Lauren & Todd's Crossroads Wedding

Jered grew up with Lauren as she was the sister of one of his best friends. When she became engaged, the first thing she said was, I want Jered to photograph my wedding. So we arrived at Studio 2131 in the Crossroads for their urban wedding. It was a delight! Not just to see old friends again but to be able to capture Lauren & Todd's unique personalities through their choice of venue & photo locations. It was sure hot, but the wedding party were troopers as we canvased the neighborhood in search of some "fine graffiti". Here's some images we captured that day:

Jaimee & Nick's River Market Engagement Evening

Where do you go for engagement photos when it's 90+ degrees outside? That was Jaimee's question to us when she mentioned that her and Nick wanted their engagement photos done this month. Why, the answer is simple! Union Station of course! Well, that's one of our favorite places anyway. So we met at Union Station with this delightful couple and from there we traversed down to the Rivermarket area (another one of our favorite places in the city!) It was certainly hot, but Jaimee has such an infectious smile & Nick was one of the most attentive fiances we've seen thus far so end the end, we got some fabulous images!

Brittany & Cody: The wedding

Brittany & Cody were married on a hot day at the KC Police Academy. They were a delightful couple we had the honor of photographing and filming for their engagement. When we arrived, Brittany looked at Barb and said, "have you seen our video?" She hadn't seen the video that Jered had put together for the couple, but we must say it was quite the distraction while she was trying to take the group photos! "It's hilarious!" Brittany gushed. This no-frills couple was laid back and all about enjoying the day instead of worrying over lots and lots of posed photographs. So we pulled out our photojournalism background and began the hunt for some memorable candids. Here's just a sample of what we captured.

Our Engagement Story Winners! Candis & Jared

Candis & Jared are a couple of high school sweethearts who are now getting married! Their sweet story won us over during our Engagement Story Contest last spring and they won a free engagement session. We met the couple at Kauffman Gardens for their engagement Photo/Video session a couple weeks ago and they are such a cute couple, we couldn't help but smile the whole time. Candis has such a great and easy laugh and the love and devotion this couple still shares after growing through high school & college together is apparent and beautiful to see. We can't wait till their wedding in the fall!
