Chris & Alyson's Wedding

Chris & Alyson were a laid-back couple. Things started a little late but they went with the flow and had fun. They took us to a wonderful park in Mission, KS and we got some great fall shots. The reception was at the Mission Theater which was beautiful but surprisingly hard to photograph (light was challenging). They had a fun movie theme that really fit the space. Enjoy.

Ben & Nicole

I had quite an experience with Ben & Nicole. As most of you know we never book a couple with out meeting with them first. We made the exception for Nicole though. She is a very busy medical professional and didn't have time to meet with photographers in person, she was also highly recommended by Moly Shalz (a great coordinator here in town). So I was pretty nervous to work and meet them for the first time. To make matters worse they got a speeding ticket and got a little lost on the way to the shoot. Not surprising that it didn't put Ben in the best of moods. I also think that Ben may be the only other person that hates having his picture taken as much as I do.

Even with everything stacked against them we had lots of fun. They both loosened up pretty quick and were up for just about anything, including a pretty heated leaf fight! I'm really happy with the results and glad that we made the exception for them, it will be a great wedding.

Nathan & Kim's Wedding

Okay, so I know we really like to brag about how lucky we are to get wonderful couples but I really have to gush about these guys. We could tell pretty early on that this was going to be a special event. I was lucky to be able to shoot their engagement session first and if you've been watching our posts then you already know that it turned out great and was featured on collages.net a few weeks ago.

For the wedding we drove up to St. Joseph, MO. I've been in KC my whole life and somehow missed going up there and I have to say that the downtown area is very charming. They chose a great church with tons of character. The whole family was just so welcoming to us, the wedding party was tons of fun, Kim was beautiful, and Nathan & Kim were glowing.

I'm just glad we were able to be a part of the day and give them a nice portfolio, I could have posted 3 times more photos but you'll get the idea, the slideshow has plenty more to see. We can't wait to do Kim's trash the dress session in the spring!

Aaron & Gretchen's Wedding

We got to shoot Aaron & Gretchen's wedding back on Oct. 21st in Lawrence (I know it took me a while to get this post up). They were just an incredibly laid back, easy going couple. We couldn't have asked for an easier couple to work with. I even put my first slideshow at the end. Enjoy!
