About a year ago I was able to photograph a friend’s newborn son! The happy parents waited to find out if they were having a boy or a girl and were delighted when Peyton arrived. This cutie has now turned 1, but here he is at one week old.

You can’t find a more all-American couple than a firefighter and a teacher! I was so pleased to be able to photograph my twin brother and his fiancée. We wandered around downtown in our hometown in Texas and found some great spots. I loved being able to see how happy my brother is with his sweetheart.








What a blessing when a new baby joins a family! We loved being able to photograph this little princess. Her siblings even joined us for some pictures! We had fun shooting with some new props and backgrounds, and we look forward to using them more!








This bride and groom had big plans on their wedding day for where they wanted to take pictures. The plan was to go to their favorite places around St. Louis and get a lot of outdoor shots. Well, Mother Nature had different plans. It rained. So, we showed up for their 1st anniversary and went to all the places we didn’t get to go before! It was a lot of fun running around the city, and being able to see how much joy they had after their first year of wedded bliss.







If you dance with your heart, your feet will follow! We enjoyed photographing the dancers at a local studio. From the little tykes in tiny tutus, to the advanced dancers, it was fun seeing the joy on the dancers’ faces.






We returned to Texas and braved the heat to photograph the couple from our country engagement shoot. The tiny chapel was decorated with light pink roses resting in mason jars, and an old truck was parked outside to whisk them away. They had personalized cook books, peach jam, and mason jar mugs for all their guests to take home. Overall, it was another cute and customized country night!











With today’s society becoming more and more image driven, we are finding that a lot of business are having their employees put their photo on their business cards. We were able to provide some headshots for this St. Louis realtor! She told us she never enjoys taking photos, but she actually had fun with us! We enjoyed it too, and now her cards look great!



Defy loves the chance to travel to a wedding. This was our first trip to California! The bride and groom love nature and tried to bring the outdoors into their reception as well. Perhaps the sweetest part of their story is that the groom was the bride’s first boyfriend! So her first kiss was also her last first kiss!








We had the opportunity to photography a country themed engagement session in Texas. It was one of our most memorable shoots. We shot at a hand-made log home, on an antique tractor, by the pond, and even in the cow pasture! Congratulations to this country couple and all the best in your future together!
