Sunday was a gorgeous day! Kim and Dave made it even better. We met up with them at Busch Stadium and spent the morning before the game snapping some pictures around the town. Dave and Kim were naturals; they just let loose and had fun with the session so it was so easy to capture some great shots of them.
Last night, Crystal and I had a blast with John and Carol Hurst at the Olde Town Spice Shoppe in Old Town St. Charles. John asked for some help in getting photographs of their products for the new website they are building so we said we’d give him a hand. They have a huge array of spices and teas and want to offer them online to their customers. 
They have such a awesome little shop that’s stuffed to the rafters with aromatic goodness. Crystal, being a tea lover, thought she died and went to heaven! John and Carol are so much fun and they really know their stuff and have the incredible selection of products to prove it. 
Be sure to check them out. The website is www.oldtownspices.com or you can email them at spices@oldtownspices.com. If you’re in Old Town St. Charles some weekend, make sure you drop in and say hi. Their open Mon-Sat 10:30 to 4:30 and Sunday noon to 4:30. 
Just a reminder to brides that it’s time to start scheduling your engagement session. The summer schedule fills up quickly and you don’t want to be scrambling at the last minute trying to squeeze it in.
For those brides who have been on the fence about booking your photographer, use an engagement session to get to know them and see if they are a good fit with you. It’s a much cheaper alternative than diving head-long into a wedding photography contract, and should get you some great pics with your fiance to boot!
If you’re not happy with your photographer after that, then you aren’t tied to an expensive package and can continue shopping. But you will need to start doing it now before it’s too late!
