Brooke is an old friend of mine from middle and high school who I value very much! Her and I were in many art classes together including Fashion Class where we used to cut out magazines for our class portfolios and sing songs by 50 Cent! Wow, those were the funny and good old days! Life as you know it, takes us all in different directions, but I was so happy to hear from Brooke when she got in touch with me to tell me she was getting engaged!  I was so happy for her and especially happy to get to finally hang out with my old bestie again!

Brooke met the man of her dreams, Matt through an online site! Matt & Brooke are a match made in heaven and they are perfect for each other! For their engagement session, we wanted something very natural and sweet to capture their love for one another. We headed out to Union Station for their engagement session as well as across the street over to Liberty Memorial. They laughed, hugged, and loved one another and this session was truly one to remember.

I asked these two what they love about each other and here were their responses!

Brooke talking about Matt: “I love his funny, positive, steady demander and his kind heart towards others.”

Matt talking about Brooke: “I love her smile and her eyes. I love her caring heart and how great she is with kids.”

They describe their perfect weekend by being a little productive in the morning and doing a fun project, then cooking dinner, starting up the fireplace, and cuddling while watching a movie for the evening. Aww!

I absolutely loved working with Brooke & Matt for their engagement session. They are truly sweethearts and I can’t wait to photograph their wedding in February! Enjoy their engagement photos taken in Kansas City by Mariam Saifan Photography.
