Engagement Pictures

Steve and I are getting ready to take our engagement pictures soon! The photo shoot will be on Saturday, May 21st. We'll be walking around one of our favorite parts of Kansas City called Westport. Westport, back in the day, was basically the last "jumping off" point from the river for people headed west on the trail system. The city was filled with wagon-train outfitters providing food and other provisions for those headed West, and also prospered as a trading post with Native Americans. The Battle of Westport was the largest battle of the Civil War west of the Mississippi. Today, several of the original buildings still remain and there is a historical walking tour you can take through town. Though the area is now known for restaurants, boutiques and nightlife (oh and the BEST ice cream shop in KC - Murray's) the history still remains.

We hope to capture images that showcase some of the most unique spots in the area, and some of our favorite spots as well. Yes, we will be eating some ice cream. Stay tuned for the photos to come!

Some people have started to ask where Steve and I are registered so I thought I'd do a quick post. We are registered at Crate & Barrel and Bed, Bath & Beyond! Thanks so much!
