Laurie and Sean - Engagement Session

I met up with Laurie and Sean on a Sunday evening (despite the weather forecast for rain all weekend!) and took their engagement pictures in the Grand Center area of mid-town St. Louis.  Laurie is a music teacher and wanted to do some pictures in and around the Powell Hall / Fox Theater area.  We walked all around Grand Center and found lots of fun places to play and take pictures.  They are getting married on the day after Christmas at St. Martin of Tours...should be a beautiful wedding!

Beth and Robert - Engagement

Beth and Robert are getting married May 23rd at St. Francis Borgia in Washington, MO. They both live in Kansas City and I was honored to be chosen to photograph their wedding. As fate would have it...I shot their engagement pictures on Va

lentine's Day! :) They happened to be in eastern MO for a wedding and we arranged to shoot their engagement pictures on their way to the wedding.

I had so much fun with Beth and Robert -- I even sent them into the Orchid Show at the MoBot Garden and I told them to ignore me...that I would be acting like one of the nature photographers shooting orchid pictures but I was actually shooting sneaky pictures of my clients. I felt like a paparazzi. :) They changed clothes (into their wedding guest attire) and I shot a few more pictures of them...in, of all places, the Shaw's (err Missouri Botanical) Garden parking lot. There is a beautiful stone wall surrounding the lot which made for a nice backdrop for our last few shots. :)

Emily and Barry - Engagement

Emily and Barry live...um...somewhere on the east coast...West Virginia, perhaps?  LOL  I'll have to check their facebook pages.  :)  Despite my geographical short-comings...I was able to meet up with this fantastically fun couple over the Christmas break and we shot their engagement pictures at Shaw's Garden.  I cannot wait for their October 2009 wedding...they are SO MUCH FUN together!  They were both wedding party members of past weddings I've shot (and not the same wedding either...get that!).  I'm honored, though not surprised -- he-he, that they chose me to photograph their wedding day.  :)

Cindy and Matt - Engagement

On a chilly afternoon and evening I had the pleasure of shooting Cindy and Matt's engagement pictures in various spots throughout downtown St. Louis.  Cindy really, really wanted some pictures that featured Christmas lights in the background...so we awaited the right time after the sun set and we shot some pictures in Kiener Plaza.  Cindy was bundled up nice...but poor Matt got pretty cold...you're a trooper, Matt!  :)

Jessica and Daniel - Engagement Session

Daniel and Jessica are engaged to be married on January 3, 2009. I don't get too many January weddings so I am excited to preserve the many memories of Jessica and Daniel's wedding. Daniel is a bricklayer and has done a lot of work at the Missouri Botanical Garden -- so it was fitting that Jessica chose MBG for their engagement session.

Nikki and Joe - Engagement Session

Nikki and Joe will be getting married later this year at St. Margaret of Scotland Catholic church. They are so much fun...we had a blast shooting their engagement pictures. Check 'em out.

Amy and Greg - Engagement Session

Amy and Greg are getting married in November. I had the pleasure of shooting their engagement pictures last Sunday night (during my marathon shooting weekend!) at Carondelet Park. Amy is a referral from my 2006 wedding clients Lindsay and Jeremy (how I do love referrals!). Thank you Amy and Greg for choosing me to shoot your wedding this fall.

Christina and Tony - Engagement Session

I met Christina and Tony early last Sunday morning to shoot their engagement pictures in Tower Grove Park. Christina was a referral from my 2006 wedding clients -- Annie and Frank. I look forward to shooting Christina and Tony's wedding this fall.
