Tim & Liz McElroy - A little peek into their beautiful wedding day - Hays, KS Wedding
What a fun couple Tim and Liz are, I found this out when I first did their engagement photos last year using the Budweiser truck in the photos that Tim drives for work. With that alone I knew their wedding was going to be a fun one to photograph. The couple was wed at the United Methodist Church in Hays, KS. I had a great time hanging with the bride and her girls in the morning while they got ready in the recently remodeled and beautiful brides room at the church. Liz's mom even did her makeup which I thought made it even more special (see photo below). The couple had a beautiful ceremony, it was so wonderful to see all the cute looks and smiles they gave each other throughout the day, they are surely IN LOVE! Here are a few photos giving you a little glimpse into their special day.
Congrats Tim and Liz!
Robert & Valerie Yates - A wedding sneak peek - Hays, KS Wedding Photography
Another beautiful day this past weekend for a wedding. I traveled up to Hays, Kansas to photograph the union of Robert and Valerie. It was so wonderful to be a part of a day in which two people are so in love. It was especially incredible to see how their family merged together with Valerie's daughter Camryn to become a family of 3 as they even included her in the ceremony, not only as the flower girl but during the sand ceremony. Valerie started her day getting her hair and makeup done at Salon Diva (incredible staff did a wonderful job on all the ladies). The ceremony was held at the United methodist church in Hays, followed by a reception at the VFW. The had some beautiful uplighting they added which really lends to a beautiful backdrop to their photos. Here is a little sneak peek from their day!
Oh and I can't forget to mention they also chose to have our photo booth at their reception. The guests had a great time getting their snap shots with props and everything, and I'm sure Robert and Valerie will have laughs for many years with the scrap book that was created with the photos. Here is one I caught when a few of them were having fun in the booth!
Matthew & Ashley's Wedding sneak peek - Great Bend, Wedding Photography
After all the rain we've had lately, it was so nice to have such a beautiful day this past Saturday to celebrate the wedding of Matthew and Ashley Moeder. Their wedding took place in Olmitz, KS in a beautiful church in which many of their family members have also been wed. Then they were off to the Great Bend Convention center where the celebrated their marriage with a wonderful reception. They even chose to have the Photo Booth which was a big hit! Matt and Ashley also chose one of the best DJ's I've ever worked with, DJ Cain, out of Salina Kansas who kept the party rockin! Here is a little sneak peek from their wedding. I want to thank you again Matt and Ashley for chosing me to photograph your wedding.
Kansas City Perfect Wedding Guide Bridal Show 2015
This past weekend I was fortunate to have a booth at the Kansas City Bridal Show sponsored by Perfect Wedding Guide, in Overland Park Kansas. It was held at the Overland Park Convention center which is HUGE! There were many different vendors all offering such great services for Brides to choose from to help them plan their perfect wedding. I had the opportunity to meet some great Brides and Grooms which I hope I can be of service to in the future, along with some other vendors! The Bridal Fashion show was top notch and featured dresses from Davids Bridal and Belle Vogue. I couldn't help but to shoot some of the fashion show so I thought I'd share some photos with you and maybe some brides who weren't able to attend can also get some dress ideas. Wedding season is starting and with the weather warming up soon, I will have some more engagement and wedding photos to share with you all soon!
Here are some from the Bridal Show, the first one is of my booth.
Then a couple of yummy cakes from It's a sweet treat day bakery:
And a cake from Price Chopper:
There were also many designers/ decorators that had beautiful displays:
And of course, the fashion show!
Don't forget, if you saw me at the Bridal Show, my show special runs through the end of March, contact me for details!
Happy New Year
Well I know it's been a while since I've blogged. It's a slower time of year for weddings and I've had a little time off during the holidays, so I took a break from blogging too! However with the new year comes a new season in which I started by hosting a booth at the Lawrence Bridal Extravaganza last weekend. It was a great turnout with a wonderful fashion show showcasing many beautiful dresses and other bridal attire. I thought I'd share a few photos of my booth and some of the models. I will be at another bridal show in a couple weeks on Feb. 7th. It's the Lawrence Free State Bridal Fair. If you have come across my website and have been considering contacting me to photograph your wedding, this would be a wonderful opportunity to meet me and see some of my work and albums in person! - Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season!
