Sarah and Nick's Engagements

Here are the engagements of Sarah and Nick! Are they just not the cutest?!? We kept them here in Cedar Creek and they took some really great shots! This couple's chemistry is amazing. You can really tell how much they love each other and enjoy each other just by the way they look. All I really had to do was put them in the right background and light and they did the rest. Just the guidance of, "okay, love on each other!" was all they needed and you can see it all in their faces. We did some candid shots, romantic shots, and of course the "mom" shots and the combination of them all made out for a GREAT portfolio!

I hope you all enjoy them!!

Wedding at Powell Gardens

Here we go! Our first wedding to go up on our new blog!!! This is the wedding of Carey and Jeremy. They were married in May and I must say, they took some phenomenal pictures! They had both their ceremony and reception at Powell Gardens and Powell put on a great wedding. We took Carey and Jeremy to Nelson Atkins, Loose Park, and the fountain on Ward Parkway. Then we went on the drive to Powell and took some great shots on the grounds of Powell as well! This couple has such a sassy personality that we plan to take them out for a Trash the Dress session in a few weeks. We want to show their sensual side!! Oh, I do want to mention that my dad and I have been playing around with different color processes with our images. Some of these have a Polaroid effect on them. Thoughts? Likes? Dislikes? Edgy?

Anyway, I hope you all enjoy viewing some of Carey and Jeremy's wedding photos and give us a shout if any one is up for some great shots like theirs!!












Engagements in Cedar Creek

Here are some GREAT photos taken here in Cedar Creek! The couple is Ashley and Ryan and their personalities are just too funny! I have this great trick I use to get people to laugh and laugh at each other and Ryan was just too smart for it! You could see some of his "I don't think so" looks in a few of the images. I hope I did a good job of showing the images where he is NOT giving me that look!!! I'm just giving Ryan a hard time. They have some really cute and playful shots, which I love, and I hope you all enjoy them as well!

Engagements at Kauffman Gardens

Hello Everyone! I have another great engagement session to post. We'll have several more coming in the next weeks, as well as some weddings. But right now I want to show off Lindsay and Joe's engagements. We went down to Kauffman Gardens and fought off the rain. Kauffman Gardens is a beautiful memorial garden for Ewing and Muriel Kauffman. It is open through out the entire year and is exquisite even in the winter. Lindsay made an excellent suggestion in going here. The grounds go out past the garden and we were able to get some shots of Lindsay and Joe with the Nelson Atkins behind them!

I hope you all enjoy their sitting!
