Dominique and Christian

I had the honor and pleasure to be a part of Dominique’s and Christian’s afternoon wedding recently in the fabulous St. Anthony Cathedral in downtown Beaumont, TX, shooting with my good friend Drew Loker. The wedding reception was held in one of the gorgeous ballrooms at the Elegante Hotel .

Everything about the wedding was topnotch - the couple was laid back and gorgeous and the bridal party was just so much fun to be around. Everything came together beautifully:

Good luck Dominique and Christian, and thank you for letting me be a part of your special day. :)

Carrie Underwood

I don’t get to go to many concerts since our little one’s birth, but since Melanie’s birthday was coming up fast, I decided a couple tickets to multi-Grammy winner Carrie Underwood’s concert would be a nice gift. Held in the local Ford Park Arena, the venue was packed with thousands of rabid Carrie Underwood fans:

The price of concert tickets these days is crazy, but we weren’t disappointed in the performance Carrie Underwood put on - Amazing! The band and backup singers are the best in the business - young and talented. The lightshow and “laser beams” really added to the atmosphere. :)

She rocked all her #1 songs and a couple I hadn’t heard yet. From “I’ll Stand By You” to “All American Girl” to “Jesus Take the Wheel”, she was in amazing voice - crystal clear when she wanted it and country gravel road when she needed it. We loved it from beginning to end. :)
