Jen + Shawn {St. Louis Wedding} Part 1

Shawn and Jen have got to be one of the cutest couples of all time. They originally met while both attending Missouri Baptist University. But back in those, Jen just wasn’t impressed so the story goes. But eventually over time, they connected via Facebook while Shawn was living in Florida and Jen was still here in St. Louis. And as they say, the rest is history.  

Shawn had a ring, and it was burning a hole in his pocket. He kept waiting for the perfect moment in the perfect place, but all of his plans kept falling through. So one cold day at his apartment, while Jen sat bundled up in maroon sweats and a coat outside, Shawn told her, “I’m tired of waiting for the perfect moment to spend the rest of my life with the perfect woman.” And Jen agreed! 

That perfect day came. And I was happy to be there to photograph this beautiful occasion. 

Jen, you were such a classically beautiful bride.

We left the hotel and headed to Bee Tree Park to find Jen's groom so he can take that First Look at his bride. And I have to tell you, it was the sweetest thing ever. Shawn was so nervous. When he saw her, he was in awe and a bit teary eyed. He said, "You look beautiful. It's [the dress] so you."

Shawn, in case you weren't aware, you married a stunningly beautiful lady!
