Boone County Courthouse - Columbia, MO - February 9th, 2024


This day was SO. DANG. FUN. Cody & Gabrielle had a sweet courthouse elopement with their families, then we spent the next hour running around downtown Columbia. I LOVED getting to play around with architecture & angles in the city, and these two certainly made my job easy! There are few things I find more exciting than a session with a couple who so clearly adores each other, and this day certainly lived up to (and exceeded!) any expectations I had as to how magical a courthouse elopement could be.
