Our wedding season may have started in July but we have had a full month of five beautiful weddings. We ended July 2020 with Kenzie and Jake’s wedding and it was a great way to end the month of July. This amazing couple was like many and had to postpone their wedding by a few […]

Engagement

There is no hiding that business this year has been hard. Bookings were down, weddings are postponed, and engagement sessions had to be pushed several times to accommodate new mandates. Running a business is harder than ever but I have to say I have the most understanding, loyal, and loving couples. As I have had […]

Engagement

An open letter to my baby sister before she gets married… I remember all the things we did, like riding bikes way past dark, staying up late on Christmas Eve giggling, and running in the sprinkler during the hot summer nights.

Traveling to another state during a pandemic with a baby was by far the most chaotic adventure I have ever taken. To all the parents out there who have or do still travel with a baby or child you already know what struggle I am talking about. You have to pack 3x more items. You […]

Styled Shoots

Last summer I spent 2 months planning, styling, and shooting 11 styled shoots for Kansas Wedding Magazine. The editor from KWM came up with a brilliant idea and wanted me to help her execute A decades shoot from 1920-2020. When planning each and every shoot I had to think of how to make each one […]

This beautiful elopement was the first wedding of my 2020 season from having Lorelai back in December 2019.

Fall weddings will always have a special place in my heart. The air is crisp, but the sun kisses your skin. The clouds are always big and fluffy. Ali and Ross had a gorgeous wedding at Mission Theater in downtown Shawnee, Kansas. Just 20 minutes south of downtown Kansas, City. Ali and her girls got […]

You love to take them to the park, car rides, and pretty much anywhere that allows dogs. They are part of your everyday happiness. You should […]
