Kim and Sam met in the back of a car during freshman orientation in 2006. They were on the way back from an ice cream social when the driver got lost, so they spent the ride home getting to know one another. They had a contest to see who could text the fastest.

Two years later, Sam proposed. Even though they knew it was love 6 months into their relationship. They were being responsible but love….that came much earlier.

Sam nd Kim watched “Rent” (her fave) and she sang all the songs to him. He laughed and sang along. Sam then took her shopping (always a girl favorite!) and then to dinner. The next day, Sam and Kim walked around a pond at sunset when Sam popped the question. Kim cried and said, “Yes!”

As full time students, when they aren’t studying, they enjoy cuddling up and watching TV together. Soon, they are planning on getting a Great Dane.
Kim also works as a Mary Kay Consultant. If you need some beauty products, let me know and I’ll hook you up with Kim.

Kims’s advice to future brides is this: “Don’t stress about the small details of the day. Spend time developing and building a strong foundation for your marriage. When the wedding is over, that’s what you will have! Try and soak up the day. Appreciate the people that came to see you on your wedding day.”

Merideth is a professional twirler. How many people can say that? But not just that. She’s also the triple threat….a beautiful, super brilliant girl, who everyone adores.

She’s currently a medical student studying at the Texas Tech University at Health Sciences Center School of Pharmacy. Mark, her now husband is a mechanical engineer for Rockwell Collins.

They met when they were both part of the marching band for the Pride of Oklahoma. He was on the drum line, and she was the featured twirler. They dated for three years and in Oct 2008 he took her into the midst of the stadium which was normally a no no. He bent down on one knee and in the middle of Owen Field, where they had worked together so often, and he asked her to marry him.

They are currently honeymooning on the island of Kauia, where they are enjoying among other things, outdoor stuff and adventures which are two of their favorite things to do together.

And a very special thanks to Lyncca Harvey of www.Lyncca.com for helping us out on yet another massive wedding. (Shown here with Lighting Guru, and my fabulous husband, Mike)

Ok, first of all I will confess that I totally adore Linda. She’s a Gynecologic Surgeon and she’s about the most fantastic person ever. Her husband is a grad from SMU, in a very elite group of media marketers.
Anyhoo, Linda asked me to come back and take more photos of her for her website. I was thrilled. This gal is just the sweetest thing ever, and so is her now hubby.

So this was a Jewish/Interfaith wedding, and I can tell you that I loved the whole thing. Again, we were not able to take photos during the ceremony, but the videographers were able to do so, so I’m really happy for them both.

Linda went out of her way to be super supportive and cooperative as did Jeremy.

Dress by Neiman Marcus Black Label Couture. All the bridesmaids dresses were from Jessica Johnson Couture.

The Band was “Icehouse”.
The Video was by Turquoise

Venue for all: Fort Worth Club. We love working with them!

Thanks again to JD Cooper of JD Cooper photography for helping us out. This wedding was MASSIVE and you were great. Love Ya!

Linda, I’ll be shooting photos for your website in a few weeks. Can’t wait to see you again. Love you guys!
Here is a bit of what we captured that day

Jessica is a cutie. She is so sweet and so fun to work with. If I smiled as much as she does, my jaws would hurt. Stephen has the prettiest red hair and is clearly dearly in love with Miss Jessy.

A cute (and sweet thing) she did, was to ask me if she could use our photos on her facebook page. I thought it was cool that she asked, because some photographers will let you and some will not.

Just for the record….we do, so enjoy!

Also, I wanted to give a big thanks to Lynnca Harvey of Lyncca Harvey Photography for helping us out on this one.

Wow, what a beautiful couple, both inside and out. She’s Miss (or now Mrs.) Hawaiian Tropic. He was one of only 10 people in the US to be chosen for SMU’s advanced business school.

She wore an amazing dress and after the ceremony charged from a veil to a fastinator. (I think those are sooooo classy!)

The reception followed at the McKinney Cotton Mill, and every part of it was absolutely fantastic. The Emerald City band totally brought the house down. This is the second time I’ve worked with them, and they are simply AWESOME.

Darla Lovett and the team at McKinney Cotton mill also did an outstanding job.

Tony and Christina are just returning from their amazing honeymoon in the British Virgin Islands.

Congrats Tony and Christina!!!!!!!

Special thanks to JD Cooper of JD Cooper Photography for helping us out on yet another massive wedding. We love you JD!

What a gorgeous couple, and what a fun evening. Hugs and smooches to you both!

Jenn and Norwood are a great couple, and also very traditional in the way they view their wedding photography.

Below are some photos from their wedding day.

Candis and Glenn own a lovely peice of land in Royce City. They have a small stocktank, enough room to have horses, and lots of outdoor fun. So naturally, they wanted to have thier outdoor wedding in the place they both loved more than anyplace on earth.

The weather had been unseasonably warm and pretty much perfect as their wedding day approached. But you know how Texas is….
It POURED for two solid days right before their wedding. The pretty little spot they had picked out in the backyard to hold their ceremony was flooded.

The day of their wedding, the rain finally stopped, but the only place to dry up enough to have a ceremony, was in their front yard….so they moved all the stuff to the front. And then the winds started howling with gusts up to 65 mph, and the temperatures dropped into the 50s. But they were not to be deterred. This was THIER day, AND their favorite place on Earth, and by God, they were going to have their wedding as planned.

And ya know what? I think it turned out pretty fab!

April descibes she and David as “Media Driven”. And they are. April is a artist, poetry fan and photography buff, and David is a film maker. They certainly knew exactly what they wanted in way of photography, and they expected the highest standards. That is why I was so honored when they chose us to do their wedding photography.

They were married at the Armstong Browning Library in Waco. This held special meaning not only because it’s a beautiful place, but because it was named after the poet Elizabeth Barret Browning. The ceremony was gorgeous, and April’s father made such a lovely and touching speech to the couple.

After the ceremony, we all went to the Palladium in downtown Waco. The place is pretty darn cool. It’s all exposed bricks and beams. April had decorated in all things “Love Birds” in hues of Tiffany blue. The table settings echoed the poetry theme using table cards named after famous poets. April also included a signature margarita with the guests greatly enjoyed.
