Jeff and Heather are married!

After months of snow and clouds and daylight savings time, I was SO excited to shoot my first wedding of Spring 2008! Jeff and Heather's gorgeous wedding was held at First Presbyterian Church of Kirkwood last weekend, and the weather had been absolutely beautiful all week, but it turned rather chilly and cloudy on the day of the wedding, which, according to Heather, was ok, just as long as it didn't rain :). And it didn't!

Some details:

The beautiful Heather. Isn't her hair fantastic?? Heather is a big fan of Project Runway and she saw this hair style on the denim episode in season 4. I'd say her stylist is pretty much rocked it :).

Ok, this is just too cute. Jeff and Heather actually met for the first time while standing in line at Toys 'R Us the day after Thanksgiving. It was only fitting that we returned to place where it all began :)

Before heading to reception, we spent some time in downtown St. Charles shooting some portraits of Heather and Jeff.

Even though the day was a little chilly, we had a great time walking around Old St. Charles before the reception taking photos. Since it was the weekend before St. Patrick's day, there were a few, um, inebriated fellows on the streets as well. One guy (I swear I could smell the beer on him from across the street) saw us walking around and yelled, "Hey, what's wrong with your photographer?! She's only three feet tall!" Seriously, I may be a little petite, but the beer had obviously created a deficit in this dude's height perception ;)

Lisa- These are gorgeous! The color is amazing.
If you remember me, I am a fellow photographer from NC and just moved here. I would still love to get together for some starbucks and shop talk.
Are you available anytime soon?

There is nothing wrong with not being tall.
The Toys R Us shot was neat. They have such a cool story.
