My wedding photography signature style is rooted in elevated imagery that balances the thoughtful with the unexpected. From your personalized monogram and your grandmother’s pearl earrings, to the belly laughs and inside jokes that spark during heartfelt speeches.
I’m here to capture it.
Taran and Joe are just the cutest little college sweethearts ever! You could say that they are a match made in Razorback heaven 😉
Their classic Kansas City engagement session full of fun and joy, just like Taran & Joe! We began their session at Loose Park, taking in the Rose Garden’s late summer beauty. From there, we headed to the Nelson-Atkins Museum where we had the gardens pretty much to ourselves.
From the very first click of my camera I knew that this was going to be the most perfect evening 🙂 Taran & Joe’s love and playfulness shine through the camera! They were down for any adventure I suggested; they were just happy to be spending the evening together celebrating their love. And I’m told there was a celebratory sushi date night planned afterwards!
Taran & Joe’s college story isn’t quite ordinary. They actually met the very first night of their freshman year at Arkansas! Talk about fate, am I right? Though the connection was obvious from the beginning, they didn’t begin dating until later that year. And the rest is history. Since then, they’ve been traveling the world side by side (and sometimes accompanied by their dear families).
Taran will be a June bride (just like me!) and their Mission Hills Country Club wedding will be filled with beautiful touches and meaningful moments. Taran’s parents actually got married at MHCC as well, which makes their venue choice all the more special!
Taran & Joe, I simply can’t wait for the big day! In the meantime, I’ll keep drooling over your engagement session 😉
CHEERS TO TARAN & JOE!
Can’t get enough of Taran & Joe? Check out their wedding day!
