This session was just as sweet as it looks! Tiffany and Timothy have such great chemistry and it’s evident that they were made for each other. We took their engagement photos at Forest Park in Saint Louis. I had never photographed at Forest Park, but it is now on my bucket list to go back and take many portraits there. Even though we met in Saint Louis, this isn’t exactly where Tiffany and Timothy met. Their story is just as sweet as their portraits let on.

Ashley’s session was full of flowers, overcast skies, and pop-up rain showers! This sure didn’t stop us from creating some BEAUTIFUL senior portraits. Her original session date was in October, but conflicts kept making us reschedule, and we ultimately pushed it back to the spring. I’m so glad we did!! Ashley is such a light and I hope you can see it in the images below.

I wasn’t supposed to have a baby in November. Actually, I wasn’t supposed to have a baby until near Christmas, but God had another plan. What I though would be another weekly appointment quickly turned into a 28 hour labor and the most joyful moment of my life. A whole month before her due date, […]
