I can't think of anywhere else i would have rather been that afternoon. I haven't seen Aaron and Joy since photographing their wedding in June but, just like always, they sat close sharing a smile and laugh. Clear blue skies and 65 degrees waited for us as we headed out the fancy doors of our hotel for the Country Club Plaza! True to typical form, I Ooo-ed and Ahhh-ed making a huge deal over every beautiful spot we found. It wasn't difficult wIth 15 lovely blocks of fabulous architecture and 20 plus ornate fountains - each one seemingly more perfect them the last. By sunset our stomaches were growling and Aaron lead us to one of the trendiest most decadent burger joints I have ever been to, Blanc Burgers + Bottles. Dave being Mr. adventurous ordered a burger decorated with a fried egg, ham, homeade pickles and topped with Blanc's own ketchup and mustard recipe! It sounded a bit out there for my nearly vegetarian taste but, ended up - AMAZING! The entire experience at the Plaza was so delightful we stayed an extra day! Joy and Aaron you are a beautiful couple from the inside out. It was our pleasure to photograph your new life together in Kansas City - thank you for allowing us to capture your love.
xoxo, Laura and Dave
