Michael and Christina met me the other day to talk about their wedding coming up very soon in August. I think I speak for all three of us…we are excited (I think they may be a bit more excited, but hey, photographers can have fun, too!).

We got to know one another, meeting at Starbuck’s on the Country Club Plaza and then meandering around exploring and having a good ol’ time. I hope the pictures show it. Let me know what you think!

Normally, I wouldn’t post a sultry pic like this first, but this was the first shot out of the camera! Hot!

Sticking out tongues!

His killer blue eyes make for wicked black & whites.

Hot!

Running!

Follow the arrows, bro. Follow the arrows.

Even their backsides are cute. It makes me sick.

As an experiment: I purchased a cool texture of iStockphoto and did some playing around. What do you think?

July 21, 2007 will be a memorable day, not only for me, but for Katie and Garrett as they tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony. I, once again, tagged along with Heather Cole and her second shooter Aaron Harrison for a fun-filled day of creativity and boundless energy.

I will keep the dialogue brief, only to say that I think the fun photos speak for themselves. We shot at the Holy Trinity Catholic Church, The Nelson Atkins Museum of Art, the historic Country Club Plaza, Westport and at the reception which was at the awesome and historic Uptown Theater.

So, after these past couple of weddings, I have decided that Steller Photography is going to beginning an aggressive campaign for 2008 weddings. We’ve got the talent, experience, creativity and many, many open weekends to make it happen. Tell your friends!

The Reveal

 This is all the guys getting ready to go in. Father of the bride is far left, groom is far right!

This couple could not stop smiling or laughing…all day!

I am proud to say that I have two new additions to the family! Of course, here are a few photos to chronicle them. I hope you enjoy!

We added a cute little addition to my immediate household. Born May 8th and adopted last week. She is an Australian Shepherd and Golden Lab mix. She was the runt of the litter and is calm and sweet and loving. Her name is Madison (after the President…her brother was Truman and her sister was Kennedy). She is already fitting in with our routine and becoming a permanent fixture in our lives. I only wish the ever talented Erin Vey lived closer so she and Gracie could play!

My sister, Lacey (from a previous post), had her healthy baby girl! 3 hour, natural delivery with no drugs…yeah, she’s super-woman.

In the photos, you see Ruby only 24 hours young, still in the hospital. She is now a week or so old. In one of the photos, you see daddy’s proud hands holding his second daughter. I know exactly how proud he feels right now! Congratulations, Lacey & Danny and Lily!
