It’s a small world. Camille was looking for a photographer for their wedding in September and found me. They had resigned themselves to not having engagement portraits before their wedding, as they’re in South Korea, but lo and behold, we’re here at the same time.  Ashley and I were able to sit and talk with them for a while and hear their story and about their time in Korea.  They have an exciting future ahead of them and we wish them all the best.  It was a pleasure to shoot with them on what seemed like one of the few dry days in Korea in a couple of months. Here are a few of my favorites:

Kellen & Jessica- Engaged

November 21, 2010

I had the chance to shoot with Kellen and Jessica on a beautiful Sunday afternoon in Kansas City.  The light was absolutely gorgeous and Kellen & Jessica were comfortable, excited and eager to shoot, and very much in love.  All of those things make a wonderful combination.  :)  We got to explore a couple of different spots downtown before we lost the light, and I think we all had a great time.  I’m excited about all of their images, but here are a few of my favorites:
