Read MoreI love participating in bridal open houses not just because it is a great way to network and of course to meet YOU, my future brides and friends, but also because it is a great way to get inspired. Lots of vendors come together to put on a show for the brides. Here is some from the latest one I attended at the Vineyard at Florence.
Read MoreAs a photographer I always think about, how can I document the experience of my couples better, what will they want to see? What goes on while they are getting ready or taking family photos that my couples will want to see. A wedding day is full of beautiful happenings one of which is guests leaving their wishes for the newlyweds. And not just in spoken words or toasts given but in a personalized guest book that they sign for the bride and groom.
I often marvel at the genius ideas my couples have for presenting the personalized guest books, wether it is with something custom made or a little more basic but I know it is never an easy task to pick the perfect one in a sea of styles and designs out there. After all it needs to reflect the personality of a couple and be fun enough to stop the guests in their tracks so they leave a message before they proceed to the fun planned activities on the day.
Read Moretruly believe that my clients are amazing. No matter what photography job they come to fulfill. And every person I meet I hope to make a friend. This was the case with Jessica when she first came to me to do a boudoir shoot for her future husband Thomas who was deployed at the time. Jess wanted to surprise him when he returned home from deployment. She wanted to make a memory before they said their “I Do”.
After we created an amazing boudoir book and Jess deployed herself, she contacted mid way through her tour me saying she wanted me to photograph her wedding amidst the Texas summer heat in the most beautiful venue of Kindred Oaks in Georgetown, TX. It was the biggest surprise and honor of all. Texas has been their home together and they wanted to tie the knot before they would get stationed overseas together (and so their families could attend their big day). So when Jessica was back we all met In the town of Gruene (New Braunfels) to photograph their engagement session and to have the best day out together. You can see it here.
Read MoreOutside of photographing, one of my recent passions has been wedding invitation design. It gives me so much joy and creative freedom to design these and then get to style and photograph it. This suite was inspired by the blue tones of the gorgeous MrPrettySkirts gown and incorporated the idea of the location (situated over a dam of the StillhouseHollow Lake). This amazing location combined the blue skies and the blue-green waters and translated into my bridal suite creation.
