Crystal & Kyle {Bellies)

My good friends Crystal and Kyle came to the studio this past weekend for part 1 of their Bellies & Babies program. I mean this in the nicest way possible, but sometimes, life just isn't fair!!!! Let me explain .. Crystal is now 36 weeks into her pregnancy and she is BEAUTIFUL!!! She can still move around just fine and is just glowing! They are expecting a baby boy towards the end of this month. Crystal's sister made these little booties and animals! They are amazing!!! I kinda want one for myself! :) We had to throw in some rock chalk baby jayhawk too! Congrats Crystal & Kyle! You guys are going to be amazing parents!!

Here are a few of my fav's from their Bellies session! You can view their full gallery HERE.

Behnaz & Mohammad {03.19.2011}

I recently shared in the beautiful wedding day of Behnaz & Mohammad. These two are so much fun!! I could literally shoot photos of them all day long!!!
They had a beautiful traditional Persian ceremony that was held at the bride's parents home. Everything was stunning! It was so interesting to learn all about their culture and the symbolism of all the items on their wedding spread. The home was decorated with care and everyone was having a great time!
The room where Behanz got ready was beautiful as well with floor to ceiling windows that created the most amazing natural light. We defiantly got some gorgeous images of Behnaz in her wedding gown!
The bride's dress from The Gown Gallery in Kansas City was just amazing! The smell of fresh flowers from The Flower Factory filled the home! The ceremony was beautiful with a few humorous parts as well.
We had plenty of time after the ceremony to play around town! We got some amazing images of the happy couple and they got a chance to relax before the reception.
The reception was held at the Hyatt Regency Wichita. The couple had a beautiful entrance by being welcomed by all of their guests.
After dinner, their amazing wedding cake by WOW Cakes made a grand entrance! It was covered in glittery icing and it just shimmered! They did a traditional knife dance before they could cut the cake. It was so fun to watch!
Their first dance as husband and wife along with the father/daughter and mother/son dance were beautiful. We had one more chance to head out for some more photos of just the bride and groom! We got some lovely night shots and even a few with the "supermoon" before the couple went back into their reception to dance the night away with all their guests and music provided by Deejay Omid! They sure do know how to party!!!
Congrats Behnaz & Mohammad!!!!
Here are a few (okay, a ton) of my fav's from their day! You can see their full gallery HERE.

We started off the day at the Wichita Marriott, Corporate Hills. The staff was so nice and everything was just perfect! The stylists and makeup artists from Fantastic Sam's, Wichita joined us for the fantastic hair and makeup work on the ladies. They did an amazing job! All the ladies loved their looks!!

Behnaz & Mohammad {engagement}

This past weekend I met up with Behnaz and Mohammad for their Engagement Session. It was pretty chilly out so we were trying to think up shoot locations. Behnaz and Mohammad first met about 8 years ago while working in a college bookstore so naturally the perfect location came to mind ... the library! These two are so much fun! We were having such a hard time being quiet!

Behnaz is currently in dental school while Mohammad is an lawyer. They are having a traditional Persian wedding ceremony in March. They are such a beautiful couple! I'm completely excited to share in their special day!

Here are a few of my fav's from their session! You can view their full session HERE.
