Lisa and Brandon are married :)

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of photographing Lisa and Brandon's wonderful wedding at Las Colinas Country Club. They are pretty amazing...I'm just saying. Their day was full of laughter, fun and lots of surprises. Here are the highlights.
She got ready at her parents house and they had the dress they bright her home from the hospital in when she was born framed on the wall. I just had to put her veil with it.
Her shoes
Beautiful dress and jewelry
His tux and shoes.
The flowers. Her mom made the bouquets so they were in the fridge. Fun!
Lisa and her sister Becca get their hair done.
 Cute expressions.
Mom looking in as Lisa checks out her bouquet.
 So excited to get into the dress.
 Love all the hands helping.
 High-five her maid of honor.
 Dad puts her jewelry on.
 One they got to the venue they exchanged gifts. She got him a swiss army knife from his swiss army wife :)
 SHe had to break the ribbons to get into hers.
He had a star named after her!
Then they had a moment where they held hands separated by a door since they didn't want to see each other before the ceremony.
 A sweet family moment when they skyped with some family who could not attend.
 The ceremony :)
 They finally see each other.
 So sweet.
 She is so happy.
 I love ceremonies filled with laughter and smiles.
 The kiss.
Just after the kiss. Super fun! 
Leaving the ceremony. 
 The bridesmaids all wore shoes that matched their different colored bouquets.
 Aren't they gorgeous?
 and the guys are pretty handsome too :)
 The entire wedding party.
Had so much fun.
 Superheroes.
The reception.
The cakes were amazing.
A few details. 
The grand entrance.
 First dance.
 Father/daughter dance was a fun surprise and mother/son dance was super sweet. 
 Time for some toasts
And the cake.
 They danced all night.
Some alone time.
 Garter and bouquet toss.
 and a beautiful bubble exit.
May 26. What a wonderful day.
Congratualtions Lisa and Brandon!

Kaylee + Chase = Happily Ever After

This evening I had the pleasure of photographing Kaylee and Chase's wedding at The Orchard in Azle. It was perfect. I'm downloading the images right now and I just wanted to share a little sneak peek at the photos we took after the wedding at the hotel. The Omni in Fort Worth is a gorgeous hotel and Kaylee asked me if I would come back with them and take a few photos...of course! When she told me they wanted to jump on the bed in wedding attire...I was all in. :) Kaylee and Chase, YOU ROCK! I love, love LOVE the photos in your room.
Jumping!
They are so sweet. I love them.
 Gorgeous.
Congratulations Kaylee and Chase! I hope you have a wonderful honeymoon and I'll get the rest of your photos edited soon. You were amazing today :)

Cruising

Ahh...Scrapbooking. I so love scrapbooking and during the summer I have more time to play with pages :) It's been hard to find the time the last few months to just scrap for fun but now that school is out I'll have some free time to be creative.

Lucky me, Mel decided that she needed a Creative Team again and she asked me to join. Woo Hoo. I love Mel, she's a wedding photographer too. Her first kit is called Cruising and it was perfect for me. I have folders and folders of digital files from the cruises we have taken. If you scrapbook and you need a vacation kit that not too kid oriented, which is what I always need, this one is fabulous. Check it out at My Memories and check out Mel's blog for a freebie :)

The Bryant Family

A few weeks ago I got to spend the evening with one of my favorite families. I photographed Rachel and Jason's wedding a year ago and they wanted to take some family portraits now that they are all one amazing family :) We went to a park in Forth Worth that might just be by new favorite place to shoot and had some fun.
 Mikaela, Malia, Keylee, and Lukas - close up!
And a second set shot a little looser. I love the colors in these photos.
The whole family.
Something different. I like it.
 The kids
 The parents
 The family that plays together...has so much fun!
 See...I told you they were fun :) 
 One last one in the grass. I'm glad you braved the stickers and wind because this photo is so beautiful :) You guys rock!
I hope you love your photos!
