Making wedding photography easier (and more fun!) with tips on how to own your day!
Hi, I'm Ashley Brunell
Welcome Friends
October was a great break for me. It had been over a month since I had photographed a wedding and so I felt like I was ready to roll again! The forecast was great and the venue was just a skip and hop from LAX to KCI… this was going to be a wonderful fall wedding. Andrew and I grabbed lunch and then we headed out to the Nelson Atkins Museum to make sure the leaves were ready for the first look. It was an amazing 72 degrees as I headed downtown and the light was soft and perfect. We couldn’t wait to see Jessica and Mike again!
Once the first look and portraits were done, we headed to National Airline History Museum for the ceremony and reception. The venue was so different than anything else we’ve shot at and was perfect for this wedding and I’m SO glad we were able to shoot there!! As the sun started to set, it became a little chilly but Jessica never complained. In fact, I can’t even imagine Jessica complaining about ANYTHING. She’s seriously the sweetest person.

I first met Kelsi and Evan at my favorite Starbucks about a two months before their wedding! Since we knew we’d be in a rush to get the engagement session, we had no choice but to schedule their engagement session at the perfect time: Summer. In Kansas. Haha! FORTUNATELY… they’re from here, so our 100-degree […]
