Heather and Blaine’s Wedding at the Warwick Melrose Hotel!

Last week, my good friend Jeremy and I photographed the wonderful wedding of Heather and Blaine at the Warwick Melrose Hotel in Dallas.  The ceremony was on the second floor balcony with the reception in the ballroom on the first floor.  Bethany and her staff at the Melrose made sure that the whole day went as planned!(I can't wait to work with her again!). 

It was good to also work with my good friends Anita Haar(Hair/Makeup) and Lauren Kitchens(the beautiful cakes) as well!  It was my first time to work with Jackie Vail of the Wedding Vail and she did a fabulous job!!(Hopefully we can work together again soon!)

Heather and Blaine looked amazing and are truly one of the nicest couples I have ever worked with!!  We got a ton of great shots as well, so here are a few highlights…

Melissa and Brian’s Wedding at Marty Leonard Chapel

A couple of weeks ago, I had the chance to photograph a very intimate wedding in Fort Worth with my buddy Jeremy Gilliam.  Brian and Melissa are from Houston and got married in Fort Worth with the ceremony at the Marty Leonard Chapel and the reception at the Van Cliburn Recital Hall.  Despite the rain near the end, it was a gorgeous day and we captured some great moments!   It was also great to work with our buddy Susie Gray Uphues again! Here are some highlights…

This is a great idea for you brides out there.(Hint Hint).  Love the custom hanger!  Much better than some provided by the dress shops!
