Congratulations to Teri & David!

Teri married David in a beautiful, touching ceremony at their church in north Dallas Sept. 18 followed by the reception she had always dreamed about at the historic Adolphus hotel in downtown Dallas. Every aspect of the day was personalized to suit the couple with the help of Teri's friend and event planner, Kristine Schwope. Each had nieces and nephews as part of the wedding party along with family and life-long friends. Their black and white theme was enhanced by vivid rainbow colored flowers. David's love of bells was reflected in the small bells on each table which were rung in appreciation throughout the night. Their shared passion for Egyptology showed throughout with a hummus station as one of the many food stations, a "Dance Like an Egyptian" dance-off (a shout out to Tyler Paul their awesome DJ,) and hand-made pyramids filled with confetti to throw as they left their reception and headed off to their honeymoon in Paris.

Congratulations to Brittney & Chris who got married today! They picked today's date for the luck it brings. Brittney brought Chris along for her unconventional bridal portraits taken at Saints & Sinners Tattoo in the Bishop Arts District of Dallas in first a vintage bridal dress then her blue Betsy Johnson reception dress. Thanks to S&S for letting us have the run of the place for the shoot. One guy was even getting a tattoo while we were there.

Chris' & Brittany's Pink & Green Wedding

Brittany planned an amazing wedding that focused on family, friends and fun. She included 4 kids and her dog along with 6 attendants each. One of her brothers even officiated. They each had college buddies who showed up to perform sorority/fraternity rituals at the reception. The dj kept the dance floor full all night, and when the couple left, they fired water pistols at the bubble blowing well-wishers. Congratulations, Chris and Brittany Wilson!

Hot fun in the summertime

Country Beauty

In our journey across Ellis County with Alyssa, her something blue was her grandmother's blue boots. We drew looks in downtown Red Oak and had the sheriff slow down for a closer look as she posed in front of the hay stacks in a field. After we waved, the sheriff went on his way. Best wishes to Alyssa, our country beauty.

Brittany's Bridals

Brittany Utley got married last Saturday to Chris Wilson. These were her bridal portraits taken at the Dallas Arboretum in July. She brought along her mom & dad and Bebe, one of her her bridesmaids. The fishing pole was because her new hubby likes to fish, and that girl can jump higher than anyone I've met that wasn't still in high school. Their wedding was all about family, friends and fun. Congratulations to Chris and Brittany. Here's a preview from her pink and green wedding.
