Let’s take a moment to congratulate Ryan and Allie on their one year anniversary of their Destination Wedding! Boy oh boy, time flies. I was so ecstatic to shoot this Seaside wedding in Destin, Florida. It was a perfect location for a perfect couple who you would think came straight from the modeling agency. I’ll take them again and again and again and again..jpg "Fall Family Field Photo Ideas Rocks_0173.jpg")

I laughed this weekend. I laughed harder than I have laughed in a really long time and I needed it more than most people would understand. I wouldn’t have had that experience if it weren’t for our good friends Steph and Joe. We only get to hang out about once a year so we make it worth our while and we go all out, Pictures, Grilling, Games, Girl Scout Cookies and Sleepovers, just to name a few. Part of me wishes I would have documented the entire evening because it’s nights like those that remind you why you have friends in the first place. Little Ben is turning one in just a couple of short weeks. Who knew that this time would fly by so quickly since our last visit just over a year ago? Check out how handsome he is, if he could talk, I know he couldn’t ask for more amazing parents. Thank you for such a memorable weekend.
Who says it has to be beautiful seventy degree weather for photos? “Not I”, said the photographer. Kudos to the Schnurbusch family, who powered through it. You can’t even tell right? Take a peek at just a few of the ridiculous amount of photographs we made and tell me what your favorite time of year for family photos is.
I had such an amazing time at Becky and Greg’s Cape Girardeau, MO wedding. Let me start off by saying that I didn’t get to meet the couple until about two weeks before their actual wedding day. Everything up until that point had been done via email or phone conversations. I had no idea what I was missing! This couple is so sweet, funny and so down to earth. I think we spent more time just chatting about random topics than the actual wedding itself.
The ceremony was held in the quaint town of Pocahontas, MO. The church was adorably tiny and it gave such a great sense of warm and cozy togetherness. That’s the only way I know how to explain it. After the ceremony we headed towards downtown Cape Girardeau to have some fun. We were lucky to take the scenic route and the drive was amazing! I have been on some beautiful drives in Missouri, but this one was along the Katy Trail and it struck a chord. It has been beckoning me back ever since.
Downtown Cape had a lot to offer and we found the cutest pastel buildings to shoot beside. I have a love for anything light and airy, especially when the colors and architecture reminds me of anything you can find seaside. Luckily, Becky’s favorite color is green, so we were in total agreement over the location.
I am so thankful to have had Becky and Greg as my clients. Our personalities just clicked and I can’t wait to do an anniversary shoot for them next October!
