We had the great honor of shooting Prem and Shahzeen’s engagement party. We spent a wonderful evening with this fabulous couple. Shahzeen is adorable and so sweet. Prem was just amazing… the words “calm cool & collected” just barely scratch the surface. They are a perfect match! What a beautiful wedding this will be.
Shahzeen & Prem, we were honored that you gave us the privilege of shooting your event. Dan and I wish you a lifetime of happiness.
What a day… Chris & Mandy were married at the beautiful Hermann Hill Chapel. I must say that’s quickly becoming one of our favorite venues. Not to mention Hermann is an amazing place. I get inspired just thinking of it! It’s got such a great country rustic feel that perfectly suited these two. They are a great couple and Chris is super playful and full of energy. Mandy is completely laid back and so sweet. They are a wonderful compliment for each other.
Mandy’s parents live on a hay farm! Due to the horrible afternoon weather, we weren’t able to really utilize it without creating an impromptu “Trash the Dress” session! But we were still able to capture this wonderful shot of the two amazing people!
Mandy & Chris, we wish you both a life time of happiness. It was a pleasure to shoot your wedding and we are honored that you choose us to be your photographers.
We had a great time shooting with Mike & Emily. They are really great together and Dan and I are looking very forward to shooting this wedding! Stay tuned for more great shots from this great couple.
Ok. A quick admission of guilt. This is an example of what happens when you forget to hit the “Publish” button in Wordpress. Your blog entry sits there where nobody can see it. Since we write the blog, we don’t usually have a need to read it so we didn’t realize that you couldn’t see it!
Oops!
Nevertheless, we present you Jameson and Paige (recently) married! Since they live in Virginia, we never had the opportunity to spend much time with them before the wedding which is a shame since the are both so much fun to be around. Everyone in the wedding party were great sports. They put up with blinding sun, cold weather, and having to rush to get everything done… all with giant smiles on their faces!
We want to thank Jameson and Paige for letting us take part in their special day!
This weekend, Crystal and I volunteered to participate in “Motion for Kids”. It’s a program for children who have been impacted by the legal system. We spent the afternoon at the Edward Jones Dome taking pictures of the kids with Santa. It was so cool seeing the genuinely huge smiles on this kids faces when then saw Santa!
When one of the little boys Crystal was shooting replied to Santa after being asked what he wanted for Christmas, he replied… “a Nintendo DS and my family”. Crystal’s heart nearly broke in half.
Over 2500 children and their families attended the event and included sponsors like St. Louis Rams, St. Louis Bar Foundation, and St. Louis Bar Association, Catholic Charities, Foster and Adoptive Care Coalition, First Book, Grace Hill-PATCH, and Midwest Litigation Services.
There was so much for the kids to do including a book corner, and inflatable rock climbing wall, St. Louis Rams cheerleaders, music, and even getting to play catch on the field with some of the Rams players and awesome presents!
After we finished shooting all the kids, we packed up all the gear, we took a stroll around the football field before heading out. All I can say is WOW! The field looks a LOT smaller on TV!
We can’t wait to do it again next year.
