Congratulations Ann & Cale!

Last weekend, I headed to Lawrence, Kansas to take engagement photos of Ann & Cale. We all went to the University of Kansas together, and they are getting married in July, 2010. We braved some snowy sidewalks, but I think that the campus was a perfect backdrop for their photos. I'm looking forward to heading to McPherson, Kansas to photograph their wedding this summer!

Here is their slideshow.

Zion National Park

Over Thanksgiving, my parents treated us to a trip to Zion National Park, about three hours outside of Vegas. It was the last weekend of shuttle service through the park, and the crowds were thinner than usual. I was able to take some time to grab a few nice photos. For more images, go the slideshow.

Sneak Peak- Christmas Pictures

Our friends Angie and Nick asked me to take some Christmas pictures of them again this year. Avery had a lot of fun at Laumeier, playing in the leaves and showing off her cute outfits (i.e. getting them muddy!). Here is a sneak peak at the session. Click here for the slideshow.

Busy Few Months!

I haven't posted photos in awhile, and it's not because I haven't been busy. In fact, I assisted on two weddings in August and September with http://www.radkehaus.net/, then celebrated one friend's wedding and two friends' babies! Check it out:

Images from late summer weddings:

Here are a few from Margot's big day. I was so honored to be in the wedding, and
I was able to snap a few photos of her gorgeous updo!

During that same fun trip to KC, we got to visit our friends Samantha and David
in the hospital, and we got to meet Adriana:

It was a great weekend. And just a few weeks later, I got together with my
elementary school friends, Lauren and Renee, for a visit with her new baby boy
Micah. Congrats Lauren and Johnse-he is perfect!

SLIDESHOW

Sasha and Rob's Wedding

Sasha and Rob had an elegant August wedding with a very fun reception in Soulard! More photos to come and the slideshow will be up soon. What a beautiful bride!

Dunning/Dietzler Anniversary Party

Last weekend was a 30th Anniversary Party for two great couples! Their children put together a slideshow with years of family vacations, weddings, and grandchildren. Between the etched signature frames and the group Michael Jackson dance, I think these two families have some great memories of their evening. I hope I can provide a few more:

Kansas Photos

A few weeks ago, I was in Kansas to take "kid" pictures for an anniversary gift to their parents. What a great idea! I think we all had a good time, and I'm relieved that the weather cooperated. It's always fun to help friends give a thoughtful gift. And here are the surprise photos!

Budget Travel

I just had to post my recent input on a Budget Travel photography forum:

If you scroll down, you can catch my tip to traveling photographers! I think it's a good one.

Sasha and Rob's Second Engagement Session

Finally, a warm day at Forest Park! Of course, it did rain about 20 minutes after we finished, but these are great photos of the place where Sasha and Rob got engaged. I hope they enjoyed their afternoon, and are getting excited for their upcoming wedding. Less than two months away!

New Camera and More Europe Photos!

Friday, I received my new DSLR in the mail! I can't wait to use it more. I'll post a few photos of the dog I took with it when I get a chance. Meanwhile, here's a few more photos from our trip in April that I played around with. Also, stay tuned for Sasha and Rob's second engagement session.

Slideshows up for Italy and Ireland

The slideshows are up at http://www.febimages.com/ for my trip to Italy and Ireland. Enjoy! These images are all for sale as well, with more to come. If you have questions, let me know. And check back frequently for more travel and fine art images to be posted. It was a great trip, and I know it'll be months before I finish creating a trip album, so I'll post new photos along the way.

Italy and Ireland!

I finally had a chance to peek at over one thousand photos I took in Italy and Ireland in April. Here are just a few. I will be placing some of my favorites on the website, in the slideshows, and I'm hoping to have prints and additional products for sale shortly. We had the unique opportunity to see a lot of the countryside in both places, while staying in great cities as well: Florence and Rome in Italy, and Killarney and Dublin in Ireland. Stay tuned for more. Contact me if you are interested in ordering prints for your home or office!

Sasha and Rob in Forest Park

After a rain-out the day before, we spent a windy, yet sunny afternoon in Forest Park on Sunday. Sasha and Rob are getting married this summer and they are excited to get their "Save the Date" announcements out to friends and family. Forest Park has special meaning for them, so it was the perfect place to take spring engagement photos. We'll be back this summer when the weather is a little warmer and the flowers have bloomed.

Gabby is TWO!

Our friends Samantha and David came for a weekend visit from Kansas City with their daughter Gabriella. She celebrated her second birthday just a few weeks ago, and she posed for some fun photos to celebrate. As a special treat, she even got to eat a gooey butter cookie at 9:30 in the morning (only in St. Louis)!

Fine Art Endeavor

I have created a new online shop strictly devoted to fine art photography. This is a great outlet for me for all of my travel photos and stylistic wedding images.

I'm excited to experiment and get creative with a line of prints and stationary.

Here is the link, if you'd like to check it out:

I'll be adding lots more in the next few weeks and especially after our trip to Italy and Ireland later this year!

Colleen's Rehearsal Dinner

Our cousin got married this month, and I was thrilled to be able to photograph the Rehearsal Dinner. It was a great wedding, and I was excited to be a part of it. Everything was beautiful.
