Couples like Kasey and Andrew are why I love what I do! So sweet, fun, quirky, and down for anything! They had an intimate ceremony at the Sand Plum Event Center in historic downtown Guthrie, Oklahoma. They got ready at the Pollard Inn across the street. I was assisted by Catie Bartlett, who contributed some of the shots below, including behind the scenes.

Some of the best weddings come out of a solid vision and working with top-notch local vendors to bring it to life. Jessica was inspired by the class and style of the Great Gatsby. We started at the Colcord Hotel in downtown OKC, where everyone was getting ready. The ceremony and reception took place on the rooftop of The Caliber, which has always been one of my favorite venues for it’s uniqueness and location. Planning and some florals were done by the amazing Emerson Events and Design. Other vendors include Nexus Entertainment & Cheevers Catering.

I took Mark Zimmerman’s first and only other Night Photography class at UCO a few years ago now. It was easily one of my favorite classes in college, not to mention I made some of my best friends (Clifton, Jarrett, and Jon) during our outings to photograph Oklahoma in the wee hours of the morning. If these interest you, take a look back through past blog posts, as the guys and I have met up several times since the first class for Night Photography reunions.

We found out that Mark was planning on bringing the class back as a summer intersession class, so we tagged along to a cool property in Arcadia, Oklahoma and revisited some subjects that we shot several years ago. Here are a few of my favorites from our visit.

These lovely people were my tour guides around the University of Oklahoma campus & Norman’s Campus Corner for their engagement shoot. Their adorable dogs, Rumble and Bella, were even able to join! Can’t wait for their wedding next week!

Kasey & Andrew came prepared with cute props, quirky outfits and a bit of champagne to make the shoot their own! They have been hilarious and relaxed to work with. They completely adore each other, and I adore them! Kasey & I recently completed her bridal shoot as well, which I can’t wait to share after the wedding!

Nic, Emmy, and crew were so much fun! Amazing vintage chic details at one of my favorite venues. I met these two in college and was super excited to get to play this role in their big day. It was quite the party from beginning to end, full of photogenic people!

Make sure to check out the first look session photos- always my favorite part of any wedding day.

If you have a boudoir shoot planned with me, or if you’re considering one, here’s a more extensive look at a full shoot! Boudoir shoots are most successful when it done is a space with plenty of natural light, such as a bedroom with generous windows. Ms. L’s room was perfect for this, but it’s also a great idea to book a nice hotel room or interesting venue.

This classy lady is one of my best friends and a very talented photographer. She needed some new professional head shots as she updates her business brand this year. We made a day of it and hit a lot of cool spots in downtown Oklahoma City. She snapped a few of me as well which you can see below. Afterwards, in another location, she helped me with a concept shoot I’d had in mind all winter- stay tuned for the next blog post! For now, Mrs. Catie Bartlett:
