Gina and Kevin - Married

July 24, 2010 marked a fabulous day of celebration - it was a wedding that I think everyone should have been invited to. I can not even begin to describe how much fun this wedding was and the people that were part of this day. From the day I met with Kevin and Gina, I knew the two of them were going to be blast, but I don't think I could have even prepared myself for the greatness that was going to occur. From the moment I walked in, the bridal party were all smiles and the day just went along with that same atmosphere. When we arrived to the reception at Memorial Stadium, I became a spectator in a day of men in tuxes running along the field throwing the football to each other. It was definitely a site to be seen. :) Oh - and can I mention that these two are officially the King and Queen of the dance floor. Of all the weddings I have ever photographed, I have never seen the bride and groom stay on the dance floor as much as these two - and can I say that they have some moves. Enjoy your sneak peek!



These two were two of the cutest little flower girl and ring bearers I have ever seen




Although I'm a Cardinals fan, I will say that this was a pretty cool detail of the bride and groom. I've not seen something quite this cool.  Side note: These two die hard cubs fan now live in St. Louis. Let's see how true they stay to their team! :)
LOVE!
See - they got on the field and they just started running. Such fun.
Gorgeous people

Who doesn't want to play a little football on the Memorial Field?!?

So sweet
A contender for the desk of Kevin :)
One of my favorite parts of the day. The two of them sang their entire first dance song to each other. Such sweet love.


I love this image. They are the middle of the dance floor almost ALL night.
You two are so awesome! Wish I was in Hawaii with the both of you right now, but can't wait to see you when you get back. :)

Amy and Clayton - Married

I would have to say that one of the hardest parts of my job is actually trying to decide what to write when I post pictures of a wedding. :) I talk about how every wedding is such a joy for me to be a part of, and I honestly mean that. I mean, your wedding is such a HUGE day in your life, and the people who choose to be a part of that make a difference in that day. So it's a big deal for me to be chosen as a part of wedding days. Each one humbles me in a special way.  Maybe I'm a little cheesy or emotional, but I think it's good that I feel that special bond with each of my couples. So needless to say, the wedding of Amy and Clayton did not disappoint in my love affair with weddings. Besides the fact that they are two of the most photogenic people I have ever photographed, their kindness and love is one that is just amazing to be a witness of. Although it was a very long day (and unbearably hot at some times - thanks for being troopers), this couple rocked it out from beginning to end. I know there is nothing but greatness for the two of them and I'm so honored to be the one to capture their beginning. Enjoy your sneak peek!


Gorgeous!

Love how the bride got a little choked up coming down the aisle


His expression makes me smile - so happy and in love



oh yea!
Amy and her twin sister - such beautiful ladies

Where their story began - The Ames Library





Oh - she was rocking it out all night long! :)


Congrats!

Amanda and Luke - Married

Last weekend I had the privilege of being witness to Amanda and Luke becoming husband and wife. It was such a great day with a bunch of great people. I love being a part of such a glorious day - such a powerful day in a couple's life. The two of them were so much in love and overall the day was full of love. I hope you are enjoying your honeymoon in Alaska - enjoy your sneak peek!


Beautiful ladies
Handsome men


Love

Seriously - these guys got some air. Who says white boys (or girls) can't jump? :)
This is for the "missing" groomsman - who is serving our country overseas. This image just brings joy to my heart!

So sweet - one of my favorites
