Erin & Fred are sooo much fun!!! I really enjoyed meeting and getting to know them...and even become friends with them. Hi Erin!!!!! : ) Everyone at the wedding was so nice and totally fun!!

Check out the slideshow

Also, check out Erin's Bridals that we did a couple months ago....didn't want to post just in case Fred was sneaky and peaked ; )

Back Again.....Already?!??!

I had a crazy busy portrait weekend in October 3 portraits and a wedding in one weekend!!! Oh the editing!! It was very fun because all my couples and brides were GREAT!! But because of the craziness I have decided I am not going to work on Sundays at all in 2008.....And I am very sure Brad will hold me to that ; )

Here are my faves from the 3 portrait sessions





Heather and Cody.....ok seriously cute!! We played in the studio for a while and then had some fun in the square just outside the building. They really are a cute couple and really know how to get the other to laugh and play.

But really I had a Corey in the morning and a Cody in the afternoon!?! They were just trying to mess me up!!!




Angela and Corey were WAY too awake at 8am on Sunday!!!! Corey was cracking me up so much about the bugs on the trees and telling me all about how for their honeymoon they are going to LA to get tattooed by Kat Von D from LA Ink....I'm thinkin that will call for a kick bootie portrait session when they get back!! Stay tuned for more Angela and Corey in January for their wedding!!

Stephanie and I traveled around the SMU campus and the Highland Park United Methodist Church. We had a lot of fun walking around an empty campus....it was a Saturday morning and the football game was a away game ; ) I am so excited for her and Jon's wedding in December!!

Ready for more??

Yay!!! More slideshows!!


Allison & Jeff's Slideshow
Allison and Jeff got married at the Hotel Crescent Court and it was such a perfectly beautiful day!! There was just enough wind to give us a comfortable breeze in the courtyard. And then then next morning they went on a cruise around the Caribbean!!



Kelly & Jim's Slideshow
The Benton Ranch where Kelly and Jim had their wedding was so pretty and peaceful!! We had a little bit of rain early on but then got to sneak out and play in the sun for just a couple minutes during the reception. Kelly and Jim are my favorite NASCAR fans!! Even though Jim likes Matt Kenseth : p
Go Casey Mears!!!!

you don't call, you don't write........I don't blog : )

Yes I know I have been bad about the blogging lately.....but I have CRAZY busy!!!!!!!! I have been out of town for what feels like every weekend!!! I am actually out of town right now, but I am working too, wow big shocker......

Here are Allison's Bridals. We went and played at Flippen Park and she looked so amazing!!! Allison picked a perfect dress for herself and it definitely does not hurt that she has a very natural and classic beauty. Stay tuned for her and Jeff's slideshow coming very soon.

Here are a couple September weddings, yep that's right I said September : )

Melissa & Wes's Slideshow

Jenna & Justin's Slideshow

Elizabeth & Todd

Elizabeth and Todd......where do I begin?!?! They are an AMAZING couple!! They are both super fun and sweet, and they have crazy fun family and friends. But I think the thing that really struck me about Elizabeth and Todd is how much they really love each other. During their last dance they could hardly contain themselves....Elizabeth was glowing and had such great facial expressions that even when she saw the pics she told me how surprised she was to see her own excitement. They are definitely the kind of couple that when you see them together you KNOW they are going to be together for the rest of their lives!!

Hurricanes are Poopie!!!

Ok so the curse of Bonaire continues.....for all those that do not know what/where Bonaire is it is one of the dutch Antilles islands off the coast of Venezuela, right beside Aruba and Curacao, it is my overall favorite place to dive.......and it hates me. I thought the 3rd time would be the charm.....I was super wrong. 1st trip to Bonaire Jan '04......Underwater camera flooded, weightbelt gone, blood everywhere when I got slammed into lava rocks by a wave (3rd dive of the trip). 2nd trip to Bonaire Aug/Sept '06 almost got bitten by a shark the day after Steve Irwin died from a stingray.....yes I know this one was my fault but still. 3rd trip Aug '07 2 days delay thanks to the Hurricane (that is a really long story in itself that I will spare you) dive computer all jacked up before we even go on the 1st dive (for those of you who know about dive computers, it was telling me I was at 4ft and had been there for 1.5hours while still on the beach) 2nd dive- underwater strobe died (no strobe=bad pics!!) 3rd dive strobe is for sure dead (after an expensive battery change) and now my UW camera won't advance!! 5th dive - regulator busted just before I got in the water. So all in all this is the single most expensive dive trip in history!!!!!!!!! But we did get to see baby sea turtles hatch and find their way to the big ol' blue!!! So here are some fun on land pics for you!!


Sexiest Man alive!!

Jennifer and Justin had a super fun time at their wedding, They were both dancing like there was no tomorrow. And Jenn's father daughter dance was Awesome!!! They rocked out to let's overload from Dirty Dancing (one of my all time favorite movies as well) It was too cute!! Everyone was super friendly and a lot of fun! Click here to check out the slideshow.

Fun with Kelly & Jim

I took Kelly & Jim to Celestial Park in Addison to shoot their engagement portraits and we had SOOO much fun!! Kelly and Jim are so playful and Jim really has a great smile.....we all know how hard it can be to get the groom (or boyfriend, or Dad, or brother, or any person of the male persuasion) to smile a REAL smile, and Jim is awesome at it!! Kelly definitely found a good one! AND as if that isn't good enough already they are HUGE NASCAR FANS!!!!! YAY!! Only 2 months til NASCAR is back in Texas!! Check out a few of my faves!

Holly & Kevin

Holly and Kevin are sooo cute!! Holly has awesome facial expressions and everyone could see how much they really love each other and enjoy being a couple. They got hitched at the First Baptist Church in Downtown Dallas and had the reception at City Club in Dallas. Everyone in both families was so sweet and fun especially Holly's super cute niece and nephew!! AND Kevin sang to Holly, he was REALLY good and it was so romantic!!! Check out the slideshow for more highlights!

My Best Friend Jennifer is about to bust any day now with her little girl (finally No More Boys!!!) and I drove out to Boyd to take some maternity and fun family portraits....too bad every time I bring my camera out there the youngest son Rustyn ALWAYS manages to hurt himself....this time he flipped over on his four-wheeler!!!!!
