The May Family

You might recognize the May sisters from their photoshoot earlier this year with their dance studio. I just did a photo session with the entire May family...but this time they did not bring their tu-tus. Instead, we did a family session in the park.

The May family had never taken professional family pictures before, so I was honored to be the first photographer to take their pictures. We had a great time! Their sweet girls were such a delight to work with and Renee and Chris were just so easy going. Check out my favorite pictures from this session!!

Could these girls be any cuter??? Seriously! They are both just too precious!

Big hugs!

I love this photo...Renee is tickling the girls...they are obviously enjoying their time! LOL.

Beautiful Baby Blaise!

Amanda was a friend of mine from high school. I was so excited to do this photoshoot for her because it is always soooo nice catching up with WCA friends. Plus, she has a sweet baby boy. Her son, Blaise, and her husband, David, and I went on a nice long session in Tower Grove Park and at their house. I had soooo many adorable images of this family. I can only show a few here, so enjoy them!

*Favorite picture of the session!*

Awe, a sleeping baby...I love this one, especially his lips!

David playing with Blaise on the run...look at Blaise's little hand on David's forehead.

David said that he really would like some pictures of him holding Blaise while he was crying. I am to please...WINK!

National Campaign

I was asked by owner of The Professional Dance Center (GSPDC) to take campaign pictures for two different dances performed at their recital. GSPDC is campaigning with others around the nation for a football and dancer partnership. This partnership will enlighted people as to what dance truly is; a sport. This will be done with the help of commercials and performances. You might have already heard about this national campaign on NPR. This is a great opportunity for all of these girls if they are selected for the campaign. Here are the two pieces that I shot as Director of Photography for their two campaign pictures.

Wesley and Holly's Destination Wedding.

What could be better that being in The Keys for three days? Well, being in The Keys for three days while your best friend for high school gets married. Holly and Wesley got married in August on the beach and are now husband and wife. Tony and I had a blast capturing their wedding day. They were just a perfect couple...they are sooo in love and are very photogenic. Enjoy these photos! (Don't forget, facebook has MANY more photos...still under Kristen M Photography.)

This was the first thing I woke up to on their wedding day. I felt like I was looking at a post card!

Holly's jewelry was beautiful!

You know you are going to like this group of guys when you see all three seasons of The Office...I need not say more! WINK!
By far my favorite guys getting ready shot.

The men praying before the ceremony.

Holly as she walks down to meet her soon-to-be husband.

Holly's dad as Wesley said his own vows to Holly.

I really like this picture especially because of the guys. I just love how they are looking at me and just laughing.

And then, the girls and guys jumped in the pool in their wedding attire. What a way to end the evening!

Wesley and Holly's Rehersal Dinner

Tony and I just made it into The Keys just in time to cover the rehersal dinner for Wesley and Holly. It was such a nice time! It was outdoors and we had beautiful weather.

Look at them...so in love. And the sky looks perfect, too.

While I was on the bridge taking pictures of Holly and Wesley, my amazing assistant, Tony, was grabbing pictures like this!

Tony took this picture...I love how you can only really see her eyes in the sunlight.

Favorite: This is such an intimate picture. I was just peeking through, getting them in conversation!

And then, there was dancing!!!

Jessie and Bobby's Model Session

Tony met with Jessie and Bobby downtown to do two model sessions in one: e-mo and a more glamous session. These two models worked great together and had so many amazing pictures. Here are a few of my favorites. Special thanks to Katie Mueller of Xenon for masterfully doing hair and makeup. (Don't forget to check out the facebook page, too.)

I love the focus on the arch in the background. The subjects are darker to bring in emotion. I really like this one!
