I can't tell you in words how excited I was (still am...) when Kate and Ryun told me they wanted to do their engagement photos at the historical Marquette Tower in downtown Cape Girardeau. For multiple reasons like 1) I am a history buff and can't get enough 2) How cool and unique is that location?! 3) But mostly because it held a very special and personal place in his heart. The Marquette Tower has been under renovations to restore it for full use as a office building. Ryun has been the construction manager overseeing this project and all its glory! Even more important to him - this old hotel was the location where his grandparents spent their honeymoon night. I just love when couples pick such sentimental locations! 

Scroll down to view this amazing engagement session. Shot with Kodak Portra 400 and Fuji Pro 400 medium format film stock and digital. 

And  obviously can't go without a few at their beautiful home with their beautiful Bella pup. Ryun custom built this swing for Kate as a gift. That's love - and talent.
