month: October 2009




I must say that I just LOVED this wedding as Teresa and Brian were one of the coolest couples that I have ever photographed!  Not to mention, Teresa really ROCKED out that Birdcage Veil!!  I wish more brides would wear those as they are simply stunning!!(Hint, Hint!)

The ceremony took place at the Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Dallas with the reception at the Magnolia Hotel’s Pegasus Ballroom.  Teresa’s makeup was done by Amanda Medina and Robert Habeeb of Avalon Salon did her hair!

A Special thanks goes out to the wonderful Jessica Smith and her staff at the Magnolia Hotel  and to coordinator Jennifer Schlankey  for making sure that everything went smoothly throughout the day!  The beautiful flowers were done by Dr. Delphinium and they always do a great job!

Me and my team had a ton of great shots, but here are just a few highlights from the day…

Teresa and her GORGEOUS dress and some details…

So we were walking around Deep Ellum and this guy playing keyboard started serenading Teresa and Brian!  So, naturally they did a little dance and dip while he played.

I shot Liz and Luc’s engagement session in Fort worth a few weeks ago and thought I would post some on my blog.  We had a great session and got some really fun shots as they are an easy couple to photograph!  Here are a few highlights!

GREAT looking couple!

I also just photographed these guys in a bridal session and we got some really cool stuff!  I’ll be photographing their wedding in New Orleans next month and I can’t wait!   Stay tuned for much more from them!





I am slowly but surely getting caught up and have tons of great stuff to blog!  I shot Simone and Reggie’s wedding a couple of weeks ago in Dallas and we got some amazing photos despite the very rainy weather!  Both Simone and Reggie have been absolute joys to work with and the wedding was simply beautiful!  Simone even didn’t feel to well after the ceremony, but you can’t tell in the photos for sure!  Here are some of my favorites…

Alycia and I had the chance to see U2 at the Dallas Cowboys Stadium on Monday night and we had the BEST time!  We were lucky enough to get our hands on some VIP tickets which gave us access to free food and drinks as well as some pretty cool U2 Swag prior to the concert!  I also brought my camera along for the concert and took a few shots!   Here are just a few I thought were cool…

Alycia and I hanging out before the concert and the cool U2 VIP Leather gift bags we got…

I love this shot of BONO that I got(I couldn’t pose him any better!)…

The video screen they had was cool, but I think they still should have incorporated the ENORMOUS one at the Cowboys Stadium!

It was a great show and I’m glad we went!  OK, now I have to get back to work and blog a couple of cool weddings that I have been working on!





We got the chance to photograph the GORGEOUS wedding of Andy and Becca a couple of weeks ago and we had a great time with everyone!  Andy and Becca looked absolutely stunning and Sharon Coston did her usual FANTASTIC job of making sure that everything was coordinated to perfection!!  The ceremony took place at Perkins Chapel on the SMU campus and the reception at the Westin Stonebriar Hotel.  Fete Des Fleur did their usual wonderful job with the decor and Switch Lighting did the very impressive light display!  Cuvee(one of my favorite bands) kept the party going all night as well!

Here are some of my favorites from the day that we captured…

Becca’s awesome dress and shoes…

I shot Teresa and Brian’s engagement session a couple of weeks ago and I had a total blast!  I really think that their wedding will be one of my favorites this year as they have some cool things planned!  As you can see, they are a super hot and fun couple!  Here are a few of my faves from the session…
