Jim and Heather - Married

Sometimes I wonder how I got so lucky - lucky enough to meet so many wonderful people, to be allowed into their lives. On August 21st, I had the pleasure of photographing Jim and Heather, as well as meeting their wonderful family and friends. They were seriously one of the most kind groups of people I have met - so welcoming and friendly. Not to mention that we started with pictures on Jim's parent farms. I love wide open spaces and green meadows, so it was a real treat for me. It was a photographers dream to be able to have such fun people to spend the day with - it made the day go so smooth. And when one of the bride's sisters told me that she reads my blog, my admiration of the group only grew more. :) I truly enjoyed being a part of Heather and Jim's day. Enjoy your sneak peek!

Adam and Jessica - Married

I love love. I really do! The wedding of Jessica and Adam did not disappoint in watching the union of another couple who's love for each other was so real and evident. The day itself was wonderful. The ceremony location was absolutely gorgeous and provided an awesome backdrop for pictures and their wedding - to be followed up with a reception at Memorial Stadium. Just the perfect combination. Add in the fact that the two of them were so much fun, as well as their family and friends - the day was beyond amazing. I know that these two love birds are destined for success and I was so happy to be the one to capture their beginning. Enjoy your sneak peek!

Gorgeous! One of my favorites.

Love these

This GQ shot - totally rocks (in my oh, so humble opinion)

Gray tuxes - LOVE!!!! Future couples, take note

Love this moment of laughter - it was just one of many throughout the ceremony. 

Watch out boys - let a real pro handle the ball. :)

The columns at Memorial Stadium - oh how I love you

The father/daughter dance - a fast one that had the crowd laughing and cheering. :)

And this is how these groomsmen get down! :)

Thank you so much!!! I can't wait to show you the rest.

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. :)
