Meet the McKedy's

Cara (Davidson) McKedy and I met through a mutual friend, Darbi (Gibson) Hebrank. In fact, we were both bridesmaids in Darbi's wedding back in June 2007. I met Cody shortly after meeting Cara and I thought they were an adorable couple — always smiling at each other whether they were a foot apart or across the room from each other.

I was excited and honored when Cara and Cody asked if I would tape their wedding highlight video. They had a beautiful ceremony and reception at the Whitmoor Country Club in St. Charles. It was my first video wedding shoot when the bride and groom met and took photos before the ceremony — this gave the bride and groom lots of time to get priceless photos and memories together before exchanging their vows. Check out all the locations Cara and Cody and their wedding party went to in their photography session in their wedding highlight video below.

This was also my first interaction with photographer Clary Pfeiffer (who was given rave reviews by Darbi). Clary takes absolutely amazing photos whose images seem to just wrap you up in the moment the shot was taken. You feel like you were there with the bride in groom while browsing through their photos.

I really enjoyed capturing Cara and Cody's day for them and putting together their wedding highlight video. Cara and Cody were a dream couple to work with, their wedding party provided me with tons of laughs throughout the day, and with the help of my lovely assistant Steven (my new fiance'), I was able to create something Cara and Cody will have and be able to share for a lifetime.
