Malissa

November 10, 2008 – 7:35 pm

Malissa contacted me a few weeks ago about shooting a photo session to include as gifts to family for the upcoming Christmas holidays - what a great idea! The session was fun, relaxed and I only got a little horse poo on my shoes during :)

We started out in a more urban location, looking for a little something different. The morning sun beams made for some outstanding photos:

Then we moved on to a local ranch, getting some nice photos with her horse “cricket” and the surrounding pastures and river:

I really enjoyed the session and Malissa has some great photos she can use for gifts. :)

Tara and Daniel

October 30, 2008 – 10:05 am

This past weekend I was in Montgomery, Texas photographing a lovely outdoor wedding with the unique Monique Montoya. Tara and Daniel chose to tie the knot at the Walden Yacht Club on Lake Conroe - beautiful gazebo on the water’s edge followed by a gorgeous reception in the Commodore Dining Room.

Here Daniel gets a little assistance from his best man in getting his tie just right. I think Elvis would have approved :)

Afterwards, out by the water, they strike a mean pose:

Meanwhile, the ladies apply the finishing touches to a dazzling bride:

The wedding ceremony under the gazebo was beautiful:

Then it was time to party! This was a very fun group of friends and relatives to photograph, always willing to try something different and capture the beauty and fun of the day - look at the air Daniel got!:

October 6, 2008 – 7:12 pm

I wanted to post a few images from this past weekend’s wedding with Jamie and Tyson. Held outdoors in Silsbee, Texas in front of their beautiful home, the ceremony was as fun and relaxed as the couple were.

Jamie’s getting her sparkle on while waiting for the ceremony to begin:

Hurricane Ike

September 13, 2008 – 9:46 pm

Just a quick note to all our wedding, engagement and bridal clients: we’re evacuated from Beaumont to Louisiana due to the mandatory evacuation of Hurricane Ike. I am still available by phone and email, but won’t be able to photograph for a few more days as we are unable to get back home yet. I’ll keep you updated as things progress.
