Emilie + Wes

Poor Emilie had to reschedule her and Wes' engagement session about half a dozen times, all due to rain. Each time we'd set a date we'd get another storm rolling through! Finally though we set a date and we lucked out with a sunny and warm day. Good thing too - Emilie had waited long enough :) We met at Square One Brewery for a few beers and some relax time on the patio [my favorite way to start a shoot, by the way].

. . . I need to get a concrete lion for my front steps. . . .that would be waaay coool.

favorite!!!

I love the roses peeking through - so springy :)

awwww - they're so cute and happy :)

Thanks guys! Can't wait until your August wedding!!

Ashley + TJ

Ashley and TJ were married on a beautiful sunny and mild day in May, and had the quintessential spring wedding in St. Louis - it was more beautiful than I can describe. So, instead of trying, I'm going to show you A TON of my favorite photos from their day. Enjoy!

I have a weakness for dahlias :)

her hair and makeup were flawless, highlighting Ashley's natural stunning beauty

I loved their reaction when they saw her - it's so sweet!

the ceremony took place at the Lafayette Park United Methodist - one of my favorites!

[they're very photogenic - I couldn't stop myself]

I love those favors! [sorry Ashley, I took 8 home. I like them a lot]

Ashley's a designer, so there were lots of wonderful details, making the reception very comfortable and inviting. I want to live there :)

The End! Congratulations you guys!

Blythe + Braelynn
