I had the most amazing time photographing an intimate backyard wedding in Columbia, Missouri recently. The setting was incredibly special as it took place at the house the bride grew up in. It was so heartwarming to see the love and memories that filled the space as the couple exchanged vows surrounded by family and friends.

There’s something truly special about downtown Columbia. The lively streets, the charming local spots, and the vibrant atmosphere make it a perfect place for an engagement shoot. This couple wanted their session to reflect their love for the city and each other, and what better way to do that than by incorporating some of their favorite activities: enjoying pizza and drinks together!

Runge Prairie is a gorgeous spot with expansive fields and vibrant wildflowers that make the perfect backdrop for any photoshoot. It’s just a short drive from Columbia, MO, but it feels like a peaceful retreat into nature. If you’re looking for a romantic and scenic location for your engagement photos, this is the place to be.

I can hardly find words to describe the sheer beauty and magic of the engagement session I recently had in the mountains of Utah. Surrounded by pristine snow, towering pine trees, and the quiet serenity of nature, it was truly a dream come true for both the couple and myself, the lucky documenter of their love story.

In a world filled with grandeur and glimmering venues, sometimes the true essence of love gets lost in the spectacle. But picture this: an intimate backyard wedding nestled in the heart of Columbia, Missouri.
