11/29/09-Joyous Occasion

Candace and Jeremiah's wedding finally made it here. I took their Engagement/Family Portraits about a month ago. One their wedding day the cool front came in; it was so chilly out that everybody waited until the last minute to go outside to blow bubbles to send them off. I am glad; I was able to be part of their special day.



11/28/09- Santa Claus is coming to town

I had the pleasure of capturing some cute portraits of this little darling boy.

11/27/09 - Hill Country

We drove down to Hillsboro, TX to take family portraits. Lets just say working with children and pets can be very challenging, but at the same time very rewarding. We had a fun time capturing the portraits.


11/22/09 - Fairy Tale Wedding

Once upon a time there was a young girl named Stephanie who fell in love with a handsome man name Ben. They decided to have a wedding in November under the fall trees at the Wildwood Inn in Denton, TX. Stephanie and Ben's wedding was beautiful and intimate. And they live happily ever after. Thank you for allowing us to come and capture your day.


11/17/09 - Camera Shy

I took Joel's Newborn portraits a couple months back, and had the pleasure of coming back and taking family portraits. Joel was just not into the lights and attention of getting portraits made. Even with a camera shy infant I was able to capture some timeless portraits.

11-1-09 At the Lake

I meet Candace, Jeremiah and their son at the lake for engagement and family portraits. It was very important to them to have a father and son portrait; we decided on doing a fishing portrait because that was a favorite past time of theirs.

10-31-09 Lady in Red

What can I say? So far Stephanie's Bridals are my favorite. I know I should not be bias but she looks gorgeous in all of them. We just drove around and look for an area with nice fall colors, and took some indoors at her friends home.


10-24-09 Pretty in White

I love Texas Fall Weddings, the weather is so prefect and so was Crystal's and Shannon's ceremony. They wedded at the Northeast Wedding Chapel in Hurst, TX. Crystal was beaming with excitement and Shannon was cool and calm. I am so glad that they allowed me capture their joyous day.

10-17-09 Beautiful Day for a Wedding

It was a beautiful day at the Westlake House in Mesquite, TX for Diane and Steven's Wedding. The sun was shining and the temperature was just right. To top it of they were surrounded by their love ones holding sparklers to wish them happy ever after.

9/30/09- Barefoot at the Lake

I meet Debra and Aaron at TCU for the first location of their Engagement Session. They both went to TCU and meet at TCU. The second location we went to a park on the lake in Fort Worth. Debra mention that they were going to have a barefoot wedding, and I thought that it would be fun to do some barefoot at the lake portraits. I had such a great time talking and photographing them and I am excited about the upcoming Bridals and Wedding next year.

9/30/09-Home Sweet Home

I meet up with Crystal and Shannon at their home in Fort Worth. They live in a beautiful neighborhood with trees and landscape all around their home. It was a blast taking their engagement portraits, and look forward to their wedding in a few weeks. Here are a few of my favorite photographs from the session.

I am so glad, the rain held off until after Crystal's Bridal Session. I had such a fun time working with her, making my job easier. At the very end of the session we got a timeless portrait of her. I am looking forward to capturing Crystal's Wedding Day in October.

9/12/09- Lucky Day

Hindu's believe that rain on your wedding day will abstain a strong marriage, because a wet knot is harder to untie. If rain is good luck as the Hindu believe then Erica and John will have very long marriage together.

Happily Ever After- 7/11/09

My cousin Amy and her husband Ben were in town this last weekend. Saturday was their 13th Wedding Anniversary and they want some portraits taken. We took them at a park near my home, and right before and during sunset. They are some very romantic portraits.


Simple but Elegant - 7/11/09

I meet Sara, the bride to be, at the Fort Worth Botanical Gardens for her bridal portraits. Sara once again was a real trooper, even at 10 am it felt like 100 degrees. We made it through and got some beautiful portraits. Here is a sneak peak; I will post a couple with the dress after her wedding.

Sara wedding as come and gone. As promised here are some portraits with the dress.

5/17/09- Chapel Creek Fellowship Worship Team


In April, my church ask me to volunteer to be the Church Photographer, and I gracelessly agreed. I have enjoyed meeting the new church members and doing special photography assignments. We recently got a new Worship Team Leader, who is awesome, and they ask for some new photographs of the worship team in action.



5/30/09- Dance Recital

My nieces had a dance recital in McKinney, TX. There were multiple mini recitals, then a production of "Snow White", and then another multiple of mini recitals. My nieces both preformed a ballet and jazz routine. It was a long night but worth every tiring moment.




6/6/09 - Noah's Birthday

My Brother and Sister-n-law threw a Birthday Party for my very cute two year old nephew. The theme was the jungle; they hung moneys off the lights in the dining rooms, and had jungle animals all over the house. There were lots of activities, watercolor painting, masking making, and coloring pages. I had the pleasure of capturing him for his two old portrait.

Summary of Work - January thru April

My husband and I decided at the start of 2009 that we would make a go at Wedding Photography. We have taken previous photographs of our family and friends' weddings and loved doing it. To get our name out there we posted a free wedding package listing on Craig's List, and was able to get a couple of responses before being flagged.

3/17/09- Sheri and Duffy

Sheri and Duffy responded to our free add on Craig's List. Come to find out we were neighbors at one time, and lived across the street from each other. They had a Irish Theme wedding, there colors were green and white, and wed on St. Patrick's Day. Sheri was a beaming bride; she had a smile on her face the entire day. It was a beautiful ceremony that took place at White Chapel Estates & Garden.


3/19/09 -Family Fishing Trip

My family had a week long fishing trip at Lake Somerville this year. It was the first time my parents, brothers, and I have been all together without the spouses and kids. We got up and were on shores of the lake ready to fish before sunrise and left right before sunset. It was peaceful, exciting, and fun. I hope we do it again next year.


4/4/09- Frankie & Jerry

We headed east to Springfield, TX to photograph Frankie & Jerry on their wedding day. The ceremony took place on their gorgeous land in front of a small lake. They were a lot of fun to photograph. The wind would die down just long enough for us to get so great portraits.

4/19/09- Jennifer & Bryan

We were honored with being able to celebrate with Jennifer & Bryan on their wedding day. The ceremony took place at The Dallas Arboretum at the top of a hill, overlooking a lake. They were such good spots going all over the garden and taking portraits at a dozen different spots.
