Lana & Ryan

    |    Posted by Becca on July 20th, 2010

Lana and Ryan are really special.  They kind of captivated me from the beginning.  They both have these beautiful quiet and gentle demeanors, a magnetic and deep love for each other, strong faith, and to top it off, a keen sense of taste.

It was so fun to work beside Parigo Studios in telling the story of Ryan and Lana, both before the wedding day, and on the day itself.  The way that the Parigos captured the movement and sound of the day was just so powerful, and I’m so glad that these two have that for their memory.  Here are some of my favorite images from the day.

Cortney & Zach | Engagement

    |    Posted by Becca on July 9th, 2010

Cortney and Zach make me laugh a whole lot.  Our time together on the engagement session was truly nothing but fun.  Here’s a peek- I was really working the silhouettes that night.

Abbie & Justin | Wedding Day

    |    Posted by Becca on July 6th, 2010

I “inherited” Abbie and Justin from Tyler, when he was already booked for their wedding date, and I am so glad that I did.  I have truly come to love them over our time together this year.  They are the warmest, most hospitable people, and have definitely made me feel like a friend.  I got to know Abbie’s parents a bit over the year as well, and was so touched by their family’s closeness.  The way Abbie feels about her parents reminds me about how I feel about mine.  I loved seeing that in them.

I could tell you many things about the wedding day, but I think what will always stick in my memory about it the most was what a fun party it was!  Jewel and I still talk about it.  I woke up the next morning singing “your love, your love, your love…is my drug” .

I’ll start off with my favorite image from the day.  It was one of those beautiful moments when three disjointed pieces end up converging in the viewfinder for a moment in time…in this case, Abbie and Justin dance framed by Abbie’s parents, and her brother and his fiance (who will be married in October).  Can’t wait to see you all tonight!

Wet and Wonderful 4th of July

    |    Posted by Tyler Wirken on July 5th, 2010

This weekend was full of fun celebrating, despite what the rain had in store for us.  We decided last minute to head to my Aunt’s who lives very close to a wonderful fireworks show and join my family for some 4th of July fun. We hoped the rain would hold out since we were keeping the kids up later than they should be. Unfortunately the rain did not hold out, but we think it turned out to be an even better time!

The rain made it a very memorable night soaking everyone and inspiring some new hair-do’s.  Our 2 year-old Zach made sure to not stray to far from mom all night.  Fireworks can be scary.

Julie + Chris | Wedding

    |    Posted by Tyler Wirken on July 2nd, 2010

01_brown

Julie and Chris have been such a joy to work with over the past year or so.  They have such a great attitude towards life, their wedding, and just rolling with the punches.

We can thank the internet for this wonderful wedding and wonderful couple.  Yup they met on-line.  They now live in Prairie Village with their pup Murphy who I got to know during their engagement session a few months ago.  As with many of my couples the ties to past and present clients goes back pretty far and hits pretty close to home many times.  As they say Kansas City is indeed the biggest small town in America.  I found this out when I was at their house shooting Julie getting ready.  I decided to go outside and see if I could make a nice image of Julie getting her makeup done through the window.  There I was on my tippy toes doing my best no to fall when I hear some guy heckling me from next door.  I turn expecting it to be some annoying neighbor and was surprised to see a very friendly smile.  One of my old grooms lives next door literally.  I shot Callie and Neil’s wedding years ago so it was wonderful to know they would be around that day.  Turns out only Neil could attend the wedding and thank god he did as my assistant Kate had to run back to the studio and get another piece of equipment so I enlisted him to help out with lighting the cake cutting!  He did not hesitate.  There was that sort of camaraderie all day with Julie and Chirs’ entourage of friends.  It was a joy to witness.

The details:

Ceremony- Visitation

Reception- Terrace on Grand

The images:

Said tippy toe image.  Julie gets her makeup done.

My friends Sarah and Matt

    |    Posted by Becca on June 24th, 2010

I am so excited that I will get to photograph my friend Sarah’s wedding in Aspen in September, and she has always been a bit of a muse for me, such a striking elegant woman, so I had a great time shooting some pictures of her and Matt when they were in town a few weeks ago.  Love you guys!

Kathryn & Mike

    |    Posted by Becca on June 23rd, 2010

When I think of Kathryn and Mike I think easy, like breath of fresh air easy.  Perfect example- Kathryn’s cake collapsed while no one was looking, and she just walked over, looked at it and laughed.  The whole day was like this- full of really great moments, made up of everyday kind of things that added up to reveal what authentic, caring, fun people Mike and Kathryn are.

One other fond memory of mine from the wedding day is how often Kathryn said, “I’m just so happy I’m married to Mike Kelly”…(something like that).  I know for sure that every time she said his name, she used his first and last name.  So cute.  Looking forward to seeing you guys next week!

Megan & Lucas

    |    Posted by Becca on June 17th, 2010

Our friends at LemonLime were kind enough to send Megan and Lucas over my way when they were already booked for their November wedding date.  Lucky me!  I was excited from the beginning because of their great style (Megan is a classic beauty always dressed so elegantly, and Lucas knows good imagery, being in film production himself), paired with the most down to earth friendly attitudes.  For now, these two have a foot in Kansas City, and a foot in LA, but for this shoot we stuck to Megan’s charming Brookside neighborhood and the bowling alley where they had their first date.

Mindy & Jason

    |    Posted by Becca on June 10th, 2010

Every once in awhile I get to shoot weddings for people that I know well and love dearly.  When I walked away from shooting Jason and Mindy’s wedding day, I was full of the sense that I just got to witness something deeply sacred.  I have called Jason a friend for years, but on their wedding day, I got to spend the whole day with Mindy, and I fell in love with her.  She is so amazingly beautiful through and through.  She brings out a side of Jason that I have never seen before- the “in love side”!

The weather was the opposite of what they might have pictured for their completely outdoor wedding.  It was cats and dogs all day long.  So while their dreams of yard games in the grass were rained out, something amazing and unexpected unfolded in its own rainy beauty.  The rain really complimented the seriousness of what was happening.  It kind of hushed us all, so we all paid closer attention.  And I told Jason and Mindy what I tell people often and really mean- that pictures are often even better when things don’t go according to plan, because then we end up with scenes that we could not have imagined or come up with on our own.
A little story to introduce the first picture…Mindy had told me before the wedding that her gift for Jason was really special- it was a piece that she had commissioned from our artist friend Cari- as Jason had always wanted one of her collages.  Funny thing was, Jason had come up with the exact same idea for Mindy.  Neither of them knew.  So now they have a pair of complimentary Cari Williams originals.  Here is Mindy’s reaction to her gift.

Megan + Jacob | Engagement

    |    Posted by Tyler Wirken on June 9th, 2010

I had a blast with these two a few weeks ago on a crazy nice day out in the country.  Megan wanted a country theme as she was dying to wear her new boots.  They are such a great couple and had so much fun running around in the tall grass with their two sweet dogs.  Thanks for being such great subjects!  I can not wait for their similarly themed wedding at the Red Barn in Weston in a few weeks!

Enjoy.

I found this great tree near where we were shooting that came with a  newly built tree house!
