Congratulations Will & Melanie! If you can believe it – they met at the gym. These images were taken on the foundation of a structure that is being built into something new. I love this location for them as it is the perfect parallel of what is happening in their lives. Thanks for a great shoot guys – and for enduring the crazy winds!

Mel is rocking the Sandra Dee look from Grease:

You know I love drama

A few favorites from Sarah and Jared’s wedding.

Fresh:

I’ve finally updated the engagements gallery! Stop by the website and check it out. (And if you didn’t notice back in the spring, I updated the bridal gallery as well.) Settle down and get ready for a whole lot of awesome to drop on your day. Thanks to all of my fabulous clients for giving me way too many images to chose from!

Ooh don’t you just love spontinaeity? I shot this totally inpromptu photo session while visiting the kids I used to babysit in high school – yowzah! We decided to be 100% au-natural and no one chose outfits or fixed their hair. We just tumbled around the backyard and I shot pics of the kids in their element. These two had the overwhelming honor of my presence many a Friday night back in the day ;). I think we are all the better for it – ha! Without further ado, please meet Morgan and Blake:

Truly brother and sister

I love backyards!

If you are thinking about getting some fresh, delightful new family images for the holidays, September and October are the times to set up a session. This will ensure that all items are received by December 1st. We only take a limited number of families each year; shoot us an email and don’t miss out!

Heather and Steven had such a perfect wedding day! From salon to get away car everything was just as it should be. They were married at the Dallas Arboretum and let it be known that I LOVE to shoot weddings at the arboretum. If you are engaged I highly recommend checking it out. I have shot multiple weddings there, been a bridesmaid while it was freezing cold there, and even assisted at a wedding while it rained there; I still adore it and hope to be at many more weddings in those gardens. Here are some pics:

Grooms are people too! Lately I have been loving taking pics of groomsmen. Everyone just looks so good in those suits.

Get it ladies!

Recipe for a picture perfect wedding: green grass, blue sky, white chairs, and gorgeous flowers.

Just where a bride should be on her wedding day – in a garden

I about died of jealousy when I saw these bridesmaids dresses. They were *of course* from Anthropologie. Someone get me this dress quick!

A portrait:

The longest aisle a bride could ask for, but it was beautiful:

Jerry (my second shooter) was on fire at this wedding! This picture is the greatest:
