Where would you naturally go to photograph two lovebird law students? Why, the Old Courthouse of course! A bit of warmth before heading out into the snowy downtown landscape. The cold just makes for extra snuggly goodness and they didn't mind the frigid temps, they live in Michigan! See you guys in May for, hopefully, MUCH warmer wedding bliss. :)

I have a certain dedication to my clients. Stevie clients get the gold standard, its just how I roll. What blows me away every time is when my clients show a dedication to getting the greatest pictures possible. Such is the case with Jessica and Tim. We had scheduled their engagements on a Sunday afternoon. It just so happens that the Saturday before that Sunday was GORGEOUS and I had the afternoon off. The Sunday forecast? not so much. I just HAD to take a chance and call to see if they maybemightpossibly have the same free afternoon to do their pictures that day, and my oh-so-dedicated couple chose little ol' me over heading to Columbia to hang with friends before a Mizzou game. Woa. So instead of a soggy day and possible postponement, we got a beautiful, sunny, warm day and the fabulosity to follow.

J+T WIN!

Oh, they were ready for this. Jenny and Greg came to their engagment session full on READY to make the magic happen. And happen it did, my friends, because when my clients are this flippin' fun to be around, you can't help but be mystified. We had an awesome time lurking around the Arch grounds and in the many alleyways of the Landing seeking out great light, a textured element or just somewhere to snuggle. Get it! ♥

Sometimes things work out for the best. The first time I scheduled Beth and Scott's engagement session, it stormed like crazy! We had our heart set on going downtown so 'under cover' photos just weren't in the cards. Lucky for us! The alternative turned out to be one of the nicest evenings downtown I've had in a while. Gorgeous light, good temps and a snuggy and cute couple to photograph. What more could you ask for? oh ya.. the pictures. :) 



See you in August, my darlings! Can't wait!

Happy Memorial Day!! Don't forget to thank a service person today for their support and service to our great country and remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice so we can live free. :)

A treat for this Monday holiday - Engagement photos of Cindy and Kris! We met up last weekend when the weather was just perfect for some outdoor photos and running around Forest Park. Cindy is a sci-fi girl, like myself, and we were going on about the great new Star Trek movie out now! The young Capt. Kirk is way hot. :) Poor Kris was a good sport about it and we got some great shots. Thanks for hanging out with me, guys! Can't wait for your wedding in September!
