Julia & Jason | Love & Marriage

Whew! It’s been a while since I have blogged. I promise we have not been slacking. In face, we were processing pics well into the holidays! AND, we had seven photo shoots in December, including one in Kansas. Needless to say, it was cold in the ‘Sunflower State’, but OH SO MUCH FUN!

Matt and I are excited to share Julia and Jason’s wedding photos. :) First of all, Julia has style! Her hair, her dress, well, actually, everything was beautiful, simply beautiful! And we loved watching the couple interact with each other…they were so precious to each other throughout the day.

Before I post the pics, here’s a bit of background info on the wedding: Poor Julia emailed us couple of weeks before the wedding to let us know that Jason had broken his leg, and would have to be in a cast during the wedding. What was really amazing was the fact that she wasn’t worried about the photos, or trying to hide the cast…she just wanted to make sure that Jason had plenty of time to rest between photos. That, and she gave us permission to be bossy with the wedding party so that we could get photos done as quickly as possible! Julia is one amazing woman!

Wedding Details:

• Date: October 10, 2009
• Wedding Location: Eden Chapel, Webster Groves, MO
• Interim & Reception Photos: Tapawingo National Golf Club, Sunset Hills

Now onto the photos!

The bride patiently waiting for me to take photos of her beautiful dress.

Finally getting to put on her dress! :)

Julia and Jason decided to see each other before their ceremony, which turned out to be a marvelous idea – especially since the groom was wearing a cast due to a broken bone in his leg!

Here is the bride on her way down to see her groom for the first time. . .

Julia pretty much got to see Jason’s back for the first few minutes. . .and then slowly walked up behind him.

We tried to give them a little privacy. . .

The beautiful flowers. . .

The rings. . .

Back in the room the ladies huddled one more time before Julia’s last steps as a single woman.

I stole a couple more seconds of the bride’s time to get these gorgeous portraits. Isn’t Julia BEAUTIFUL?!

Waiting for her cue. . .

I LOVE how incredibly happy BOTH Julia and her father look!

The beautiful chapel… At the end of the ceremony, Julia and Jason walked down the aisle to the music of a bag pipe! How cool is THAT?!? I mean REALLY! :)

After the ceremony, we headed over to the Tapawingo National Golf Club in Sunset Hills. The setting was amazing! Here are the gorgeous gals…

Ok, tell me this isn’t hilarious…Julia was using Jason’s crutches to TWIRL!! :)

As you can tell…Julia and Jason have NO IDEA how to have a fun time! Julia was ready for some cake. . .no serving utensils needed!

One last photo of the happy couple!

Julia and Jason ~ thank you both for allowing us to take part in your amazing day! Every detail was perfectly planned, and we feel honored that you allowed us to capture your wedding day memories. Congratulations, and we wish you the best of everything in the future!

Julia & Jason. . .and a bit of texture!

I got some new toys to play with to make our photos really, really cool!  Some new TEXTURES!!  These will add flair, grunge, and excitement to our photos.  Woo Hoo!  It just so happens that Jason and Julia are the lucky ones I get to experiment with.  Lucky them!   :) Actually, Jason and Julia’s photos are still in the “processing” stage, but I snagged a few to test my new textures on. . .

So, for your viewing pleasure, the happy couple’s wedding rings. . .admit it - you love the texture!!  If you don’t, no need to worry. . .the couple gets a “plain” copy of the pic too!

Here’s the awesome couple.  Are they not just totally precious!?  I LOVED how long Julia’s train was. . .

Ok, that’s all for now. . .I want to save a “few” surprises for later. . .after I have a chance to look through all of their photos!
