Just Be Yourselves - Lindsey and Justin


To say that we had fun shooting Lindsey and Justin's St. Louis wedding at the 9th Street Abbey would be an understatement.  We had a blast because they did, too!  Their personalities and interests were present in every aspect of the day.  When you plan your wedding, never forget that it's your day - remember that it's OK to ignore protocol and do things your own way.

For some inspiration, take a look at what Lindsey and Justin did.

Special thanks goes out to my awesome second and third shooters (Stef and Corey Woodruff)!

A Tip for Getting the Best Bar/Bat Mitzvah Photos - Jaime's Bat Mitzvah


Jaime's Bat Mitzvah was held at St. Louis's United Hebrew Congregation.






We hear that she did a great job and that it was a beautiful service, but we weren't there! The photos above were all taken during Jaime's walk-through (basically a Bat Mitzvah dress rehearsal). Had we taken photos during the actual event, we would not have been allowed to get up close - and we couldn't have gotten the variety of camera angles shown above.

For the ultimate Bar/Bat Mitzvah photography experience, we would definitely advise our clients to invite us to the walk-through in addition to the big day.

Here are a few of our other favorites. Mazel Tov again to Jaime and her family!
