Katie & Moses (Wedding!)

This past weekend I had the honor of photographing Katie and Moses' wedding in Kansas City. you may remember their engagement pictures were up on the blog earlier this year. As I mentioned then, Katie and I worked together at Park Hill South in Kansas City. It was fun to get to see some of my old friends from that school and catch up. I also got to see an old camp friend, Marissa, who came along as my second shooter. Marissa is starting her own photography business in KC and I am SO glad she was able to come help me out. She has got so much talent and it was so great to hear how her photography business was really starting to take off.

Katie is a big crafter....and walking into her apartment I felt like I was walking into a pinterest picture. She had the perfect mix of new and old, shabby chic, bright colors, and classic lines. I love, love, loved it! Later, when we got the wedding and reception site, you could see Katie's DIY touches EVERYWHERE. And it was BEAUTIFUL! Katie thought of everything....from a video booth, to a photo booth, to a scavenger hunt game for the kids. And with it being on St. Patrick's day, there were little Irish touches everywhere. The best part though, of course, was just seeing Katie and Mo together. Lots of times at weddings the bride and groom get separated as they try to entertain all of their guests, talk to everyone that came to support them, etc. etc. I felt all night like Katie and Mo were a real team....rarely were the separated, and when they were, you could literally see them scanning the room for each other before taking off to join back up together. If their wedding day was any indication....their marriage will be off to a great start. :)

Now, on to the pictures! Prepare yourself....I had a hard time narrowing it down!







Katie and her friends made all of the bouquets for the wedding. They were all so cute! I loved how they added a little green shamrock in honor of St. Patrick's day.



Each of the girls were allowed to pick their own dress for the wedding...it just had to be gray or yellow. I loved how it ended up all coming together. As Katie put it "very anthropology."











Marissa's shot of Mo getting ready...



Here is Katie....waiting to see Mo for the first time....





Their first look...I love the emotion on Mo's face.



The pic below is Marissa's angle on the first look...



It was a VERY windy day out, so while we didn't get all the pictures we had been hoping for, we did brave it for a while. :)





Marissa's group shot below!















There was this cute little farm kitty that wanted to get in on the pictures. You may spot her in a few of the group shots. :)









So many of the pictures of Katie reminded me of something you would see in a vintage bridal magazine...such a classic look!









These next two pictures remind of something you would see in Time magazine....they make me think of old editorial pictures of JFK and Jackie.





Just some of the little touches throughout the wedding....











The ceremony was beautiful...I found myself at times getting distracted by the words and forgetting to take pictures. :) Don't worry...I still got some good ones. :)









The reception was a blast...here are a few shots to close out the post!













That's all (I know...its a lot!) for now...I'll be back over the next couple days with more posts! Spring break gives me lots of time to blog. :)

Until then...
