Mackenzie and Ryan’s wedding day was such a dream! I had never captured a wedding at the Pere Marquette before so I was super excited to be working at a new venue. Mackenzie’s bridal suite flooded with beautiful, natural light. She was so calm and just excited to finally be marrying Ryan after almost a […]

Shea and Ben waited three years to finally have the wedding of their dreams. After they got engaged in 2019, they had planned their wedding for the spring of 2020, but of course the world shut down and they were forced to reschedule. They still said I do in a private ceremony, but longed for […]

Hannah and Erik waited a long time for the wedding of their dreams, including a postponement to get through the thick of the pandemic. It made such a huge impact on them, but when they finally got to officially say “I do” it was so much more special. There couldn’t be two sweeter people than […]

I have already loved my time getting to know Alexis and Brady! When we first met, they told me about how they had known each other their entire lives as they both grew up in a small town. Brady’s mom was Alexis’s 3rd grade teacher and Alexis’s mom was Brady’s Jr. High teacher, which I […]

Kelsey and JT’s winter wedding was absolutely beautiful! Both of their birthdays are in February (one day apart) so when they got engaged, they immediately knew what month they wanted to get married. Kelsey was absolutely stunning in her custom wedding dress which had removable sleeves (such a gorgeous feature!). They were married in an […]

Katie and Thomas had the most beautiful and intimate wedding day surrounded by their family and closest friends. They had such a classic winter theme with tons of evergreen. Katie had all of the emotions as she shared a first look with her dad and then finally with Thomas. It was pretty cold for their […]

Ali and Dave are high school sweethearts who officially started dating on New Years Eve so it was only appropriate for them to get married in their home city on their favorite holiday! Ali and Dave both grew up in Springfield and met at Sacred Heart Griffin High School. They traveled their own ways for […]

I loved getting to capture Ali and Dave the night before their wedding for their engagement photos! They live out of town, so it was so much easier to capture them when they were in Springfield for their wedding! It is so important to me to work with couples before their big day so I […]

Oh my goodness, I had an absolute BLAST with Chelsea and Dale for their engagement session. Seriously, these two (mostly Dale) had me cracking up the entire session, that I almost forgot it was like 30 degrees with a wind chill! Chelsea and Dale met on New Years Eve and I can just imagine that […]

Sydney and Tyler had the most beautiful winter wedding day! Sydney was one of the most laid back brides and Tyler was definitely the most laid back groom! We had so much fun capturing them during their first look before the ceremony and their bridal party made it so fun too! Sydney looked stunning in […]
