couldn’t help but sharing my new favorite picture of my nephew. sooo adorable!

the nassar’s, married.
June 3, 2009
last saturday’s wedding was great, full of energy and tons of laughs. brittany and richard didn’t want to spend hours taking pictures the day of their wedding, so portraits were kept to a minimum. i also second shot this wedding, which allowed for more candid photos, which i love. here are some of my favorites.

i couldn’t decide which picture of the ring bearer to put up, so i opted for both…



the couple’s 4-month-old daughter. isn’t she beautiful?

the swarthout’s, married.
June 1, 2009
tessa and bobby were married on may 23rd in a beautiful, tennessee pasture on bobby’s grandfather’s property. it was beautiful and natural. though the rain threatened, it held off and allowed them to have the outdoor ceremony as planned surrounded by family and friends. i helped second shoot this wedding and it was incredibly fun because i was able to focus on the moments that sometimes can get missed when the hustle and bustle of the wedding day start. here are some of my favorites…









brynlee, baby pictures.
May 12, 2009
everyone, please meet brynlee. she is six months old and as cute as could be. i knew it was going to be a fun hour as soon as i walked in and she smiled at me for no reason. she is currently at the sitting-up stage, and is as precious as could be. i look forward to seeing her and her mom more later this year.









brynlee is teething. really bad. please notice all the drool in this next picture. i love it.


the hipp’s, married.

i knew the day i took rachel and ryan’s engagement pictures their wedding day would be a blast, and it sure was. i loved how every few minutes she would start waving her hands with jittery excitement, sometimes with a little dance in there and then the next she was ever so calm. the day was perfect. everything ran seemlessly. rachel and ryan as well as their family’s are the kind of people everyone need in their life: they are fun, silly and love to laugh. it was a great day! i hope you two have a great time in north carolina!















rachel’s bridal portraits.
May 9, 2009
the thing i love about rachel is that she doesn’t even know how beautiful she really is. every picture of her was great, whether she smiled or not. it made it hard for me to choose a few for the blog. even though the rain stopped us a few minutes short, we didn’t need the extra time alotted. i’ll stop talking so you can start looking.
one of my favorite images ever:

as you are already aware, my nephew is the most beautiful baby ever, or at least i think so. this past week, i kept him for my sister and brother-in-law. i had as much fun as one could have with a six week old baby. we smiled, laughed, coo’ed and cuddled. it was so much fun and i felt so special to have had the privilegez to do so. what can i say, i love the little guy, but don’t just take my word for it…check him out.



jana & gene, married.
April 26, 2009
as jana arrived at the church, bringing in the details that would help make her day even more beautiful, like the flowers and her dress, she was content as could be. i even asked her at one point if this was real yet because she seemed so calm. she and her bridesmaids were so much fun and kept me entertained for sure. i consider myself to have made some new friends. here is jana, one of her bridesmaids and her niece, a jr bridesmaid…

here is gene, doing his awesome “non-smiling” face…doesn’t he do such a great job? that’s for you gene.
i loved the lighting here.

gene, as well as his groomsmen were hilarious. they kept me laughing and on the edge of my seat for sure as you will see in a just moment…

here is one of jana and her bridesmaids…so lovely.

i thought we were done taking some of the groomsmen shots, when they told me they wanted to have a “fan” picture, i thought this was hilarious.


the amazing couple.




i had a blast yesterday! hope you guys have an awesome time on your 7 day cruise honeymoon!

i couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day, than the day we took these pictures. the sky was blue. the grass was green. and the bride-to-be was beautiful. what more could you want than to walk barefoot through a field in your wedding dress? yes please. we went to white oak park, a new park in dallas and i honestly could get enough of it. it’s a photographers dream. enjoy these pictures…






happy easter.
