We are hopeless romantics & lake lovers who find great joy in creating and documenting connection and beauty wherever we go.
We're The Helgesons and we are so happy you're here. This blog is a journal about our lives, travels, and photography. Stay a while and say hello!
John x Christy met in College one night in a car outside a bar. Her friend was dating his roommate and John was their driver for the night. They talked and watched a little Fresh Prince but it wasn’t until a few weeks later when their mutual friends were playing matchmaker and inviting them both to attend a party. From then on they became inseparable.
Kate & Eric had a romantic & elegant intimate Wedding at the 9th Street Abbey in Soulard, a downtown St. Louis, Missouri District filled with culture and 1904 World’s Fair Architecture. Nestled in the heart of Soulard is the Abbey, which converts from ceremony to reception venue and features their own caterer Patty Long, as well patio & garden that was beautiful as well as quiet for Eric & Kate’s first photos as husband & wife.
