I’ve gotten quite a bit behind on blogging. We’ve been busy! Over the next few weeks, we’ll be caught up. For starters, here are some favorites from an engagement session. Since we give a disc with a release to use the photos however, our clients come up with creative ways to use their pictures. Andrew and Leah ended up making a sign in wedding guestbook with their photos. It was awesome to see them using and enjoying their photos.

Here are some of my favorite photos of some of the brides and grooms we had this year with the people they are closest to. Looking through these photos, there is a wide variety of styles.

Jessi and Josh’s wedding was very relaxed, and go with the flow. Definitely fitting. I had shot their engagement photos a while back. They’re a very fun couple, and some of the most hilarious folk you’ll ever meet.

It’s always nice when the bride and groom get quite a bit of time for just the pictures of the two of them together. Since Jessi and Josh saw each other before hand, I dragged them down by the river for some portraits of the two of them.

It was a beautiful autumn day, especially back in the trees. Here are some of my favorite pictures.

Take a look at the rest of their wedding pictures here.

We also did the Photo Booth at their wedding.

C.J. and I went out to Sedgwick County Park in west Wichita to take some engagement portraits of Kari and Kaleb. The autumn colors were amazing, and so were these two. Awesome and laid back, Kari and Kaleb really connected.

Kaleb wasn’t too sure about the whole getting his picture taken thing, but I don’t think we made it too painful on him. Always good to meet a fellow Cowboys fan.

Here are some of my favorites from the shoot.

We’re looking forward to their wedding in May! Check out the rest of their engagement photos here: http://themosaicphoto.net/kari-kaleb-engagement

An easy way to save and organize your favorite photos in one place

We deliver a lot of images. Weddings are a full day, and we shoot a lot to make sure we capture everything. Sure, the pictures get narrowed down a lot. But in a typical wedding, we deliver anywhere from 400 to 700 photos. Ish.  Our selection process is pretty stringent, and we only deliver the best photos that tell the story of the day.

Most brides and mothers of the bride have liked us delivering that many. But some people, it’s a bit much to look through them all. Enter collections. I’d posted about using collections to organize your favorite photos a while ago.

Here are the basic steps:

1. Sign up for a free Visitor account. It’s the last option.
2. On the Organizer bar on the left side of your Zenfolio edit page, select New, then Collection.
3. Name your Collection.
4. Go to the gallery on our Sharing Gallery.
5. On the photo you wish to add as a favorite, roll your mouse over the photo, and select Add to Collection on the left side of the photo. Go through and do this will all your favorites.

That’s it! Then you have a collection of your favorite photos.

My friend set up one here for her wedding.

More wedding photography from Jordan and Emily’s wedding

I wrote a while back about Emily and Jordan’s wedding pictures. Here are some more photos from that day.

We shot Jackie and Brandon’s engagement pictures a while back. They’re a fun couple. Brandon played baseball at Wichita State, and Jackie played tennis there. We were able to get into Eck Stadium at WSU to take some pictures, followed by some shots around campus.

Here’s the save the date card we made for them:

Laura and I took some portraits of Phoenix. What an awesome kid, we had a great time. Her mom is a fan of sepia, so we were a little bit heavier on the toning than normal.

See the rest of this cute kid’s pictures here.
