Jennifer and Jeffrey’s Wedding!

Before I left for Anguilla, I shot Jennifer and Jeffrey’s wedding last week.  It was a gorgeous wedding and there were details everywhere!   Both Jennifer and Jeffrey looked amazing and we all had a fabulous time throughout the day.  It was our first time working with Kimberly of Exquisite Soiree and she did a fabulous job with all of the details!

The ceremony took place at Perkin’s Chapel on the SMU campus and the reception took place at the Empire Room.  Fete Des Fleurs as usual out did themselves with the decor as you can see!  It was also great to see our friend Elvis from Elvision again!

Here are a few highlights from our team…

Courtney and Ben’s Wedding!

We shot the wonderful wedding of Courtney and Ben last week and had a wonderful time with everyone!  The ceremony took place at the Marty Leonard Chapel in Fort Worth with the reception at the Worthington downtown.  It was also great as I got a chance to work with one of my good friends and AMAZING florist Tami Winn and her A Magic Moment Events Crew!

Courtney and Ben looked stunning and very much in love and we captured some truly wonderful moments!!  Here are just a few of the highlights that Sharon, Jerry, and myself caught…

OK, storytime… I have this song on my website entitled “Daddy” by Kendall Payne.  Well, Ben decided to surprise Courtney and fly in Kendall from Los Angeles to sing at the wedding!!  Kendall sang “Daddy” right before Courtney and her dad walked down the aisle!!  I swear there wasn’t a dry eye in the church!  So, I put together a little collage…
