Dionne + Khara Wedding | February 14

What better way to get married on the most celebrated love holiday of the year – Valentine’s Day. Dionne’s vows said it all. Her love for Khara aka “Antonio” could be seen by the tears that flowed down her cheeks before and after the wedding.

There wedding and reception was held at the Hillcrest Country Club in South Kansas City.

Dionne was referred to by a Kim and Greg, who’s wedding I photographed in October ’08. When I met Khara and Dionne, they told me that I had a challenge on my hands. He said that he doesn’t smile in any of his pictures. Let’s just say, that proved to be untrue. Khara was ecstatic on his wedding day. He was calm and full of grins.

What’s also funny is that his mother and sisters from S. Carolina gave me a nickname, “peeper”. They had never heard of a male photographer taking pictures of a bride – Dionne – while she’s getting dressed. They thought I wanted to sneak a peak. How hilarious!
