I'm Jaimie Nicole Krause -- a documentary-style St. Louis Wedding Photographer, and these are (in my opinion) the best wedding venues in St. Louis. They photograph spectacularly and have wonderful service!

Destination weddings are becoming more and more common. The special thing about them is that there's not as much of a pressure in looking so formal. Destination weddings are all about feeling pretty, light and dainty. So here goes...

Elopements are here to stay and there is so much to love about them. What I love most as a photographer is seeing couples taking back the power on their day and doing what they want to do. So, I have put together this list of stellar dresses that are elopement worthy AND $500 & under!

Start here! Whether you're getting married, moving in together, or just want to refresh your everyday home essentials, this list is full of timeless, stylish, and practical finds. From elevated kitchenware to cozy home upgrades and thoughtful entertaining pieces, these are registry-worthy picks you’ll actually use (and love for years). Even if you're not tying the knot, it's a great place to find gift inspiration for a loved one—or treat yourself to a little upgrade.

I've rounded up the most gorgeous bridesmaid dresses in every color — from timeless black to sunny yellow! Whether you're dreaming of soft pastels or bold hues, I hope you find the perfect dresses to make your bridal party shine.

A running list of the prettiest wedding guest dresses I find — the unique cuts, chic silhouettes, and those “where did you get that?” pieces that always photograph beautifully. Plus the dresses that no one else will be wearing at the event :) Whether it’s a black-tie night, a garden ceremony, or something in between, these are the dresses I’d wear myself (and would want someone to send me if I needed inspo). Updated constantly with the standout, special ones. 💌

Everything I actually use & love from my wedding registry. PLUS the things I bought myself—but WISH I would have put on my wedding registry. Let’s go!

But celebrating graduation is a must today, whether your kids are graduating from preschool, elementary or college/university.

First you find out your size 2 pants size is a size 8 dress, then you find out it’s pretty much not possible to spend less than 3 grand if you don’t want to look like everyone else. Wedding dress shopping has been crazy, so I temporarily ignored the price tags and here’s some of my favorite inspo (I did not buy these)

Look, I’ve been to my fair share of weddings—some in vineyards, some in Vegas chapels, one in a barn that smelled faintly of hay and regret. And every single time, the same question pops up: “What on earth do I wear?” This isn’t some stiff, rule-heavy manual. It’s a friendly, no-BS roundup of dresses that actually work—whether you’re dealing with a “cocktail” invite that means nothing, a destination wedding in July, or your cousin’s ultra-formal church ceremony.
