Kickin' Off 2011 with Connie & Jim

We kicked off 2011 with the fabulous wedding of Jim and Connie. This wedding was amazing in so many ways. We got to shoot in Pattonville's Firehouse, where Jim is Battalion Chief....we got to witness the joining of two incredible families. Something a little personal to me (Lisa) is Connie is a life long friend of my sister in laws, when she mentioned she wanted a little fur to wear for outside photos...I jumped at the chance to let her borrow my grandmothers. I know furs are so not "PC" right now, but this one is over 40 years old and belonged to my grandmother who we lost at too young of an age. To see it on Connie and to have it captured in photos....it touched me greatly.

Onto the beautiful, snow covered wedding day......


I was happy when Connie asked if we could bring our little chalkboard....and incorporating her "thoughts of the day" Peace, Love and Happiness!


We love this image of the whole family (9 kiddos...if your counting) enjoying the head table together.
Connie and Jim....it was an honor to be there to capture your day and celebrate with you. Much love!!
Lisa and Kelly
**Side Note** Kelly and I had the awesome experience to work with Kim Neff on this wedding, she worked as our second shooter....and she fit in so perfectly. Can't wait to have Kim along on some of our other weddings this year.

  2. In one word... WOW!
    Lisa, Kelly & Kim...you three are wonderful! Our wedding day was completely AMAZING, and to have our memories captured so perfectly...who could ask for anything more?
    Capturing 9 kids smiling at the same time...a feat in itself!!! :)
    We really love the diversity of the photos...from classic wedding portraits, to totally artistic, one of a kind shots, they are so much fun to look at! The time and effort you put into your work shows in each photo.

    Every picture tells a story...and you've told our Peace, Love & Happy "Story" beautifully.

    Many Thanx!
    Connie & Jim Usry
