Jess and Cody’s Engagment…more added

Scroll to the bottom to see the others I have added

Ok, first of all, this is only part one. These two are friends of me and my hubby’s from Fort Worth. They came all this way just to let me photograph them. I feel honored!!! So in July, I’m going to visit them and we’ll do part 2. Which will be something I’ve never done before (the theme of the picture, not the “part 2″ part). So stay tuned, cause it will be awesome!!! So today, we hiked, we sweated, we saw a dead rat, we drove around, we trespassed a little, we sweated some more, we saw a snake, Cody chased the snake, then we sweated some more. And these two were troopers the entire time!!! I love ya both and your wedding will be so beautiful!! Just like the two of you!

I’m only about half way done going through these pics, but I thought I’d share what I had so far. Which is quite a bit

Ok, so Cody has a real fake smile. He’s adorable, but his smile is a little fake. Or so that’s what I THOUGHT. Check out his smile, this is the very first picture I snapped. Actually was just a tester!

“Ok, so what do we do now??” haha

I’m so glad they found each other. They are the cutest couple ever.

I told them a while back that I really like the “dip and kiss” pose. They’ve been practicing alot. I think they get a AAAA+++++

Any photog knows, shooting at high noon sucks BIG TIME. But someone was watching over us and sent the sun away for a few short minutes

A beautiful bride, OR WHAT!!??

And da da da daaaaaaaa! GORGEOUSNESS.

I’ll get to work, finish these up and then I’ll share!
Much love guys!

Ok, so not to toot my bell or Jess’s bell, but this pictures makes me say “WOW”. I dunno exactly what it is, but I can’t stop looking at it.

Trying to be serious…

Beautiful!

Tryin out a new version of dip and kiss

I dunno…but this picture cracks me up.

hahaha….this is so CORNY. but it makes me smile.

Just a typical newspaper pic. Gotta have some of these.

Exuding sexiness…

Another of the lovely bride.






Still more to come. I hope ya’ll aren’t bored with this post, cause it will be so long once it’s done!!!!

I think I’m pretty much gettin close to being finished. There are a few more I need to look through, but this is definatly the bulk of them. I’m tired and can’t edit any more. I can’t wait for Jess’s modeling session this summer, and our other super secret session. We’re gonna have so much fun!








And this is a double post, but I used a Pro Retouch action and wanted to see how it looked.

AND THAT’S ALL SHE WROTE!!!

Cherie and Marcus *Take two*

I’m excited to have just booked my SIXTH wedding for this year! Each one will be special in it’s own way, and my brides should know that I put alot of individual thought into each wedding process. I really only want to take one wedding per month, only because I’m working 40 hours per week right now. My goal is 12 wedding between now and next March. I’ve got 6 to go! Come on! Email me if you’re interested and I’ll get you my price list and we’ll start talking photoshoots**

Now ON THE THE PICTURES!! This will probably be a long post, because I absolutly can NOT pick favorites. I LOVE this couple and I’m thrilled they have included me in their special day. I PROMISE I will make your pictures as special as I possibly can! LSU is amazing and I wish I could’ve seen more. I DID get to see Mike the tiger and of course that was officially the awesomeist part of the trip No not really, but he was very cool! I love kittys!!!

I have some detail shots of the bell tower I will share. I’m obsessed with it!
I guess I’ll start a little backwards, cause this was the last shot I took of the day!

And one with the couple!!

The “Hungry Tiger” was also a really fun place to shoot!!

My attempt at a little “Jessica Claire” flair….yea didn’t work so mcuh!

The BEAUTIFUL bride!

The HANDSOME groom!

Cherie fell for it, but NOT MEEEEEEEE!!!

And here we have my assistant not assisting me!!!! But instead playing with baby Ava! Oh and baby Ava’s pics will be in another post. I’m sooo sorry this is terribly long!!! ;P

Teaser

So this time I’m NOT staying up all night editing pictures….well, maybe I’ll be back after Matt falls asleep No!!! I’m going to bed! So I drove to LSU today to do some more pictures of Cherie and Marcus from below. This is a special, sweet couple, so I want to go that extra mile (or 200 miles to Baton Rouge!!) for them. I don’t want to just shoot people’s weddings, I want to be a part of their lives. I want them to think of me as a friend, not only their photographer. With Cherie and Marcus, I have no doubt I will never forget their wedding. So enough already! I’m gonna post a teaser picture. My friend Brooke also came along so I snagged some pics of her ADORABLE baby girl, Ava! You’ll see more of those tomorrow too!

See ya’ll tomorrow!
