Dallas Stars Photography

admin — Fri, 02 Jan 2009 19:18:39 +0000

As many of you know, Andrew and I have been working with the Dallas Stars this year and loving every minute of it. Shooting sports has always been fun for me and it’s not that much unlike shooting weddings in that you really have to anticipate the moment before it happens and be ready to capture the shot. Anyway, I thought I would post a few of my early season favorites…

And one Andrew took of me in action…

Rachel and Dan’s Engagement Session!

Before I headed to Florida, I shot Rachel and Dan’s engagement session in Deep Ellum. I cannot wait for their wedding next year as they are both so much fun and so photogenic! They are even both big OU fans! In fact, Rachel was on the OU Cheer Team a while back! Anyway, here are a few of my favorites from the session…

A great background…

HOT!!! I also love the fall colors in the second photo.

A fun shot…

Red is my favorite color!

We found a cool little park as well…

Tammy and Jeremy’s Wedding!

admin — Fri, 05 Dec 2008 10:46:43 +0000

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…

Here is Jeremy and company checking out the BIG OU game during the reception!

And Tammy showing off her dance moves!

The exit…

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

Shannon and Brendan’s Wedding!

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…

I had a chance to to catch up with Mike and the new team from WHCC(The WORLD’s best photo lab!) here in Dallas last week! I am VERY excited about some new things that we have planned with WHCC for my products as well as future seminars, etc…(Stay tuned!)

I also had the chance to check out their new private jet! How cool is this thing!!! I can’t wait to fly in it soon as it sure beats the heck out of flying commercial these days!! The pilots are really cool guys too(even though they are Packer fans), but I’ll forgive them!

Here are a few quick shots…
