Suddenly Season

No doubt about it fall has arrived! You can't necessarily tell by the weather (although today happens to be a fine example) or by the coloring leaves on the trees. At BBP fall means engagement sessions galore! Most of the members of our wedding family with dates coming up next spring and summer choose to have their engagement portraits done in the fall, and we are jam packed with yet to be weds. It is always a great time to photograph the giggly planning stages happiness that comes with an engagement session and lots of fun to get caught up with our favorite couples, there is always something new to hear about.

We're still a little cranky about the whole Molly and Jason thing on the Today Show. Of course America--- we all collectively love a great wedding, no doubt about it. So far fairly decent choices have been made for the details leading to the wedding of this couple from California, but lately we've been thinking about the couple themselves. It stands to reason that they are very nice, sweet, upstanding citizens but for Pete's sake they are pushing 40 years old and both have very successful careers, he owns a studio location equipment company and she is a mortgage banker. What happened to giving a chance to some fresh young kids that need the leg up? Why, the whole thing is almost as disconcerting as knowing that Jerry Springer remains on Dancing With The Stars while Vivica Fox was given the pointy toed dancing shoe! We as Americans don't always really think about it, now do we?

Enjoy this great fall day in St. Louis----- who knows those awful 90 day spells of weather might not have left us yet!
