Fountain of Love | Engagement Session on the Country Club Plaza

Ashley and Troy's wedding is scheduled for late 2016 and their theme is "fountain of love". Naturally they wanted to take most of their engagement photos at the infamous Volker Park fountain. Unbeknownst my knowledge, Ashley had some special requests to document their theme and love connection. Here a few images from their session. Stay tune for the wedding images later in the year.

Cheers!

Wedding Day Portraits | Marriott Downtown Kansas City Hotel

I pulled a "spider man" act to get this image of the bride looking out of the window at the Marriott Downtown Kansas City hotel. I was 12 stories up! The things I do for a photo op. Needless, I love what I do :) ◦

Love These Smiles | Mother and Daughter Images by Royal Photography

Here is one of my latest photography experiences with Lindsey and her pride and joy, Stella. Both have a infectious smile that adds so much life to their colorful outfits. Stella, is full of personality and I did my best to capture everything that she wanted to share. Outside of her beautiful smile and intellectual conversation, her personality will warm you heart so much that all you wanna do is hug her. Both were a pleasure to work with. Here a few teaser images from their outdoor photo session.

Brides to Be! Allegro Ballroom Spring Open House

This evening, I attended the Spring open house of the Allegro Ballroom and Event Venue in Overland Park, KS. From what I was told, this building was famous for it's ballroom dancing classes - now brides/grooms can now have their wedding and reception at this spectacular location. It's very spacious, very high ceilings, adequate parking and a wonderful staff. The open house began at 7 pm - 10 pm; however, I only stayed for about 30-min. Brides were flocking through the doors to check out the venue space and meet some great vendors. Kudos to the owner, Tamara Sanders; Mika Jade McGinnis - Events Coordinator and Lani Toomer - Events Director for creating such a beautiful event space. I can only hope to photograph a wedding/reception at this lavish facility.

Vendors for the event were:

• Moxie Catering
• Adorn Cakes
• Ultrapom Event Rental
• Something White Bridal Boutique
• Good Earth Floral Design
• Your KC DJ
• Painted Monkey Studios
• InstaFUN KC Photo Booth
• Victoria Alameida Photography
• White Carpet Bride
• 5K Wedding Walk/Run & Bridal Expo

The event was co-sponsored by KC Weddings.

The address of the event space is: 7105 W. 105th St., Overland Park, KS 66212

Dickerson Family is Expecting | Maternity Session by Royal Photography

This is my latest outdoor maternity session that was taken at Unity Village. I was honored that the parents called upon me again to document this new event in their lives. I've photographed their daughter's senior photo session last year - who is now a college freshmen. This maternity session was a little different for me because I wanted to try a "woodsy" look rather the typical / standard maternity photos. I personally like how they turned out.

Congratulations to the proud and happy parents.
