francesco at Tower Grove Park

Kaetlyn and Francesco are two lovers IN LOVE.

How much more romantic can you get? Well, let's see.
She went to Italy on a college trip.
Fell in love with a handsome Italian.
And decided to stay.

Yep, pretty romantic.

They were in town for Kaetlyn's cousin's wedding and so I got to meet Francesco, the handsome Italian that swept Kaetlyn off her feet.

We met at Tower Grove Park and wandered around for a bit. They are such a darling, cute couple.

I tend to ask people to kiss....a lot.
Sometimes people are a little reserved and aren't comfortable doing this in public. Not these two. I love it when two people are so comfortable with each other. Makes my job of capturing images of their love that much easier. Did I tell you how much I LOVE my job? Well, I really do. Love my job, that is.




Whoa, super sexy? Right?




Awww. Such a favorite.




Another favorite.









My oh my. I guess you can see why possibly Kaetlyn was swept off her feet?










They were sooo fun to photograph.

Sneak Peak

Just a sneak peak. As always, more pics to come.

Meet the Family: Pattersons

These guys are one of my favorite familys. I've know Aaron and Heather since way back when...before they were together. They've always been very stylish...thanks to Heather.

Here's one of my fav's of them.

They needed some new family pictures done since the last time they did this was when the girls were little bitty. I think Ella, their youngest, was just a toddler.

NOTE TO EVERYONE: If you don't have fun family pictures done...something like this... every year, try and get them done every few years. You would be surprised how much the family changes and snapshots are just not the same.




The girls were giving me their best interpretation of America's Next Top Models. Ella is a super girly girl and so she's particularly good at this.




Where did these amazing eyes come from right? Oh My Word!!!! Watch out boys!!!!



So silly!!!! Love these two shots below.







Yep, Urban Style is what they wanted....this is definitely IT!.


I LOVE their expressions and body language here below.
You can tell they have so much fun together (even after over a decade of marriage).



Daddy's Girls!!!!


The Hot Parents!

Engaged: Rachel + Jeff

Rachel and Jeff are adorable! And their little girl,Ellie, is even more so.

A while back, we went out to Faust Park for their engagement/family session and had soooo much fun.


Rachel has an amazingly sweet smile. See what I mean?

I think this is my favorite shot.


Look at this little sweetheart. Takes after mom I'd say.








So handsome!



Miss Eleanor. You're gonna break some hearts when you grow up.

The little family.

Sneak Peak: Kristin & Rob

Engaged: Sara + Richie

Wow! I am super-excited to photo this couple!

Sara and Richie will be getting married in a few short months.

We did their engagement session a while back but (....being the slow-poke blogger that I am) I hadn't had time to get this on the blog yet.

Sara is STUNNINGLY GORGEOUS.....and Richie isn't hard on the eyes either.

I met Sara thru another one of my brides, Katie.

We scheduled this shoot so that Richie's daughter, Ashlyn, could join us for the photo shoot.

Isn't she a doll?

I really had to coax all of them to work with the camera.....JUST KIDDING!!!
Seriously, they were sooooooo easy to photo.
I mean, all they really had to do was breath. Thats it.







I love this one. Happiness exudes from their beaming eyes.


Love this one of Ashlyn.


Isn't that sweet? Picking a flower for her.


Sara laughs easily. Love that about her.




















Sara + Richie, can't wait for your wedding in September!!!
