OFELIA & MARTIN – 5.19.2012

Filed under: marry me,wedding — admin at 11:28 am on Thursday, July 5, 2012

My in-laws attend Church of the New Covenant here in Mansfield – where they have a Spanish service on Sunday afternoons. They met Ofelia and Martin through that service!

Ofelia and Martin have been married for several years – but only in a civil ceremony. She has been waiting a long time for her wedding!

I LOVE THOSE SHOTS!

Thank you SO much for asking me to capture your love!

Hannah contacted me around Christmas about a gift certificate for her dear friend Miranda – for a bridal session – which are MY FAVORITE sessions to shoot!

AMAZING! Isn’t she gorgeous!

I also LOVE LOVE LOVE birdcage veils!!!

KATIE & JOSH – 5.12.2012

Filed under: marry me,wedding — admin at 12:14 pm on Saturday, June 23, 2012

I’ve known Katie for a very long time – I don’t even know how long!

I had a wedding in March – but Katie’s wedding was my official start of wedding season!

Katie’s nieces and nephew – show stoppers for sure!

One of my favorite places in the valley to take pictures!!

LOVE THOSE ONES!

WAIT – THOSE ONES TOO!!

Doing our best to recreate a BRIDESMAIDS pose – I think it worked pretty well!

Josh painted the tattoos on their wedding topper! SO AWESOME!

Katie & Josh – we are SO happy for you! Thanks for being awesome (and our very own tattoo artists)!

JOSH & DANA – 4.21.2012

Filed under: friends,love,marry me,wedding — admin at 10:54 am on Wednesday, June 13, 2012

Our dear friend Josh married his bride in April – in Charlotte!

My parents kept Fitzy while Jared and I splurged and stayed at The Westin!

I very rarely get to go to a wedding as a guest – so it was a welcome break – but I HAD to bring my camera – just for a few shots!

I LOVE THAT SHOT – but I couldn’t decide which one – so you get both!

Dana – you looked GORGEOUS! We are so happy for you both!

AC & MELISSA – 3.31.2012

Filed under: love,marry me,wedding — admin at 12:34 pm on Monday, June 4, 2012

I have never in the history of this blog been this far behind – although I have a very good reason. An almost walking baby!

Melissa contacted me and said that she knew I had to be their wedding photographer! The first time I met her was her wedding day!

It was a cold day – but that didn’t matter! I love weddings where ALL that matters is the marriage – not the food – not the party – not even the dress – just LOVE!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE her dress!!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE details!

GORGEOUS!!

I love to catch the bride and groom in those little moments right after they say their vows!

I LOVE THOSE SHOTS!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE THOSE SHOTS TOO!!

GORGEOUS!!!

I can’t help it – I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE those ones too!!

And those ones!!! I love when the bride and groom are really really close during the first dance – it makes for great pictures!

I truly hope we have a little girl someday – look at that bond!!

Melissa & AC – thank you SO much for asking me to photograph your wedding! I pray that your marriage is blessed beyond belief!

I met Amanda in college – I can’t even remember how! We reconnected on fbook (which I am off again) and she took advantage of the 2000 likes special!

We met in Watkins Glen on a BEAUTIFUL February afternoon!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE THAT SHOT!!!

I cannot take credit for that shot on the left – Danielle Dickerson did one very similar that I saw and I had to try it! Thanks to Danielle for the inspiration! I still like hers better!

LOVE THOSE ONES!

KELLY & JOE – 9.15.12

Filed under: family,just because,kiddos,love,marry me,portraits,wedding — admin at 1:59 pm on Wednesday, February 15, 2012

I’ve known Kelly for quite a while now! I photographed her sister’s wedding a few years ago and have done some family photos for them!

Her wedding was in 2011 – then it moved to 2012 – then we found out we were pregnant – then I referred them to Bridget Reed – then we miscarried – then Bridget (who is awesome for several reasons) let me know that she could be mine again – so here we are! Back on for her wedding in September – and SO EXCITED!

I love love love when puppies come to sessions!

What a DOLL!

SISTERS!

SO SWEET!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE that cozy shot!

Kelly & Joe – thank you SO MUCH for your understanding and awesomeness in everything! I will see you in September!

TRAVIS & NINA – SHE SAID YES

Filed under: marry me,wedding — admin at 3:26 pm on Tuesday, January 31, 2012

I met with Travis & Nina on a BITTER cold Sunday morning in January – most likely my coldest session yet!

LOVE THOSE SHOTS!

You guys were awesome – even though it was FRIGID! I can’t wait to see your wedding photos!
