Each November my day job sends me somewhere usually really obscure for our annual meeting… I’ve been to places like, Cromwell, CT, Boise, ID, Tulsa, OK…. and so on…. last year took me to Lincoln, Nebraska! Corn country! The older I get, the less I enjoy flying… and the less I enjoy flying on small, regional jets…. which is of course the only aircraft that goes in and out of Lincoln. So, I opted for a big plane for (a cheaper) flight into Kansas City, MO and rented a car for the 3 hour drive. I got in before lunch and had plenty of time to peruse the flat, farmlands of Missouri, Iowa and Nebraska. Once I arrive in Lincoln, I got to tour the Nebraska Cornhuskers football stadium, athletic facilities, the Tractor Test Museum and the Capitol. A few weeks later, we hopped a plane to Dallas to see the Panthers destroy the cowboys on Thanksgiving Day with Karen, Paul & Porter… it was glorious!

Sometimes in the dead of winter, in the dead of a wedding photographer’s season… you just need to get out and play! The lovely Katelyn modeled this KILLER Tory Burch gown I found (which is for sale if anyone’s interested!), Audry of Paper, Scissors, Beauty did Katelyn’s hair and makeup (yow!!! so pretty!!!) and Jenkins Rose provided the perfect, modern paper goods! These gals were wonderful to work with, and I’d highly recommend them for your day. The flowers cost me about $30 at Fresh Market and I tied them together with a scrap of black and white fabric from Ikea.

It’s always a huge priviledge to work with Michelle Lyerly, but getting to shoot with her at Lonesome Valley’s Canyon Kitchen was unreal. Kristin & Andrew’s wedding day was such perfection. The weather, the food, the people and the scenery was to die for. This is one of those venues I could shoot at week after week and never get tired of it! Someone please take me back to photograph more weddings there!
