ROOTED IN memory
& TOLD IN light

If you’re searching for a historic, one-of-a-kind wedding venue in Springfield, Missouri, let me introduce you to the crown jewel of the Ozarks wedding scene: Haseltine Estate. I have had the absolute privilege of photographing weddings here multiple times, and every single time I pull up to that 1897 mansion, I fall in love with it all over again. There is truly nothing else like it — not in Springfield, not in Southwest Missouri, and honestly, not for hundreds of miles in any direction.

Today I’m giving you the full photographer’s inside look at Haseltine Estate — what makes it so special, what to expect on your wedding day, and why this venue photographs unlike anywhere else I’ve ever worked.

If you’re searching for a modern, one-of-a-kind wedding venue near Branson, Missouri, The Atrium in Merriam Woods might just be the place you’ve been dreaming of. As a wedding photographer who has had the joy of working at beautiful venues across the Ozarks, I can tell you — The Atrium is a space that truly photographs beautifully. Today I’m pulling back the curtain on everything you need to know about this gem of a venue, from what makes it so special to how to capture every stunning moment on your wedding day.
