Wedding: Megan + Spencer

It was freakishly cold yet sunny day March when Megan and Spencer said forever. They had the ceremony at The Star of Texas Bed and Breakfast and it was beautiful. Megan and Spencer are both in the army, I've shot military weddings before but this one was a first - the first time I've ever seen a couple light a unity cigar, first time seen a cut with a k-bar knife, and the first time I've heard the minister say "you may now kiss your superior officer."

Megan and Spencer's wedding had some very unique details thanks to their vendors - Davis Floral, Taste of Heaven Bakery, and Star of Texas Bed and Breakfast, and their wonderful friends and family. We wish you all the happiness in the world!

Engagement Session: Stephanie + Bradley

I had the pleasure of photographing Stephanie and Bradley's engagement portraits over 4th of July weekend. We did the portraits at Stephanie's family's place Rancho Del Orso outside of Comanche. The sky was threatening rain the whole time, but it waited until after we were done to let loose and we rolled with it. The upside of stormy weather is it gives you such dramatic skies.

Thanks to an amazing location, an awesome couple, and an array of photogenic animals we got some really cool shots - enjoy!

One of my photographs has been featured on the cover of Southwest Flair magazine. It's one my favorite images from Kaitlin's session at the Star of Texas Bed and Breakfast and it accompanies an article about elopements at the Star of Texas.

Wedding: Troy + Carmen

It was damp and muddy day when Troy and Carmen said I do, but the sun was shining and it was the day before Valentine's Day so how could it not be romantic? Carmen wore her "Urban Boots" and made the walk down the trail at The Star of Texas Bed and Breakfast where Troy had proposed, and had the ceremony under the glistening bottle trees.

They called it an elopement for five, and it was really beautiful the way they incorporated Carmen three lovely daughters into the ceremony. I thank Troy and Carmen for letting me get to know their family and photograph it's being - I wish them all the happiness in the world!

Boudoir Session: Miss C*

*Real names are never used to protect our sexy clients from the prying eyes of Google

I've been so bad about blogging! I'll try to make up for it though y posting some awesome boudoir for you!

I did a session for Miss C* not too long ago and the images are some of the best I've done if I do say so myself. The session was done in honor of Miss C*'s up coming wedding as a gift for her groom. I think he'll like it better than a pair of cuff links!

We used the 55 Trailer at the beautiful Star of Texas Bed and Breakfast which fit the vintage pin up theme perfectly. Kalle Martin provided excellent 1960's era hair and make up to complete the look. With Miss C's killer boots and trench coat I think we had the Ann Margaret thing down pat!

Engagement Session: Melissa & Brian

Back when I was massively pregnant (yes it was awhile ago) I spent an awesome afternoon running around downtown Brownwood with Melissa and Brian shooting their engagement portraits. It was harder than usual to do my patented laying on the ground move we still got great pictures of a fun couple! I can't wait to see what we get at their wedding in April! Here are the highlights from Melissa and Brian's engagement.

Bridal Portraits: Kaitlin

I had the pleasure of shooting a Bridal Portrait session with Kaitlin a couple of weeks ago at Star of Texas Bed and Breakfast. Day After Shoots are a great chance to have a relaxed portrait session with out worrying about getting the dress dirty or making it to the reception on time. You can also use multiple locations that aren't available on the wedding day but fit your style or sentimental meaning.
Thanks to Don and Debbie for letting us tromp around on their land, there are so many great places to take pictures out there I thought we might never leave! As always fabulous hair and make-up was provided by Kalle Martin and Kelcy Potts.

Day After Shoot : Jackie and K.C

I had the pleasure of shooting a day after portrait session with Jackie and K.C. a couple of weeks ago at Scott and Lindsay Pruitt's horse ranch. Day After Shoots are a great chance to have a relaxed portrait session with out worrying about getting the dress dirty or making it to the reception on time. You can also use multiple locations, like the barn, ranch and field that aren't available on the wedding day but fit your style or sentimental meaning to you as a couple.
Thanks to Jackie and K.C. for modeling, Scott and Lindsay for letting us tromp around on their land, and Big Daddy and Flash Fire for being the most photogenic horses ever! Casual country style hair and make-up was provided by the fabulous Kalle Martin and Kelcy Potts, and the beautiful flowers were provided by Bangs Flowers and Gifts.
