So this is another one of those times where I’m super grateful for the internet — that’s a change for me, as it’s usually at the top of the list of things that make me cranky (as well as those damn kids that won’t stay off my lawn; yes, I’m aware I’m an angry little […]

So full disclosure, I’ve been sitting on this blog post for far too long. I know, I’m mad at me, too. Emily and Andrew are one of my favorite couples ever, and so I wanted to make sure this post did them and their beautiful day in Kimmswick the right amount of justice it deserves. […]

Y’all. Katie and Matt are just too much. Last year at some point, I was fortunate enough to be included in a new wedding package Silver Oaks was offering for February 2019 and from the first email Katie sent me, I knew I was just going to love her. She is the sweetest gal, with […]

Ugh, I love engagement sessions, and this one was especially fun. I’ve said that I love my clients about a million times before, and that is especially true of Amber and Andrew!! I met them originally when I shot Bethany and Corey’s wedding in October 2018 – they were in the wedding party (and beyond […]

Another day in quarantine means another Law and Order: SVU binge sesh and another blog post! Spring seems to be on its way here, and our yard has the daffodils to prove it, so today, I’m throwing it back to last spring, when our days at AATR were filled with all kinds of beautiful spring […]

If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times: “off season” is a myth!! Jody and I have laughed about this on more than once occasion; we always seem to think that things will slow down in the winter, but as usual, in early 2019, they did not, and all I have to […]

One great thing about quarantine is that I’ve had a tonnnnnn of time to look back through old work and plan more blog posts! Blogging more often has certainly been on my list of “things to do” for quite a while now, and, if nothing else, this extended vacation situation has allowed me to get […]

Another October wedding, another happy photographer! This day was full of things I love — dogs, the St. Louis Blues, an epic golden hour sunset, flower crowns and oh, tons of giggles. Nena and Alex planned a day that was a ton a fun, and I am so glad to have been included. Their big […]

So, when I got word in December that my application was accepted to be a vendor in the wonderful Off-White Wedding Show, I knew I was going to have to make a totally badass booth. After doing the show previously and seeing some of the amazing set ups that other vendors had, I started brainstorming […]

Welp, dear blog readers, I can officially check off “first destination wedding” from the bucket list and before anyone @s me, YES, Chicago is a destination. I freakin’ love Chicago, almost as much as I love Sam and Johnny. Full disclosure, this one was close to my heart because Sam is my husband Alex’s cousin […]

Y’all, this one was a hoot. I knew I loved Bethany and Corey from the minute that I met them, and I was NOT WRONG. Hooray – I’m usually not right about a lot of stuff (you can ask Alex; in the history of our relationship, I have been right exactly four times, one of […]

So, it’s finally starting to feel like winter here in St. Louis (um yes, it is January, I am aware) and after the few inches of snow we got this weekend, I started reminiscing about Claire & Dylan’s big day last February – can’t believe it’s almost been a whole year! Anyway, they had just […]
