Amanda and Aaron are by far one of the most creative couples I’ve had the chance to work with and their engagement shoot ideas were SO AMAZING.  They had this idea of a throwback day full stacked with milkshakes, a picnic and lots and lots of love!  Then we finished in the city for a few sunset shots.  Let’s go to Lexington!

Engagement Photo Books are a cool way to show off your engagement shoot to your guests upon arrival to the wedding.  We design them with a variety of images and open space for notes.  It’s definitely a cool upgrade to the traditional guest book.  Check out Katie and Chad’s engagement book design!

We had a wonderful day with Mako and Walt around Kansas City for their local reception after getting married in Jamaica. Mako’s beach wedding dress and Walt’s linen suit made for a cool Kansas City look. Although we did not photograph their destination wedding, we brought it all together to build one awesome album.
