This past weekend Cassie became a wife. She was just as gorg as she was for her bridal session a few weeks earlier. I have been dying to share may favorites from this session and am so glad I didn’t burst before then. Cassie, you are beautiful inside and out. Eric, you are one lucky man and I know you won’t take her for granted. Cassie’s flower girl got a...
Top Reasons I Should NOT Be Your Photographer
WARNING: This may rub you the wrong way. There are so many photographers in this digital age that it can be daunting and feel like a very saturated market. But the fact of the matter is that no 2 photographers are the same. The way they act, talk, and photograph are vastly different and sets them all apart. In a world where everyone is saying “Pick me! Pick me!” I...
Rustic Engagements | Thomaston, TX | Cassie + Eric
Cassie and Eric’s love story reminds me of the saying I have heard and know all too well. What will be will be. I sometimes here this in a negative setting, but not for these two. They did meet. They did not fall in love right away. They went on with their separate lives. BUT….They did come back into each other’s lives and, even though Cassie was a little hesitant at...
Rustic Portraits | Mission Valley, TX | Cheyane + Randal
You may recognize these gorgeous faces from their family photos last year when I first photographed their sweet little family. It’s safe to say that Bruce was still a bit grumpy during the shoot, but he cooperated more this year than last year. Maybe because I wasn’t a total stranger this time around. Cheyane has such great style that I makes it hard not to get stoked to photograph her. Chey, you are...
How to make this the BEST year yet!
I confess…I’m GUILTY! I am human and I screw up and make mistakes. One of the most common mistakes I make is to set unrealistic goals and try to fool myself into thinking they are achievable just to be disappointed and upset with myself for not making it. Whether it was for New Year’s, a special occasion or just because, I would set myself up for failure! I have decided...
Spring Creek Place Event Center | Victoria, Tx | Erika + Stephen
The weather was literally trying to put a damper on the whole day. A cold front had come in and it was drizzly rain, windy, and cold. That didn’t seem to effect the couple’s moods at all. They were still happy and care-free on their wedding day. They did a great job on picking who to have close to them that day, because the wedding party just added to the...
Happy Birthday, Abby!
My first born, Abigail, just turned five years old and I am in total shock. She is such a great big sister and totally born to be a first child. She is a leader and bossy, yet sensitive and so dang smart! I love her so much and can barely comprehend how she has grown so much in five years. Happy Birthday (one day late) Abby! ...
Yoakum, Tx |Backyard Thanksgiving Wedding | Alecia + Brian
I was originally supposed to photograph this family in the middle of November until Alecia said that Brian had proposed and they were going to have the ceremony at their house the day before Thanksgiving! Ahh! I was so happy and excited for them! So we bumped up the family photos sooner so they weren’t as close to the wedding. Easy peasy…the hard part was waiting for the actual day. It...
D & E Party Barn Ranch | Victoria, TX | Hilary + Edgar
The day started at the salon where Hilary was surrounded by her closest loved ones to get pampered for the day. Hilary bought her wedding party custom bracelets from KEEP Collective and even wore one herself. It was so cute and unique and it was such a great idea! I love these getting dressed shots because if you look close enough you can see a phone flashlight being used to help light...
Bridget + Geoff – Engaged
When Bridget first messaged me I thought it was like any other inquiry; that was until we started a conversation. It was so crazy how she and I were practically the same person! Our love of Harry Potter, soft spot for cats and preference for a bold red lip! Ok, you aren’t here for me to talk about the things her and I love but to share with you the love Geoff...
