Engagement

Devin & Morgan Jefferson City, Missouri Engagement Session

Engagement 8 . 17 . 15

You may remember these two from Devin’s crazy romantic proposal we photographed on 4th of July! You have a good one, Morgan, hang on to him :) I simply adore these two, I have had the privilege to get to know both of them over the past year and I can’t wait to see what life has in store for this little family. Morgan knew about this location of Lilly pads and it made for a perfect spot for their engagement pictures. After shooting at the lake, we headed back to her parents house to get a few pictures with their sweet pup, Maizee. My other talents include dog whispering ;)  If you get engaged on July 4th, it only makes sense to get some photos with sparklers! Can’t wait for June!

Jonathan & Danielle, Engaged Jefferson City, Missouri

Engagement 7 . 29 . 15

I am so excited to share this couple and their love story on my blog! I got to spend a week with these two earlier this month. They eloped to Lake of the Ozark’s and were joined by close friends and family. The two met in college, fell in love, and moved to Alaska for their careers.

We shot their engagement session and wedding all in one week. It just so happens the only day it didn’t rain that week was their wedding. We are thankful for that! For their engagement session, we had not choice but to shoot in the rain. I was a little worried how the rain would affect our shoot, but these two light up each other. They are so photogenic! I loved that Danielle chose an elegant white dress for the shoot that doubled as her rehearsal dinner dress. Can’t wait to post their wedding next week!

Matt & Krystal: Reed Memorial Wildlife Area, Lee Summit Mo

Engagement 7 . 24 . 15

Matt, Krystal, and I spent a beautiful summer evening together at Reed Memorial Wildlife Area in Lee Summit, Missouri for their engagement pictures. I love these two, they were introduced by mutual friends and hit it off immediately. I am sure you can see their chemistry together from these photos. So sweet and happy together :) Krystal is a photographer and videographer with Veramae Photography. It is always a pleasure to work with another industry professional! I can’t wait for their August wedding in Omaha, congrats!

Eric & Sheniqua, Engagement Chicago, Illinois

Engagement 5 . 11 . 15

These two, cute as they can be. We had a wonderful time working with this sweet couple in Chicago a few weekends ago. Spring is so beautiful in the city! Eric and Sheniqua met in college, they fell in love during the summer when they both interned in Europe together. They moved to Chicago to pursue their dream jobs; in October they will seal the deal back in their home state of Missouri.

We started our photo-shoot at the Kinzie Street Bridge and then headed out to the other part of the city where they live. Our last stop was one of their favorite cafe’s where the two share a cup of coffee almost weekly. I can’t wait to work with you guys again, congrats on your engagement!

P.S. Thanks for the awesome pizza recommendation while we were in town ;)

Taylor & Shae, Jefferson City Engagement

Editorial Shoots, Engagement 1 . 15 . 15

I was so happy to team up with the News Tribune and Her Magazine for another year of the Best Proposal Contest. It is so fun reading all of the sweet love stories and I am always surprised by the creative proposals. This year Taylor and Shae grabbed the top spot for the best proposal. Taylor proposed to Shae this past year in an airplane ride that she thought was a trip to celebrate their 1st year anniversary. Their plane ride took them over their home were a 4 foot by 30 foot banner was staked to the ground below with the wording, “Shae, will you marry me?” She said yes!

We decided to photograph their engagement shoot that was going to be featured in the magazine at the Jefferson City Airport, with a small passenger plane similar to what they flew in that day. Imagine the coldest and windiest day you can, now multiply it by a thousand! It was crazy cold the day we photographed their session, but they look so warm and natural! To read the full story in the Her Magazine please click here. Congrats on your upcoming wedding; Nick and I can’t wait to be apart of it :)
