We have been so busy shooting lately, that we have fallen behind on processing! Here is a sneak-view for Lauren and Vince. . .until we have finished processing all of their wedding photos. Before you take a peek, I want you to know that Mrs. Lauren pretty much planned everything in 19 days (more on that later)!!! ENJOY!
Could they be any more model perfect?! And they both have the most stunning eyes!!!
Vince is playing hard to get. . . :)
More to come! Stay tuned. . . .
Julie contacted us via email about their shooting, mentioning that she wanted a few family pics, as well as some of her two kiddos, ages 4 and 2. We have been shooting a lot of weddings lately, and were excited to work with some kiddos again on a shoot. We were not disappointed when we met Jason, Julie, and their two precious (and most adorable) children!!
The “D” family lives next door to another family that we have done some sittings for. We love getting referrals b/c that means people are loving our photos! :) We agreed to meet at Quail Ridge Park on one of the most beautiful days. The weather was perfect. . .not too hot, not too cold, and the sun was shining, which made for some great golden overtones!
Let’s start off with one of the entire family. Do you not totally LOVE the clothing color combos?!
Here are a few of their four year old daughter. . .she was such a willing little participant, and so photogenic!! She was also very comfortable in front of the camera, which made for some adorable pics!
Here’s a few of their two year old son. . .what a handsome little dude!!
Here’s a couple of the two together. . . 
So, I couldn’t pick just ONE favorite. . .I narrowed it down to well, about 40, but here are four more that I just LOVE. We were blessed with such awesome lighting that day!
I love the way their shadows are stretched down the long path…
If you are interested in seeing any more from this shoot, take a look at the slideshow below!

We have a ton of pics to process still, but wanted to give the “D” fam a glimpse of what they have coming up! Here are a few to hold them over. . . you must admit, these are some of the cutest kids you have EVER seen!!! :)
Anna and Dan picked one of the coolest locations in St. Louis to get married: Busch Stadium! These Cardinal’s fans had the most perfect wedding and were surrounded by loving family and friends all day long. The only “bad” part about the day was the heat. . .seriously, I believe it was like 105 degrees with the heat index! A nice breeze helped keep everyone cool, but poor Anna! Can you imagine wearing 37 pounds of dress in the heat?! She did it flawlessly! She is runway-model gorgeous, and even the heat didn’t damper her beauty. . .take a look!
Before heading to the stadium, we stopped at Forest Park for some quick photos with Anna and her attendants. Anna’s dress was amazing. . .the bottom of it was some type of flowing, billowing, wonderfully-photographically amazing material. The breeze made for some nice effects with the dress & veil.
I love how the leaves framed Anna as she gazed upon her bouquet. . .
Dress details. . .
There is a closer look at that wonderful dress material. . . :)
The All Star Game Arch was still up, so we took a “few” photos with it. . .
Is she not a most beautiful bride!? Think about the heat. . .she looks so cool and elegant!
Anna made these wonderful fans for her wedding guests. On the opposite side all of the wedding particulars were listed. . .Cool, eh?
The handsome groom. . .waiting in the dugout. . .in the heat. . .with his tux on. . .
Here is the groom with his groomsmen. . .
This was the view from the ladies’ dugout. . .while each of the attendants walked out onto the field, their “stats” went up on the screen!!
A couple more pics before the wedding began. . .
Anna and her dad as they began their journey to walk down the aisle. . .
The view from the “guest” seats. . .quite amazing, isn’t it?!
Aren’t they cute?!!?!?
WOO HOO!!! They’re married!!!!
A posed shot in front of the Arch.
Love the sun-flare in this shot! :)
Anna and Dan got married on the August 8th. . .I thought it appropriate to work the number 8 into their wedding pics.
The reception was amazing! The staff at the ballpark went out of their way to make sure everyone was happy, and every detail was attended to. . .and they did it all with a smile. Anna and Dan has ballpark food served for their guests, including nachos and cheese, and brats. . .followed up with some yummy cheesecake! Take a look at their beautiful cake. . . 
Serenading the bride. . .
Anna and Dan were so loving towards each other the entire evening. . .you could feel the love they share radiating through the room. It was so much fun to work with them and photograph their amazing wedding!!!
