Ten years ago, I sat across a tiny fast food table and introduced myself to a sweet blonde girl, Kelly, who would go on to become an incredible friend, a sister even, to Smitty and me. Kelly has been such a major part of our life for the past decade – from best friend to […]

When we got married almost 9 years ago, Smitty and I planned our wedding (pre-Pinterest, thank you!) and paid for most of it on our own. We were young and poor, but crazy in love. There was nothing fancy about it, but it was ridiculously fun and it was ours, and that was enough. If […]

The first time I “met” Brook, we were halfway across the country from each other, she was in her classroom in Arizona and I was in my studio in St. Peters. We bonded over faith and tiny humans (Brook was MADE for teaching, y’all), and the importance of investing in professional photography that will become […]

I met Lexi in a coffee shop in Midtown. She lit up the room from the moment she walked in, but the second she started talking about Andrew, she simply beamed. “He’s deployed in Afghanistan right now, but I so wish you could meet him! He’s just the best person in the whole world!” Y’all, […]

You can’t help but smile when you’re around Allison + Matt. They’ve got those witty, down to earth personalities that fit right in with our own bit of sarcastic banter and love for authentic relationships. After spending their entire April engagement session chatting and laughing together, I knew their wedding day was going to be […]

When I think of a couple that genuinely loves being together, I think of these two. Rob + Maggie are some of the sweetest, most genuine souls that you’ll ever meet and we had so much fun at their engagement session earlier this Spring.

I knew from the moment I met Carlo + Whitley that we wanted to be a part of their day. Not because it was going to be at incredible location and full of gorgeous details (although it most certainly was!), but because they’re the type of couples that we want to surround ourselves with. They’re […]

It was a perfect St. Louis day. The rain from the week leading up to it has dissipated and we were left with gorgeous blue skies and mild Spring weather. The best way to start the first wedding of our 2017 season! We arrived at Salon St. Louis to find a very calm Kathryn surrounded […]
