Daylen and Nadine : Married

Usually when friends ask me to photograph their wedding, I politely turn them down.  However, when my friends Daylen and Nadine came to me to shoot their wedding in the beautiful state of Wyoming, not to mention in December, I had to do it.  And I’m glad I did because it was a blast!  In fact, I actually felt like I was in a movie part of the time.  Friday night after the rehearsal was all said and done, the crowd headed back to Nadine’s parents house to share some food and fun.  People were playing music and singing along by the fire in a log cabin-type house with snow on the ground outside.  I mean, just looking at the scene made me feel like I was watching a movie.  On Saturday, after the ceremony was finished, Daylen and Nadine rushed out of the church to a horse drawn sleigh.  How much more cinematic can it get?  Well, at least a little more because we ice skated on Sunday morning with the Grand Tetons in the background.  It was pretty amazing to say the least.  Thank you Daylen, Nadine, and Nadine’s family for making the trip possible.  More importantly, congrats to Daylen and Nadine!  Enjoy.

Pat and Lora: Married

Lora and I used to camp out in the newsroom at UCM on wednesdays as the weekly issue of the Muleskinner was jumbled together.  And occasionally we’d all end up going out afterwards to celebrate our latest victory, usually somewhere on Pine St.  Molly (red hair, black glasses) was also part of our crew at the newspaper so it was good catching up with them last weekend!  Anyway, enjoy.

Here’s a few photos from a senior shoot the other day.  Enjoy!

Loos Family 2

The Loos family is back again, check them out!

Nick and Kaitlyn: Married

I met Kaitlyn in college at UCM.  She was a bartender at a place called Heroes in Warrensburg and when she served us the “Unknown” drink it always seemed to be a little bit stronger!  Anyway, she asked me to photograph her wedding and it was awesome!  Her and Nick were so great to work with and the location they chose made it easy on me to get great shots of them.  Enjoy!

Oh yeah, and there was a photo booth, too.

Photobooth time!

Dave and Suzanne Married

I grew up living on a cul-de-sac with many neighborhood kids, so you can imagine the fun we had playing in the street.  Suzanne and her family moved in when I was in my later grade school days and her kids were quite a bit younger, in fact my brother and I were the oldest kids in the cul-de-sac.  Despite the age difference we all played games, rode bikes, rollerbladed (which then turned into skateboarding), and all the usual fun childhood things.  The cul-de-sac families have always been pretty close, and even though my parents moved away they still to this day remain good friends.  When Suzanne got engaged to be re-married she called me up and asked if I’d shoot the wedding, which was at 1617 event space, right above Nara.  So here’s a little preview of what’s to come for Suzanne and Dave.  Enjoy!

 

Brad and Cailyn

Here’s a few shots I did a while back with Brad and Cailyn, some good friends from the Burg.  They both (especially Brad) have expressed how disappointed  they were with their wedding photos and so we scheduled a little shoot to give them something to write home, or uh, email about.  Enjoy!

Loos Family

Thought I’d share a few quick shots from a family shoot the other day.  I got a chance to go back to the ol’ Burg (Warrensburg) to shoot some family photos, and with that see some friends while in town.  I haven’t had much time to edit lately, but here’s a few to hold the Loos family over until I’m done.  Enjoy!

Dustin and Meagan : Married

You may remember Dustin and Meagan from a couple months ago when I posted their engagement photos.  Well guess what?  Now they’re married and I have a little preview from their day.  Although it was a little rainy, the bad weather held off for the most part.  Luckily we did have umbrellas on hand just in case but as you can see below we used it more for fun than anything!  They’re reception was at Studio B which ended up being a pretty cool location that I had not shot yet.  Enjoy!

Jared and Mallory: Engaged

My wife has been friends with Mallory since junior high and I’ve known her since high school as we used to all hang out.  Jared and Mallory met at the Great Wolf Lodge here in KC, you know that sweet hotel out by the legends with the water slides coming out the side?  So naturally we ended up there for the beginning of our shoot and it was hilarious to say the least.  It was a super windy day that didn’t want to agree with Mallory’s hair, but all in all it turned out to be awesome!  Enjoy.
