Portrait: Tifani

A few weeks ago Tifani came to the studio and we made these beautiful photos of her in a Boudoir session. Her & Blake were married this weekend, so now that he has seen these portraits I get to share some of my favorite ones (with their consent of course!).

I have done a few of these sessions now and I have to say that I love them. Tifani brought one her best friends and a suitcase full of goodies to try. She had some cool ideas and was totally open to mine.

I am told Blake loved these and why wouldn't he? Tifani, I hope these not only show how lovely you are, but also a little bit of your beautiful spirit.

Engaged: Shelby & Mike

Sweet Love.

That's the best way I can describe the awesome connection Shelby and Mike have! I had so much fun walking the streets and getting to know them a little better. They are having a destination wedding this summer and just bought their first home! How exciting is that?! That's huge.

I kept laughing because Mike has the best serious face ever. He would be giving us his best 'stainless steel' look and Shelby and I couldn't help but to crack up at his cute silliness.

Loving all the sessions I've had lately! Can you tell? :)

Engaged: Tifani & Blake

This session was a blast to shoot on many levels!

We first went to the Fort Worth Zoo. During Spring Break. A very crowded Fort Worth Zoo. Tifani and Blake were so open to anything though and it was so great how people were so polite and let us shoot at certain spots without getting in the way. These two are so cuddly and sweet with each other! Who knew the zoo could be such a romantic and fun spot to shoot?!

Later that evening we headed downtown for some cool night shots. Good times ensued. My awesome second shooter Efra came along and we had some fun finding light in dark corners. It was awesome and I can't wait to do it again!

Tifani & Blake I can not wait to shoot your wedding next weekend AND the morning after session! So excited!!!

***By the way, I LOVE comments. Comments make me ever so happy.***

I am so proud of this shot. It's got to be one of my favorites Ever.

Portrait: Heather & Jim

Heather is one of my dearest friends. She is sweet, kind and so unexpectedly funny. I am so blessed to be her friend! Last fall she made some beautiful portraits of my Abby and it was my turn to return the favor. Her, her hubby Jim and their pup Zoe met me and we got some great photos! It's always a little intimidating shooting another photo pro, but Heather and Jim let me do my thing and I hope they love their portraits.

Here are a few of my faves!

Wedding: Matt & Mel

Ceremony: Meadowbrook United Methodist Church
Reception: The Colonial Country Club

I am so excited about this year. Vanessa and I got to shoot another awesome wedding. Mel and Matt are so loved by everyone that knows them. It was cool to see so many people from different walks of life celebrating with them.

I loved that at their reception, they had homemade cookies made by different women from both families for their guests to nibble on throughout the evening! Oh and Matt's cake!!! Ok, below you will see a photo of Matt cutting what looks to be a HUGE t-bone steak. That's his cake. It was the envy of the reception!

This is a cake!!!
