Last week, we had a great wedding to officially end our wedding season!  Andrew, Amy, and I  really enjoyed working with Tammy and Jeremy as they are so easy to photograph!  The wedding and reception took place at Hackberry Country Club in Las Colinas and everything looked amazing!  I knew it would be a great wedding when I found out that almost everyone in attendance were SOONER fans!!  Here are a few highlights of the day…

Tammy’s gorgeous dress, veil, and shoes…

It is always great when couples decide to see each other for a “private” moment before the ceremony as it ensures that the guests are not waiting long after the ceremony for photos and the reception can get started right away!  I love their expressions as they see each other for the first time!

What a CUTE family photo as well as just Tammy and Jeremy…

A fun one followed by a sexy one!

And a fun one of the whole wedding party…

Tammy tears up on her way down the aisle…

A great moment during the ceremony…

How cute is this!!

The kiss…

I JUST HAD to post this one as the programs say “GO SOONERS!!”  How cool is that!!!

The fabulous details…

The first dance and an artistic shot using Tammy’s bouquet…

And Tammy showing off her dance moves!

The exit…

Congratulations again guys!  I hope Cabo was a blast!!

I photographed Shannon and Brendan’s fun wedding last week and it was a thorough joy to shoot! These guys booked me almost 2 Years ago after I shot Lacey and Mike’s wedding and I counted down the days as I knew it would be a great wedding!!

The wedding took place at the gorgeous St. Thomas Aquinas and the reception at the Hilton Park Cities. DJ Paul Andrews had the party going all night and we really enjoyed working with him! Here are a few of my faves from the day…

I liked this shot of the dress with Shannon in the frame as well…

We had the pleasure of shooting Ann and Ray’s wedding last weekend at the Omni Mandalay Hotel in Las Colinas and we had a wonderful time with everyone!

WOW! I had an awesome time in Portland last weekend!! I want to thank everyone for their wonderful hospitality and helpfulness!! Chelsea’s mom is also a wedding photographer, so NO PRESSURE, right? Seriously, I am always honored when other photographers want me to photograph them and their family. It’s also a lot of fun as photographers UNDERSTAND the need to have quality time in order to create some amazing images. I got to play in Downtown Portland with Curtis and Chelsea for a couple of hours on the wedding day and we REALLY got some cool stuff!

It was also great meeting up with old friends as well as getting to know new ones! I particularly want to thank Candy, Joe, Curtis, Chelsea, Teresa, Bev, Dan and Whitney, Evrim, Jenny, and Fred for making the trip so much fun!!

A special thanks to Whitney from Bliss Studio for second shooting with me! Everyone was wonderful to work with and we got some AMAZING shots!! Here are a few highlights…

Chelsea’s GORGEOUS dress and flowers!

Congratulations again Curtis and Chelsea!! I hope you are having a BLAST in Cabo!!

Ok, I am SUPER excited about this post as not only did we have an incredible wedding on Saturday with Holly and Zach, but we also had the chance to debut our Same Day Edit Video for everyone at the reception!!(The reactions we got from everyone there were simply AMAZING!!) We will be offering this VERY unique service at select weddings in 2009! ONLY A FEW people in the whole country even have the capability to do this, so feel free to inquire about it if you want to really impress your guests at your reception!

Here is what we showed everyone in HIGH DEFINITION at the reception!

Click HERE for full HD version

In addition to the gorgeous video, we also captured some beautiful photos! The ceremony was held at the Robert Carr Chapel in Fort Worth with the reception at the beautiful Colonial Country Club.(Julie and her staff did an EXCELLENT job of making sure everything went perfectly!)

The wonderful decor was done by Bloomtown and the band was Random Axis(One of my favorites to work with!)

Here are just a few highlights of the day that we captured…

Arias and Adeola found me from all the way in California and we never got to meet until a couple of days before the wedding! I am so honored that they flew me all the way to Tobago to capture their big day as they were both awesome to work and hang around with all week! Both families were great and just a total joy to be near! The wedding took place at the GORGEOUS Villas at Stonehaven in Tobago and I am already looking forward to going back there!!

Alycia helped me out and we really got some great shots! Here are a few highlights from Tobago that we captured!

Adeola’s BEAUTIFUL dress and bouquet!

Before I left for Tobago, I shot Wes and Michelle’s gorgeous wedding and simply didn’t get a chance to blog about it yet.  The ceremony took place at St. Ann’s in Coppell with the reception at the Gleneagles Country Club in Plano!  Cuvee provided the reception entertainment and the place was jamming all night long! We all had a fantastic time and I can’t wait to edit the whole wedding soon!  Here are a few favorites from the day…

Michelle’s GORGEOUS shoes and dress!

Michelle getting her hair done…

Putting on the dress and a cool reflection!

I love this shot of the flowergirl getting ready while Michelle watches! I also think lip shots are some of my favorite to capture!

We had another FABULOUS wedding a few weeks ago as Amanda and Nick tied the knot at the beautiful Melrose Hotel in Dallas. Jacqueline and her staff at the Melrose made sure that everything went well and I am definitely looking forward to working with her again!

The decor was done by the wonderful Stacey at the Wildflower(I ALWAYS look forward to working with her because I KNOW that I am going to get some cool decor shots!), and the lovely cakes by Panini Bakery. Andy Austin was the DJ and as usual the party rocked on all night!

My staff and I had a blast shooting the wedding as you can see from some of these highlights from the day…

Congratulations again Amanda and Nick!!

MY FIRST NEW BLOG POST!!

Hieu and William are simply one of my favorite couples that I have ever photographed! They are so much fun and were so accomodating to me and my team! The ceremony took place at the St. Maria Goretti Catholic Church in Arlington followed by a GORGEOUS reception at the Worthington in downtown Fort Worth. Here are a few highlights from the day!
