ahhh! this is my favorite thing about your work. I love love love and just get so inspired by your ring shots! Do you mind sharing how you shoot the rings when you drop them? Do you use a macro or what lens do you use. I tried replicating it and the rings would come up blurry and i just gave up. Hahaha! Thank you amelia! Great work!

I want to cry looking at these photos! You have captured the dress so very very beautifully.... not to mention the bride and groom. But from the dressmakers perspective, you nailed it. Dang, I wish I could express my gratitude. Oh well. I think I could ramble all night and it wouldn't come close. Love the out of focus one of Heidi. Breathtaking! They are just such a great couple.

HA! Seriously that is one of Melissa Blackburn's dresses?! I LOVE her work, I have followed her blog for over a year, maybe two years now?? She is a wonderful dress designer and I adore her artistry. She's just wonderful. I was planning on having her design my own wedding dress but I lost my sweetheart last year. Much happiness to Heidi and Jeff!

I've checked in on this blog for several years now and time and time again I am stunned by your images. I still remember the first time I randomly stumbled upon your site while fiddling around on the Internet at work passing the time, I must have been on here for hours that first few days lol. I'm always so impressed at the moments you capture and hope someday when the occasion arises for me to hire a photographer that I can find someone half so talented as you near Missouri to capture my moments. P.S. This wedding and it's photos are my all time favorite from any site I've seen. Thank you for sharing your talents.

I am getting married and would absolutely love to have this dress... just a little different neckline... If anyone knows how to get ahold of Melissa Blackburn (she made the dress) I would love that. emiliestorm@gmail.com or 614-747-0021! I love this wedding and everything about it as well. It looks fantastic!
