I just love this girl. Ever since we moved to Goldthwaite over a year and a half ago, Kelsey has been around to provide an awkward moment and a lot of laughs. She has the best sense of humor, a kind heart, and no fear of being too goofy. I had fun shooting her session and being witness to all the funny expressions and funky poses. Never a dull moment with this one around! Kelsey was also a cheerleader, it was always fun to watch her flipping down the field at football games. The girl has serious gymnastic skills. Kelsey, best of luck to you next year. You are fabulous.

Darian is a senior here in Goldthwaite and graduation is just around the corner! She is going to Texas Tech in the fall and wants to eventually become an anesthesiologist. You go girl! I could never do a job like that, I’m glad there are people like you who can! Best of luck to you in college, you’re going to do great!

Meet Emily! I met her when she was in the 7th grade and since then she has grown into a beautiful young woman, both inside and out. She’s really into art and music, so we tried to incorporate a few of her favorite things into the shoot. She had brought a bunch of clothing choices so it made it super easy to get the perfect look for each location. I absolutely love what we ended up with. Emily, you did a super fantastic job and I am so proud of the woman you have become! College is going to look good on you!

What a great wedding! I was so blessed to be able to capture this sweet wedding between two wonderful people in the beautiful Texas Hill Country. It was the perfect spring day in Fredericksburg, TX, especially perfect for a wedding! Cameron and Ashley were two of the sweetest people I have been able to shoot a wedding for. Ashley was so calm and go with the flow all day, nothing could ruffle her feathers. I told her this and she simply responded,” It doesn’t matter because no matter what happens, at the end of the day I’m married to my best friend.” Amen sister! These two understood what the wedding day was about. The beginning of a lifetime marriage. Just beautiful.

It was so great to be able to work with you both, hope you guys are having fun on your cruise!

Congratulations to Andrew and Jody!

I had so much fun hanging out with Andrew and Jody on their wedding day. I just love it when a bride and groom really value the images that are unique to a wedding day. They alloted plenty of time after the wedding to go up to Andrew’s favorite spot in his hometown, a beautiful lookout point that had the most incredible views of the countryside. I have never experienced Oklahoma like this before, there were hills and trees and water everywhere you looked. It was amazing. Andrew and Jody were so precious together, genuinely enjoying each other and their special day.

Thanks ya’ll , I had a wonderful day.

I went a few weeks ago to Ft. Worth to photograph Matt and Ashley’s engagements. Let me tell you, I am super fired up about their June wedding in Brownwood. I was getting so excited listening to the details about their gorgeous reception location, June can’t come quick enough! We had a great time wandering about Ft. Worth and found some super cool locations. What I loved most about Matt and Ashley was their ability to crack each other up. They were so at ease in each others presence and would just laugh and laugh at each other. I know we’re going to have a great time at the wedding!

Meet Brandon and Jaclyn. We had a great time on a beautiful sunny Central Texas day. These two are great together, can’t wait for the wedding this June!

For the month of November, I am going to post every day something I am thankful for. Since I just decided this with only 4 hours left in the first day of November-I’m going to pick an easy one. When I think of what I am thankful for, John pops into my mind. I seriously could not have imagined finding anyone more perfect for me than him. He is my best friend. He keeps me balanced. He makes me laugh. He knows I like to feel safe and protects that, but pushes me when I’m being ridiculous. He brings me breakfast in bed on a Tuesday for no reason. He pushes me to work hard but also gets me to have more fun than I would have found on my own. He loves to play. Ultimate frisbee, drums, guitar, cards, games, with the dog. He doesn’t worry about what others think of him, he’s honest and has more character and integrity than anyone I know. We fit together like a couple of puzzle pieces. Perfectly. We click. And so I am thankful. For all of these reasons and more. I am thankful for my husband.

Meet the Greathouse family. If there was ever a family that made me want to have kids, this is the one. The interaction between these four people is so great to watch. Brant and Megan are great parents, I think Cade is pretty much a genius. He had memorized two separate bible verses before he was three years old! And you should see him with Lily. He loves his baby sister so much. He tells me every time I see him how beautiful she is. Ahh, it kills me. If I can have kids like this someday and a family like this, I will be truly blessed.

Brandy and Brandon had a beautiful day. The morning threatened rain (which we wouldn’t have minded!) but it sprinkled just enough to give us a little bit of a break from the intense heat we have had all summer. By the time the ceremony rolled around, we had the most perfect, warm light that lit up these two people in love. It was a special ceremony, with Brandy’s kids saying a vow to their new dad and a new family being joined together. Everyone was relaxed and there to celebrate Brandy and Brandon. I loved being able to document such a beautiful wedding. The ceremony and reception were held at the Duren Hotel, which is less than 20 minutes from Goldthwaite. I love being in such a beautiful part of Texas. Congratulations you two!
