{Married}: Erin & Anders



This wedding had it all. They got married in front of a mansion built in the late 1800's, the drove off in a 1969 Jaguar restored by the groom himself, and they got to celebrate their relationship with their family and closest friends. Erin and Anders had a fabulous day. Jake and I feel so lucky to have been a part of it...here are a few favorites from our time with these two!



Isn't she beautiful?


While I was with the girls, Jake was over at the hotel with the boys. I love this shot he got of Anders getting ready.  Looks a little like James Bond would look as he was getting ready, no?


Dear Empire Mine State Park, I love you.
The light here was magnificent.




Anders' mom and grandma chatting with their new daughter :) Elise looks pretty amazing for 93!!

I told Erin that girls everywhere would be jealous after seeing her successful dirty dancing lift. Jake and I worked on it one summer in the pool - needless to say it was not included in our first dance.

Their party was non-stop fun. Definitely one of the most entertaining parties I've been to!

Totally random story - the man in the photo below in the blue shirt is from Boonville, MO - just a few miles from the town where I was born (New Franklin, MO). Even stranger yet - he definitely knows my cousin Sam. Now that's a small world.

A shot of the get-away car! Anders bought this off Craigslist and restored it to working condition.
Who does that? Isn't it amazing!?!

I'll conclude with this rockin' shot of the whole party from Jake. Congratulations, Erin & Anders! We loved shooting your wedding!!

  1. Erika, these are beautiful...I love the group shot where the couples' friends are all around them, but it looks like they're too caught up with each other to notice the kafuffle!

  7. Erika: You have done it again! Beautiful shots of a lovely bride and groom. I loved them all! The swirly gown shot is especially fun as is "the lift". Way to be there for those shots. The ring and car photos were also VERY classy! Keep up the great work!
