Someday soon I’ll relay the true story of the SilverBox Tree.It’s thanks to that tree that I was lucky enough to meet CARRIE & BILL [thru Amy & Joe via the Anna & Jim branch].OK, but that part, the “the-house-that-Jack-built-part” well, will save the narrative for later. The HERE & NOW is [drumroll, please] look,…

Kim & I both LOVE documenting weddings. At the core I think we so love it because what we DELIGHT IN is documenting LIFE. For each of us [though we hadn't yet met] such joy became apparent when we became well, PARENTS. It’s that fierce attempt to reach out & grab & commit to memory…

Each time I photograph a wedding, I discover yet another reason why I love this fast-paced, unpredictable, emotionally-rich work of wedding photojournalism. Reason #78 (or thereabouts…) from Lori & BJ’s wedding: getting to see and document the ways in which couples honor their loved ones. Before putting on her own dress, Lori wore her grandmother’s…

What a treat to photograph Kimberly & Geoffrey’s wedding! Being a Missouri girl through and through, I loved their choices of locations to give their guests a true Missouri experience: – Friday’s Welcome Dinner at Kimberly’s folks’ home with a taste of several mid-Missouri goodies (Show Me barbecue sauce, Shake’s frozen custard…)- a ceremony at…

SPECIAL NOTE on this one, though: sure can’t think of a more lovely place than…

Just finished the album from Kim & Andy’s March 18 wedding here in Columbia, Missouri. Kim, you have my utmost admiration; you are as tough as you are beautiful!

Jennie - OK, so I had to create a blogger id so that I could write a comment. Amy and Kim, I LOVE looking at these slideshows. I caught yesterday’s entry about your daughter, Amy, and it made me smile and tear up at the same time. You two have that gift…to touch individuals so deeply with your artistry. You made my week–just being able to sneak a peek into these other incredible moments makes things seem bright when they might otherwise be a bit dull at work.
Enough of my break…however, congrats…and keep these coming!
