Windows on Washington Wedding – Jill and TJ

Jill & TJ – September 5, 2009

Cloudy skies and a bit of rain couldn’t stop us from getting some amazing photos from Jill and TJs wedding.

I loved how they included a lot of little details to pay honor to their families – everything from a bagpiper to Jill’s grandmother’s rosary wrapped around the bouquet. I also loved Jill’s father and how expressive his face was throughout the day. You could really tell this was his little girl getting married and he couldn’t have been prouder.

After group photos in Forest Park we headed over to Atomic Cowboy for a quick drink and an awesome photo of the guys. TJ had said he wanted a photo of the guys sitting around enjoying a drink together. Atomic Cowboy has some great furniture, atmosphere and lighting that make for some pretty spectacular photos.

The reception was at Windows on Washington on my favorite floor (the eighth) We ended the night with a few photos by the glass flowers in the lobby of the building.

Jill and TJ – Thank you so very much for hiring us to be your wedding photographers. You had a very special wedding and we hope the photos do it justice.

Sheraton St. Louis City Center Hotel Wedding – Christi & Darris

Christi & Darris – August 15, 2009

I am personally drawn to people that are quick to smile. There are some people out there that can smile and make your whole day brighten. Christi and Darris are two such people. It was so sweet to watch their expressions during the ceremony. There is no doubt that they are in love.

We started the day off with getting ready photos at the Sheraton St. Louis City Center Hotel. I love this hotel. The rooms are beautiful and full of gorgeous light for preparation photos. The lobby also makes a nice place for quick pre-ceremony photos. After the ceremony we rushed over to Forest Park before heading back to the Sheraton Hotel for the reception.

The reception had a lot of very personal touches to it. Besides a fun and energetic entrance to Rihanna’s “Umbrella,” their brother and friend serenaded them with two of their favorite songs. The dance floor was completely packed thanks to some good music and a lively crowd. It was one of those weddings where no one wanted to go home.

Christi & Darris – Thank you so much for choosing us to be your wedding photographers. We are so very happy to have been a part of your special day. May your love and happiness only grow stronger.

Windows on Washington Wedding – Kelly & Marc

Kelly & Marc – July 25, 2009

We were really excited about being Kelly and Marc’s wedding photographers after we got back from photographing their engagement session in Austin, Texas last January. We knew they would be a lot of fun and give us plenty of opportunities for amazing photos.

The getting ready photos at the Renaissance Hotel were gorgeous, followed by a very beautiful and intimate ceremony at The Old Cathedral. We took them out for photos in Forrest Park and walked the streets of Downtown St. Louis before heading over to Windows on Washington for the reception.

I love the photo above because of the reflection of the two of them in the polished marble. Thanks for looking. These photos will be posted on Zettl Photography’s facebook page. Please feel free to become a fan and tag your photos. www.facebook.com/zettlphoto

And to Kelly & Marc: Congratulations! We wish you the very best for many years of happiness! Thank you for letting us be a part of your special day.
