As a wedding photographer based in St. Louis, I had the pleasure of capturing Rachel and Samson’s STL The Coronado wedding!
I remember my first phone call with Rachel for our initial consult call, and I remember feeling the instant connection in our conversation. I knew this was a couple I wanted to work with and was so excited going into their wedding day at the Basilica of Saint Louis in downtown, followed by their elegant reception at STL The Coronado wedding venue.
Rachel and Samson chose the Basilica of Saint Louis / Old Cathedral St. Louis for their wedding ceremony, a venue known for its rich history and stunning architecture. The Old Cathedral provided a picturesque and intimate setting next to Gateway Arch National Park.
After the ceremony, we made our way to the Arch grounds. We took photos with Rachel and her closest girlfriends, as well as some photos of their wedding party. These pictures, captured next to the backdrop of one of St. Louis’ most famous landmarks, was so fun!
Next we made our way for Forest Park wedding photos with the wedding party and couple photos. Forest Park, with its lush greenery and beautiful landscapes, provided a perfect backdrop for capturing photos of their loving family and friends. At the end, Rachel and Samson shared private vows. I loved being in the park for this moment!
The cocktail hour and the reception at STL The Coronado wedding venue was nothing short of spectacular. Known for its timeless elegance and sophisticated charm, The Coronado here in STL provided a perfect setting for Rachel and Samson’s celebration.
Rachel and Samson’s personalities and their genuine connection made photographing their wedding a true joy. From the historic charm of the Old Cathedral to the elegance of St. Louis’ Coronado, every moment of their special day was filled with love and happiness.
As a St. Louis wedding photographer, it was an honor to capture the beauty and emotion of Rachel and Samson’s wedding.
