She left the scrubs at the office....

Meet Amanda. I usually see her with her hair down and in scrubs. Not today. Presenting a hot, saucy bride who will wed Brannon on March 28.

This amazing venue in Houston is called Paraiso Maravilla http://www.pmhouston.com/. Great place - perfect for bridal portraits. They are always adding neat details. Every time I go there, something has changed.

Isn't she amazing?

Everything about Amanda is awesome - her personality, her smile, her dress, her sweet family. I couldn't be more excited about being a part of their big day at the end of March. What an honor.

Jordan & Warren

This couldn't be a more appropriate couple to showcase for Valentine's Day. Meet Jordan & Warren - beautiful, handsome, fun & so awesome to photograph. We spent an afternoon at Hermann Park playing around. We even had the opportunity to visit and get to know each other during a couple of rain breaks.

One of Jordan & Warren's goals (besides getting some great engagement shots!), was to have a portfolio of images that will be beautifully bound to be used as a sign-in book for the wedding. Great idea!

Alice, my assistant, came along as well to document different angles. She has a fantastic eye! Our images our mixed together but many of her shots are the fun, funky angles I love.

Enjoy & let us know what you think.

So Cool

I love cool kids. You know those kids who are well-mannered, fun, have a sense of humor & totally love being photographed. We all want those kids, right? My client turned friend Amy in Corpus Christi has those prized possessions. Meet K$ (that is pronounced K money) & the O girl. I love photographing these guys.

Photobucket

I have had the awesome opportunity to watch these 2 grow up. I think I photographed them for the first time when they were 6 months old. Too crazy. Now look at these kindergarteners. They are just too cool for school!

Photobucket

My O Girl is a blast to photograph. Beautiful and really full of life. Check her out. Loving the sweet, yet subtle attitude. Quite impressive. This past October, O taught my daughter how to pose for pictures. When I want Hadley to turn it on for me, I remind her of O's photo magic looks.

For the past 4 years, I have had the opportunity to photograph as many as 18 families in Corpus Christi over a weekend in October. It is a neat experience every year. Sure love doing it.

Paris Love

I had the awesome opportunity to fly to Paris this weekend and take these amazing shots for Ashley & Casey. Remember them?
Photobucket
Such an amazing place. So much love in the air.

Have you figured out that I only "wish" I had spent the weekend in Paris and beyond daydreaming won't be in Paris for a while. Ashley & Casey's traveling buddy took these shots per my request while there. When Ashley told me they were going to Europe over the Christmas break, I told her she had to have someone take shots in front of the Eiffel Tower for their Save the Date cards. After a little PhotoShop magic, a few snapshots have become beautiful art. Thanks for sharing your pictures with me, Ashley. So fun to live through others!

Can you tell I am in the mood for summer?


Check out these 3 hotties! So happy I am married to one of them.

He even had a really good attitude. That is hard to come by these days...

Pure sweetness.

Ashley & Casey

I love people who are in love. They are so nice, sincere & happy. If these two aren't in love, they sure are faking it well.


Meet Ashley and Casey - beautiful, handsome, high school sweethearts, world travelers & super cool.


Photobucket



I met Ashley in 2001 while doing Michael (Ashley's brother) and Caroline's wedding. She was beautiful then, but mama, check her out now!

Casey just rolled with it. We had fun and he didn't question my tactics once. Like that guy.





Can't wait to do their wedding in July.
