Back in Action

Hey loyal blog readers! I apologize for my absence lately as I have been traveling back and forth taking photos of amazing clients! December was a great time to relax and rejuvenate my creative juices and have some personal time with family and friends:) January has put me back into the swing of things and I'm so thankful for a new year and new clients. Come back on Thursday as I will be blogging sweet baby Jaxon and then a New Zealand style wedding in Dallas soon after:) 

Posts are always better with pictures so I leave you with a sneak peek of Jaxon:) Adorable!

Angela and Lucas ~ I Do

Yay! First Wedding of the new year:) Angela and Lucas were the perfect start for me! Both so sweet and up for anything. They were married at the beautiful Immaculate Conception Catholic Church followed by a reception at the Buffalo Valley Event Center. I really loved how this venue looked and the people who work there were on top of their game:) 

We started the day at a friend's house and it was fabulous with lots of space and window lighting which is always a great combination for good photos. 

Angela has the most amazing smile! 

These were some great bridesmaids! Thank you ladies! Take special attention to the hand made bouquets full of antique brooches and pins. Good idea Angela!

Here's the famous Lucas! I can't leave out how great the guys were too. Thanks for all the "close buddy" pictures:)

Above: LOVE!

Below: Reception Time ~ Some of my favorite details/moments at the reception included a photo booth. Not just any photo booth, but they had a couch, lots of props, open frames, and their names hanging above with adorable decorations around. You can kind of get an idea on the last photo. My favorite moment had to be when Lucas surprised Angela with a song he had written for her and as you will see, this was a hit:) 

Thank you Angela and Lucas!

Jaclyn and Chris ~ Engagments

I had so much fun with Jaclyn and Chris on their E-session:) They were my first session of the new year and if this was any indication of how 2011 will go, I am thrilled. Abilene was our location as Jaclyn is finishing her last semester at Abilene Christian University. Chris, however travels all over the place as he plays professional baseball for the LA Dodgers. After hearing this and that Jaclyn plays tennis for ACU, I was of course impressed and wanted to contribute, but I've heard cheerleading is not an actual sport:( 

Check them out. They are adorable! Can't wait till December!

 

Kai and Graham ~ Engagments

Kai and Graham are saying I do in March and what a great day it will be! Kai and Graham met at the phone store where Graham works. Kai's phone had broken and Graham remembers rushing through his customer so he could talk to her. Just a perfect meet cute! Here are my favorites from their e-session:)

Stacie and Brandon ~ I Do

Stacie and Brandon are just fun to be around! They know who they are and their bubbly personalities are very contagious. They were married at Little Chapel in the Woods in Denton, TX followed by a great night at the Denton Woman's Club full of dancing, dinner, delicious cupcakes, and tiramisu cake ( the dessert they ate on their first date):) I loved all the elements in this wedding including their personal style. Here are my favorites!
