Everyone loves Henry! {St. Louis Outdoor Family Photographer}

Published on by kristifoster1 Comment

You have already seen the sneak peek, now are you ready for some more?

Henry is one of the happiest kids I know.  He and his parents live in my building, and I love hearing his giggles out in the hall, when they are letting Henry run around.  Jackson and Hope like to visit with him too!

We had a great day for a family portrait session out at Forest Park; not too cold and still some fall leaves.  At Henry’s age I expected him to give us about 15 minutes before he would ‘be over’ all the sitting and smiling for the camera but he let us hang out for abour 45 minutes.  While he wasn’t real sure about this huge black thing in his face that kept flashing every few minutes, he did have fun and smiled a lot (OK and he cried once) too!

So enjoy a few more pics of Henry and his mom and dad.  If you like their photographs, leave them a comment to let them know.  And hey, share the link with your friends who may need family portraits too; let them will know where to find me!

Weddings, Weddings and more Weddings

It was the hottest day of the year, here in STL and I was helping Denise photograph a wedding…OUTSIDE. I think I drank more water and Gatorade in that one day then I did all summer.  But it was worth it. The bride and groom did just great and never broke a sweat although I do not know how.

I have been lucky; this year I was able to work with several different photographers to “second shoot” some weddings.  I really enjoy helping out because it gives me the chance to see other photogs in action as well as allowing me to focus on the candid and details, which I love so much.  Plus I was able to go to several new places such as The New Town Chapel, which was a wonderful place for a wedding.  I was introduced to the Old Town Chapel in Florissant MO, where I met one of the most humorous ministers around who had a knack for a beautiful and powerful message about marriage. I also photographed at Twin Oaks Presbyterian Church, where we had awesome courtyards with fountains and stain glass, we even beat the rain on that day…but just barely.

Enjoy a few pics from the different weddings. And remember, Kristi Foster Photography books a limited number of weddings each year so make sure you call or email me now to book your 2014 or 2015 date.

Sweetest Couple Ever {St. Louis Intimate Wedding Photographer}

Published on by kristifosterLeave a comment

OK, everyone has been asking about my older couple’s wedding.  I was asked by a friend to photograph a small intimate wedding at a home in Town and Country.  Of course I said yes.

The back story I was given is as follows:  Bev went to work for Charles right out of school; she was his assistant.  Not long after she started he said to her, “you know, you’re a smart cookie, you should go back to school”.  And she did.  She went from his assistant to a lawyer and they worked together side by side for many years.  Then they opened up their own law firm and became partners. All the while Bev became great friends to Charles and his wife.  They even lived next door to one another.  They really were all best friends.  Then several years ago Charles’ wife got ill and so both Bev and Charles rallied together to care for her.  She died 2 years ago and Bev and Charles remained best friends.  So what do best friends do? They get married and live happily ever after. THE END!

All you have to do is look at their smiles to know… there is love!
