Mary + Tom's wedding slideshow

Mary and Tom were married last weekend during a lovely ceremony at the Church of the Resurrection in Wichita. Following a brief portrait session afterward, the newlyweds took a limo to their reception at the Petroleum Club. I don't know what it is about the Petroleum Club, but some of our best couples choose to have their reception there! It's an elegant location on the top floor of the Westar Energy building at Douglas and Broadway in downtown Wichita. Karen and I were both very excited when we learned Mary and Tom would be partying there with their friends and we weren't disappointed! Thanks again, Mary and Tom, for inviting us to photograph your wedding. We had a great time!

Karen + Erik's wedding slideshow

It's been a long time in the making but Karen and Erik's wedding slideshow is finally finished. Please CLICK HERE to see it.

You might notice that this project is somewhat different than our past efforts mainly because Karen set aside three hours on her wedding day for romantic portraits! After zipping through the formals and the ceremony, we headed off to a nice pasture just outside of town and then to a downtown alley near my favorite Wichita reception site: The Petroleum Club. As we neared the time for the grand entrance, Karen agreed to be just a few minutes late so that we could continue the portrait shoot. The lengthy photo shoot was possible because Karen and Erik agreed to see each other before the ceremony.

As we tell all of our brides, you have to set priorities for your wedding day. For some, it may be the dress, a particular wedding location, a certain caterer or any of the things that go into throwing the biggest party of your life. For Karen, it was definitely photography. But, as the founder of Heartland Photography, would you expect anything less? -Mike

Darcy and Kent's wedding slideshow

As promised, I put the final touches on Darcy and Kent's wedding slideshow this morning. I hope they enjoy reliving their wedding day in the coming months as much as I have in the past few days! Click here to see the show. Make sure you have a speedy Internet connection and your sound turned up.

Darcy and Kent's slideshow also introduces a few new features. Most noticably, we've changed the color scheme to match our web site. In the bottom right corner you'll notice a couple of new buttons. One allows you to view all of the photographs in a gallery format. Another allows you the option of purchasing the show on DVD. This has been something that many of our clients have asked about in the past and I'll be working in the next couple of weeks upgrading all of our previous slideshows to match this new format. -Mike

Darcy and Kent's wedding

Darcy and Kent were married Friday in a light-hearted but touching ceremony at Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church followed by a fun trolley ride to an elegant reception at The Petroleum Club. But prior to Darcy walking down the aisle, she hid behind her father, Gene, so Kent wouldn't see her.


We finished the group formals ahead of schedule and were able to make a stop in Old Town for some portraits.


The reception, which provided sparkling views of the city, was fun and fabulous! Thanks for inviting us share in your special day! Be looking for a slideshow by the end of the week. -Mike
