Matt and Aubrey's Downtown Dallas Wedding

Last fall, before I had my baby boy, I was honored to photograph Matt and Aubrey's wedding day at the Magnolia Hotel in downtown Dallas.  My husband was a groomsmen and also my luggage handler for the day, since I was VERY pregnant at that point.  The reception was in the newly renovated Pegasus Room across the street from the Magnolia Hotel, in the Power and Light building.  The chandelier is my current favorite thing in Dallas!  They did an incredible job on this venue.  It is is simply stunning and photographs like a dream!  I was fortunate enough to have my good friend and colleague, Pam Peck as my associate photographer on this wedding and have included some of her amazing images in this gallery.  Enjoy!

Tori and Brandon's Fort Worth Wedding

I had the pleasure of capturing the wedding day of Tori and Brandon last fall.  I met the couple because Tori's grandparents are friends of my parents and have known me since I was about 10 years old.  I was so excited to be chosen to capture their wedding day!  The wedding ceremony was at one of my favorite chapels in Fort Worth, The Marty Leonard Chapel.  I love the architecture on the inside and the front doors are gorgeous!  The Reception was at the Golf Club at Fossil Creek.  The rustic chandeliers in the reception venue were stunning alongside the flower arrangements on the head table.  I am a big fan of colorful wedding flowers and these did not disappoint!  Check out all the other gorgeous details of this stylish Fort Worth wedding....

Katie and Shawn's White Rock Lake engagement session

Check out my latest engagement portrait session at White Rock Lake!  Katie and Shawn are just the cutest couple and we had so much fun hanging out with their doggies at the lake for this stunning portrait session.  

I am so excited to photograph their wedding in November!  As a wedding photographer, I offer an engagement session to all of my wedding photography clients so that we have a chance to work together before the wedding day.  It helps me to get a feel for what poses work best for them, as well as giving the couple an opportunity to get accustomed to my posing style.  The best part is that we get to know each other a little better and it makes things go much smoother on the wedding day when you have had a chance to work together before.  

Take a look at this awesome session and tell me what you think in the comments!

John And Amy's Frisco Heritage Center Wedding

I know it's been a while since I have posted a blog, but I am back!  I have been busy shooting weddings almost every weekend this summer and am thrilled to be so busy, but it has left me with little time for blogging.  One of the many wonderful weddings I was tasked to capture this summer was Amy and John's wedding at Frisco Heritage Center in Frisco, TX.  I met Amy and John through a mutual friend when he referred them to me for their wedding photography.  We met and discussed their wedding day and I learned that this wedding was more than just 2 people coming together in love, it was about a great big family coming together through marriage.  Both John and Amy had children of their own who were going to be their wedding party!  Coming from a blended family myself, this made me very excited to be a part of this beautiful wedding!  Once the wedding day was upon us, I quickly realized that no one was more excited about this day than the bride and groom.  John and Amy were absolutely giddy with love and excitement for their marriage and it was very easy to photograph such happy people!  They really made my job so easy and I loved every moment of their wedding day.  Have a look for yourself and be sure to let me know what you think in the comments!

Alexis and Amy's Fort Worth Wedding

I had the pleasure of photographing this gorgeous wedding for George Street Photo And Video last spring.  Alexis and Amy were so much fun to work with.  The wedding and reception were at the outdoor venue space at The Worthington Renaissance hotel in Fort Worth, TX.   The venue was gorgeous and I had a blast taking their entire bridal party out to Sundance Square for photos after the wedding ceremony! Everything about this wedding was gorgeous right down to the last detail.  My favorite thing about the day was learning that most of the ladies in the bridal party were also couples!  It made for a fun day, full of love...

Since my least favorite part about writing a blog, is having to write a blog, I will let the photos tell their story:  

Lee-Taylor and Riley's Black Tie Wedding

Lee-Taylor and Riley were married on a gorgeous January day in Fort Worth, TX.  Their wedding was amazing!  The wedding ceremony took place at University Christian Church by the TCU Campus.  I have photographed several weddings at this church and I always love it.  They have very particular guidelines for wedding photographers. We are instructed to shoot the entire ceremony from the back balcony which seems to discourage some, but if you come here prepared with a long and fast lens, you can capture some amazing vantage points from that balcony!  It is absolutely breathtaking.   My favorite thing about photographing this wedding was how snazzy everyone looked!  It was black tie and these wedding guests BROUGHT it!!  Everyone looked so glamorous.  It sure did make my job easy!  The reception was held at River Crest Country Club in Fort Worth, TX.  As soon as the bride and groom entered, the party was on!  Live band, delicious food, and a ton of fun guests dancing the night away!  The groom even got on stage and did 2 numbers with the band.  It was pretty epic!  At the bottom of the post, I have included a digital copy of the wedding album so you can see how the images all came together to tell the story of their special day.
