I have a confession to make: I was a terrible blogger in 2015. Like, really terrible. Like, of the 20 weddings we did last year, I only blogged one, terrible. Yep. Yikes.   I’m determined to be a better blogger (and all around social media-er) this year. And that means that in addition to sharing our […]

    We met for the first time at a local coffee shop. Mandy was running a few minutes late, so I texted her and asked if she wanted me to order anything for her before she arrived. “Tea, any kind! You choose!” she said. Looking back, her response was a little glimpse into her […]

    It’s been a little over 7 years since our paths first crossed. A little over 7 years since that tall, blonde (he had a little bit of hair then!), slightly nerdy, jazz musician + audio engineer first started crushin’ on that kind of shy, also blonde, fairly quirky, worship leader girl. It’s been […]

   There’s a rumor going around that January is less than ideal for portraits in St. Louis. While this may be true here and there, this sweet couple’s session is far from it! In fact, we were given a gorgeous day for Nick + Emily’s engagement session at the Missouri History Museum. The Missouri History […]

And yet, here they are, an incredible and incredibly adorable duo! Their Lafayette Park engagement session was a blast! I love how laid back, relatable, and hilarious they are. I’m […]

      I love mommy and me sessions. Maybe because I’m a mama and it makes me all mushy and gushy thinking about my own sweet girls and how they’re growing way too fast for my heart to handle! Regardless, Jack and his mama, Jamie, were such a sweet pair to capture. Jack is a busy […]

   A few weeks ago, I handed off the album from the first wedding of our 2015 season, and I have to admit, it was a little bittersweet. I always joke with my clients that they better really like us when they book because they’ll be stuck with us for awhile. Chances are, your wedding photographer […]

     There are few things more precious than welcoming a new life into your world. As a mama to two toddlers, I am well-versed in the sleepless nights, the baby-puke-stained clothing worn for the 3rd day in a row, and the never ending piles of dirty diapers and laundry that accompany that tiny little […]

     There’s not much that makes me love my job as a St. Louis photographer more than gorgeous couples, growing families, and golden sunlight…and this session has all of the above! Sarah + Charles are a stunning and incredibly sweet couple who are expecting their first baby boy in just a few weeks! After […]
