the story of
shauna + ben
and engagement photography in Kansas City
~*~
A pandemic isn’t exactly a prime time to meet new people, let alone to find a life partner. But with the help of Bumble, these two found they were practically neighbors — which soon led to backyard hangouts.
They hit it off so quickly and completely that it was no surprise she’d be his date the following year for a wedding at the Overland Park Arboretum. As it turned out, though, that supposed wedding was actually just an excuse for them to be dressed in their best when he surprised her with a proposal!
Shauna and Ben: How wonderful this strange time in history came with such a silver lining for you, and how wonderful for me to get to document a little of the love story you’ve started. I can’t wait to capture its next chapter on your big day in April!

I'm a print-journalist-turned-wedding-photographer who fully believes in the value of telling true stories beautifully. By means of a camera, I am a curator so my clients can be keepers of their most important moments.
