Boy, oh boy. Winter is officially here. And it is SO bitterly cold this year!! Which means we’re wanting to do nothing but hunker down by the fireplace with cups of coffee (who are we kidding, glasses of wine), and watch Netflix. Which, is one of our favorite pastimes. But. BUT. We’re more than happy to break this routine we’ve found ourselves in to go create imagery. Especially of Holly and Evan. And especially with ALL the twinkly lights and Charles Dickens-esque pictures they want.

You see, Holly and Evan are two of the most selfless, loving, caring, giving people that we’ve ever met. These two are getting married next October. And when they get married? It’s not just the two of them. They’ll be combining both of their families. Which means together they’ll have 6 crazy-wonderful, sweet kiddos. And that they deserve some alone time every now and again to do something to focus on them. Which is where their engagement session comes in to play.

You see, Holly loves winter. And everything about it. The twinkly lights, the trees, the classic architecture of the city that reminds her of a Charles Dickens novel. And those are all things that she wanted incorporated in her engagement session. Which is why, 4 days before Christmas, we were more than happy to leave our cozy, warm fire to go adventure around Kansas City with them, creating their engagement pictures.

And adventure we did. Starting with one of our very, very favorite neighborhoods in the city, The Garment District. With all of its red brick buildings, old light posts strung with lights, and gorgeous archways, this was right up Holly and Evan’s alley.

And then, instead of finishing outside at Crowne Center we headed to Union Station to finish their session. Why? Well, because who are we kidding. None of us could feel our noses or our toes!
