Come stay a while
Wedding stories, engagement sessions, inspiration, little moments, and me inevitably getting sentimental about something.
English Landing Park Engagement, Parkville | Britta + Patrick
It was Britta's graduation day, and Patrick wanted to take some photos....."Let's take some silly ones!"....Britta cringed....."Why don't we pretend like I'm proposing..." to which Britta scoffed and said "No, not unless you're doing it for real" - and that's when things got serious.
Iconic Kansas City areas Engagement Session | Emily + Jon
Emily & Jon had been together for a few years when January of 2016 rolled around. That was going to be a special month...Emily just didn't realize it yet. What Emily didn't know quite yet was that Jon had been doing some shopping...and he had picked out the most gorgeous ring, all for her.
West Bottoms, Kansas City Engagement | Makayla + Curtis
They go way back, like way way back. All the way, in fact, to elementary school.
A Sunny Engagement Session in Kansas | Jessica + Jeff
Jensen Beach was the perfect place to round out their sunny Florida vacation, and it was on that beach that Jeff surprised the heckkkkk out of Jessica...with a gorgeous engagement ring.
Nelson Atkins Engagement Session, Kansas City | Ashlie + Michael
"Oh shoot, who is this..." were the words Michael first said to himself when he saw Ashlie walk in the room.
Kansas Engagement Photographer >> Shelley + Travis
Shelley and Travis met on Match.com many years ago, and when they finally met in person, they totally hit it off - but, the timing just wasn't right. They went on their own ways, and then suddenly and randomly ran into one another a few years later -- and then, then my friends, the timing was oh so right.
Kansas City Engagement Photographer >> Barbra + Robbie
Two animal lovers brought together by a mutual friend really, really hit it off.
Kearney, MO Engagement Photography >> Megan + Shawn
Megan had dubbed Shawn the "creepy barefoot kid" long before they really knew one another...
Weston, MO Engagement Photography >> Amanda + Ryan
These two giggled their way through their engagement session doing what they do best, just being together and loving one another.

These two high school, or rather, - middle school sweethearts really, have a gorgeous wedding planned for this September - and after spending an evening with them for their engagement session, I know without a doubt, that wedding day is going to be full of so much JOY, and so much LOVE.

A Kauffman Performing Arts Center + KC Skyline Engagement Session | Kristy & Travis
Kristy & Travis "met" online, and after several weeks of chatting they finally decided to meet in person at what would become, another fateful Starbucks location, for them, it was the Starbucks on the Plaza. Mocha's, pumpkin spice lattes and endless conversation, - it was truly the start of something big.
