Yes- that’s correct. I have 50 pictures to post for Sneak Peeks.
It was a busy weekend :-)
Friday brought the Farwell’s, my parents, Caroline & Molly into town. Molly was heading to Kanakuk and the Farwell’s came for some St. Louis fun! We all went to the baseball game Friday night and it was GREAT! It was an awesome game, we won and Molina hit a homerun :-)
Then I got these AWESOME (or at least I think they’re awesome) sunset pictures. I love the silhouette looking one. I didn’t do anything to these- they’re straight out of camera.
SO much fun! THANK YOU MOM & DAD FOR TAKING US ALL :-)
Then Saturday showed up bright & early with a trip to the Zoo. I didn’t bring my camera, oops ! Anyway- it was hot, but fun :-)
After we got done with the Zoo, I got some stuff ready, ate some lunch and then me, my parents, Caroline & Molly all headed off to Columbia for a wedding. I was actually photographing the wedding as well. I did pictures for Ashley & Brandon earlier this spring and their big day finally arrived this past Saturday!
It was a very cute & sweet wedding, as are Ashley & Brandon :-) Despite the fact that I wasn’t allowed to use a flash in church, I wasn’t allowed to be at the front of the church during the ceremony & my flash decided to FAIL at the reception… (seriously- it was working when I tested all my lighting and then BAM…as soon as they start introducing the wedding party it decides it doesn’t want to work…awesome)…we got some REALLY cute pictures. After the ceremony we headed over to Shelter Gardens to get some pictures outside and not under that awful church lighting :-)
Every thing went really well (minus my flash fiasco) and Ashely & Brandon are off to Florida for their honeymoon. Have fun guys and enjoy your sneak peek! Thanks so much for having us all there for your special day :-)
After the wedding- me, my parents & Molly headed back to St. Louis. Caroline left the reception to hitch a ride with Ali & Andrew back to Kirksville….I know- we’re all over the place :-)
Yesterday evening I met up with my friend Katie, her family & some significant others. They gave their mom a shoot as a Mother’s Day Gift because she has been begging for family pictures for years now. We thought we lucked out and got a nice, breezy Sunday evening….turns out the breeze stopped and it actually got hotter right when we started their pictures. SWEAT! Lots of sweat- yuck. Luckily I can Photoshop that stuff out :-)
Thanks for letting me drag you around Forest Park, Kluesner Family and enjoy your sneak peek!
So then I decided to stay up till 2AM and edit, then get up and do a shoot for these two cuties at 7:45 this morning in Soulard.
This is Nathan & Jackson….and they were SO SO SO cute! I actually did Nathan’s one year pictures back around Christmas. He’s gotten so big :-) His mom & her friend decided to bring Nathan’s little buddy along for some pictures this time. Jackson & Nathan were great!
Enjoy your sneak peeks guys and I hope you made it back home in time for naps & lunch :-)
DONE!!!! Oh man that was a lot :-)
Now that I’ve gotten all those sneak peek’s done, I can actually start working and getting some editing done before I get behind again. Woo hoo!!
I have a newborn shoot tomorrow- SO excited! A wedding in St. Louis this coming weekend, 1 wedding in STL the Friday after that, a wedding in Kirksville that Saturday, a wedding in STL the weekend after that and then….then I get on plane to Seaside for a week :-) Oh- I have lots of other shoots mixed in over the next few weeks- those were just the weddings I have.
Now I need to go pick winner for the NetFlix subscription. I’ll announce it tomorrow!
Carol says
Lissy I can’t say enough about your pictures, and your wonderful ideas, I can’t believe the bride did that, how great was that, and a beautiful pic, they will talk about years down the road.
Your family and your mom & dad, wow, go go go, that is so great. When does Sara leave I am going to really miss Bella photos, your going to have to see them often, anyway this can be done by phone, just kidding, Ok have a good week and next week as well and enjoy that vacation think the whole family deserves, your dad looks great, haven’t talked to him in awhile. talk to you later CArol A
Nancy says
Lissy, I think the bride doing a cartwheel must be a relative, she would fit right in with my sisters and I. I have a picture of me doing a cartwheel in my wedding dress. I believe Barb started the tradition in our family and we just have to keep it going. As always your pictures are amazing and I believe that from the sound of it you will definitely deserve a vacation in Seaside.
Linda Wurm says
I ditto what Nancy said. She has to be related to us somehow. I so wish I had a picture of me doing the cartwheel at my wedding reception!! I also love the picture where they are about to feed each other the cake/ So cute..
Also, if you love queso dip, I have a recipe for White Chicken Nachos that you will love. I will try and put it on here this afternoon. (It’s too early now!!)
Sounds like Seaside will not come soon enough for you. Hopefully you will not be editting pictures for the whole vacation!!
Sara says
I love the wedding photos and it looks like you caught Ashley’s adorable personality perfectly! Michelles little guy is still super cute and the hat makes the pictures! By the way Carol – we invited Lissy to move with us but I don’t think a young single gal is up for living in Bentonville Arkansas so she will just come for lots of visits (and we will be back in St. Louis and Kirksville a lot). Also- I noticed you didn’t include our adorable family picture before the game. You remember, the one with Ryan cleaning the melted fruit snacks off of Bella’s diaper and poor Brady getting crammed into the Baby! I am a little sad that I forgot to get a picture though because it was Brady’s first Cards game! Have fun editting!
Allison says
I love all the pictures. You were one busy girl. I agree with Sara about capturing Ashley’s personality. You looked beautiful Ashley! The little boys are so sweet and I love the setting for the family pictures. And I love all of the pictures from the game. Sara, if you look on my blog I have a picture of Ryan cleaning the fruit snacks off Bella.
barb says
Yes…I do believe I started the cartwheel tradition…but, big question. Did she end in the splits? I was in a wedding this weekend in NYC and yes, I did the splits (on a ferry on the Hudson River). Getting a little too old and not sure how much longer I can keep it up (not really).
You would have loved the scenery for pics in NYC. The wedding was on the top of a loft and the Empire State Building was the background.
Great pics and have a great vaca. I might be in Florida the same time you are there…just not in Seaside ;(
St Louis Weddings says
That’s absolutely insane – great catch! I really really love the Busch Stadium at dusk photos. I can definitely see one of those images on the wall of a fancy office building downtown. Great job!

Howdy, I think your web site could possibly be having internet browser compatibility problems.
When I take a look at your website in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in IE,
it has some overlapping issues. I merely wanted to give you a quick heads up!
Aside from that, wonderful site!

Today, I went to the beachfront with my kids.
I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear
and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is
totally off topic but I had to tell someone!

Hi would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using?
I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a hard time deciding
between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask
is because your design and style seems different
then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.
P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!

My programmer is trying to convince me to move to
.net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs.
But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using
WordPress on a variety of websites for about a year and am nervous about switching to another platform.
I have heard good things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can import all my
wordpress content into it? Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated!
sling tv says
With havin so much written content do you ever run into any
issues of plagorism or copyright violation? My blog has a lot of completely unique content I’ve either
authored myself or outsourced but it appears a lot of it is
popping it up all over the web without my permission. Do you know any solutions to help stop content
from being stolen? I’d certainly appreciate it.
