Emily and Matt - Wedding



Here is the wedding of Emily and Matt. Their ceremony took place at St. Monica's Church in Creve Coeur, with the reception following at the St. Louis Airport Hilton. Emily and Matt are extremely laid-back and mellow, so their wedding day reflected that. Even when we had a bit of a weird surprise at the reception (which you will see below), they went with the flow and just had fun with it.

























I LOVE this pop of green. What an awesome color for a spring wedding!

I love how Emily looks like a greek goddess with that dress, and the columns.




Oh boy! The fire alarm went off right as guests were starting to enter the reception from the cocktail area. The whole hotel had to be evacuated and the fire department had to investigate.
Luckily, nothing was on fire...someone most likely just pulled one of the fire alarms. So we all went back in - talk about a memorable entrance to your wedding reception!













Congrats to Emily and Matt!

Andrea and Chris - Engagement



Here are Andrea and Chris, who are getting married this June. Andrea and Chris really like hiking and nature, so we decided to do their session at Laumeier Sculpture Park. When you think of the sculpture park, you most likely think of the gigantic red sculptures out in the middle of the park. But if you go through the trails, you will find hidden gems among the woods and creeks.



Back in the woods, there is a wooden sculpture area that we've wanted to use for a while. We just needed the right people, willing to go with our vision :)



























Andrea and Chris, we'll see you sooner than you think!
