Ashley + Gerren {Engagement Session}

I met Ashley a couple years ago through my sister - I'd heard so much about "G" but hadn't met him. All I knew was that Ashley moved to Indiana for him so he must be a great guy :) I was so thrilled to finally meet him and photograph these two here in St. Louis. They truly are hilarious and so much fun, you can tell they are just perfect for each other. We had planned on going to the spot where G proposed to Ashley and then heading downtown to Busch Stadium, but due to unforeseen circumstances we didn't make it to either of those locations. We ended up at Forest Park, and then headed down to the Grand/Washington area and Ashley and G just rolled with the punches. We had a great time and I am extremely excited about photographing their wedding next year!

Here are some of my favorites from our session:

Katy + Ryan {Engagement Session}

Katy, Ryan and I met up on a VERY COLD winter day. I had talked to Katy through email about the wedding, but we had never met in person. I was extremely delighted to find that these two are such a fun couple! Despite the frigid temps (I think it was around 17 degrees that day) we had a blast and they were such good sports!

We started out at the Jewel Box in Forest Park...

Then headed outdoors into the freezing cold! It was well worth it - I love these shots with the blanket!

We stopped at Kayak Coffee to warm up and get a hot drink (p.s. totally envious of Katy's amazing scarf).

Our last destination was the Moonrise Hotel, where they let us sneak some shots in the lobby. I adore the ones in front of the moon prints!

The head chef Wes was kind enough to take us up to the roof...such a nice guy!

Thanks for looking!

Nicole + Andy {Engagement Session}

I love fall. So so much. I'm pretty obsessed with the colors in these photos. And Nicole and Andy are so much fun and SO photogenic. I was having so much fun photographing these two that I lost track of time (and probably made Andy late for work :-/). I'm thrilled to be photographing their wedding next summer!

Thanks for looking!
