Engagement

Michael & Meghan – Jefferson City, Missouri

Engagement 3 . 27 . 14

I am so happy we have made it to the Spring months. Sessions have started to pick up again with the nice weather, and I get to work with my Fall wedding couples! Michael and Meghan met in law school at Mizzou. She had been eyeing him up and they finally connected while out on the town one evening. After graduation, they both started working in the Capitol City and will hold their wedding here this Fall. They are a seriously cute couple! Meghan is spunky and energetic, I think we should be BFF’s! Michael is kind and adores his future wife. The brought along their darling little pooch, Bella, for some family pictures.

We decided to start their engagement session at the Capitol since Meghan works there. After we toured around the property and downtown Jefferson City, we headed out to the river access. It is a spot I have been wanting to shoot at for a while. We walked some of the trails and found a rocky peninsula into the river to catch the glow of sunset. I enjoyed spending my Saturday evening with such an awesome couple! Can’t wait for October!

Thomas & Jennifer, St. Louis Missouri

Engagement 1 . 10 . 14

These two just can’t help it…seriously a gorgeous couple! I met Thomas and Jennifer in St. Louis while they were home over the holidays. They live in London, therefore, traveling back to the states isn’t something they get to do very much with their busy work schedules. They are a darling couple; so sweet to each other. I love how laid back they are together. We met at Thomas’ parents home for their engagement pictures. When they are home, they spend a lot of time there so we decided to use this spot for their photo-shoot. His family was so kind to open their home .

It was a rather chilly day in December so Tom and Jennifer had to bundle up to stay warm! Luckily, they had a cup of joe to keep them warm. We ended the session in the family room reading a book and watching TV. Looking forward to their spring wedding in April!

Codi & Sarah- Kansas City Missouri

Engagement 12 . 18 . 13

As I was chatting with Sarah over the phone about her wedding, visions, and style, I knew we were a perfect match. Her and Codi met while she was working at her Dad’s business. He came in one day and they hit it off. Codi proposed while vacationing in Glacier Park, Montana. Sarah came to me with a unique thought for her engagement session. She wanted to do part of the shoot styled in the 1920’s. They both really love that era and collect antiques and heirlooms from that generation. I was in LOVE with the idea! They wanted the shoot to resemble the movie “Lawless” that depicted a family who made their living off of moonshine in the 1920’s. Sarah has antique chairs, fur coats, pistols, the original blue mason jars they used for transport, and a Model A Ford. How cool is that?!?

For the first part of their session they wanted to take a few around the small town of Pleasant Hill, where they both work at a family owned grain elevator. The downtown area of Pleasant Hill is darling and has several older buildings. I love the small town atmosphere, everyone we passed on the street knew Sarah and Codi and stopped to chat. Their fur baby, June, also posed for some pictures. She is such a cute pup! Nick was unenthused when I came home requesting one just like her :)

Can’t wait for 2014 and their spring wedding!

Brian & Megan, Engaged

Engagement 11 . 26 . 13

Congrats to Brian and Megan on their engagement and wedding next year! These two are so much fun. I think I laughed their entire session, Brian is so funny! We definitely braved the cold for their session. The best part about shooting in cool temperatures is having cuddly couples!

We started their session downtown Jefferson City. I was especially in love with Megan’s Louboutin’s heels! We then headed for one of my favorite spots along the Katy Trail which is so pretty this time of the year. Looking forward to May! Jefferson City and Columbia Missouri Wedding Photography (1)
