Back today for part two of Scott & Cailin’s wedding. We headed over to the Madrid Theater for ceremony & reception time. It’s a beautiful space. Often couples get trapped by beautiful spaces and opting to do too many small things and miss making an impact. We were super impressed by Cailin’s choice to do large focal florals for her ceremony (that doubled after the reception space flipped). They added interest, color and impact without a lot of work on her part! The table designs were simple and tasteful spread with their favorite literature quotes, candles and homemade apple butter favors!
After all the nerves which melted beautifully into contented joy, everyone was ready to let the party begin! The Madrid does such a fantastic job and accommodates wedding/ceremony combos so well! While the staff flipped the ceremony space for dancing and dinner, the guest enjoyed drinks upstairs! BBQ for dinner, great live music, quilt-square guest book, good friends and lots of laughter carried this event into the evening. As we mentioned before, this wedding was particularly special for us since we grew up with Scott – so we got to enjoy the evening with lots of familiar faces!!
Congratulations Scott & Cailin! We wish you much love and adventure. XO – Sarah & Ginger

For their session we thought baking would make a wonderful ‘activity’ to make the portrait session more unique to them, which is always our goal! We met them in Weston, on a cool rainy summer morning this week for their engagement session at the home they are building together. Before we began photographing the rain came down outside and we shared giant mugs of coffee while they shared the history Weston and their home with us – seriously it’s stuff like this that make us so fortunate to do this work! Dylan is rebuilding, what will become their home. He’d started just before they met but she’s joined and complimented his progress. This cottage was the first trapping cabin after Lewis and Clark passed through what is now Weston, beams show original hatchet marks!
In 750 square feet as you can image the kitchen is functional, we were amazed at the perfect harmony these two have in the kitchen. These professionals shined in the kitchen, so graceful together, like a well rehearsed dance. Together they made a “love pie” together – which we enjoyed after the session and it tasted AMAZING!
There was just the right amount of budding flowers in the park to make it feel like perfect spring in KC!
