Y’all, yesterday was an absolute whirlwind, and I loved every minute of it!

In the morning, I set out allll the way across the state for St. Louis to capture Paige & Jordan’s engagement session! These two college sweethearts live just outside of St. Louis, and it was so fun to explore the city with them. Naturally, we incorporated two iconically St. Louis landmarks – the Gateway Arch and Tower Grove Park – into their session.

A fun fact about Paige & Jordan: they have no official dating anniversary! They met through mutual friend groups in college at the University of Missouri. As their friend groups meshed together, so did their connection with each other. Eventually they started hanging out sans friends, and eventually those hangouts became dates. And the rest is history 🙂

the gateway arch

Stop #1 was the Gateway Arch. This behemoth of a monument is just so very captivating, and the grounds around it are perfectly manicured. Nearby is the old courthouse, the famous site for many historical cases.

tower grove park

Tower Grove Park is a stunning historic park just outside the boundaries of the Missouri Botanical Garden, so Paige & Jordan’s elegant attire fit in perfectly. If time (and smiles!) would have allowed, I would have covered every inch of this beautiful space with these two. But eventually the sun set and it was time to head home.

CHEERS TO PAIGE & JORDAN!

I can’t wait to capture your official anniversary on your wedding day this fall!
