Camah and Damen's big day - Beautiful ceremony at Cedar Valley Forest - De Soto, KS - Kansas Wedding Photographers

It's been a month since I had the pleasure of photographing Damen and Camah’s beautiful wedding at Cedar Forest Valley in De Soto, KS. The venue was absolutely stunning—surrounded by lush trees, rolling hills, and an awesome pond that added a touch of magic to the whole setting. From the moment I arrived, everyone was in such great spirits as they got ready. The small, intimate wedding party made the day feel even more special, with so many laughs and so much happiness filling the rooms as the couple prepared for their big moment.

The outdoor ceremony by the pond was truly gorgeous. With their closest friends and family gathered around, Damen and Camah exchanged vows against the backdrop of serene water and towering trees. The atmosphere was filled with love and joy, making it a moment to remember. After the ceremony, the reception was just as memorable. The food was amazing—delicious Italian dishes that everyone enjoyed. The dances were heartfelt, the toasts were touching, and every detail seemed to capture the essence of who Damen and Camah are as a couple.

As the night went on, the celebration continued with more laughter and memorable moments. The couple's exit was beautiful and left everyone smiling. It was an honor to be part of such a wonderful day, capturing the love and happiness that surrounded them. 








 Now for the fun part! Check out these beautiful highlights from their big day!

Miss Taylor was such a joy to photograph! We were blessed to capture multiple sessions with her. She is so photogenic and sweet. I love the images that we were able to make for her. No matter where we went or what we photographed, she looked beautiful! One of my favorite spots was behind the Governor's mansion at Kaw River Park, it was the perfect backdrop for her session! She really shined bright! Also, we photographed her with some horses on the most beautiful property and to see her smile as she interacted was just amazing! These are a few of our favorites from her session. Hope you enjoy! T.H.

How to Prepare for a Photo Session - Topeka's Best Family Portrait Photographers

Image
Select outfits that will make for a timeless portrait. Choose practical clothing items, and keep the location and time of year in mind.  Select clothing items and accessories that are not too distracting or that you will have to adjust often during the session (think long necklaces or ruffled tops on a windy day).  Keep in mind the weather, wind speed, and humidity/chance of rain.  If you have littles, bring them some snacks to help give them incentives during the session.  This can help us to get kids to cooperate and make or break a session.  If it is windy, wear your hair up.  Trimming your bangs/hair slightly to keep them out of your eyes is a great idea, too! Use product like mousse, gel, pomade, and hairspray to tame your mane!    Pick shoes that will be easy to walk in at the location of the session.  For example, high heels are not recommended for sunflower shoots, but would look great in an urban/downtown setting.  Bring an extra jacket or cardigan to th
