Jessie and James lakeside engagements

This most adorable couple has been together 7 years, now they are engaged to be married in September at Avalon Legacy Ranch in McKinney, TX.

We originally planned on shooting at Arbor Hills but due to my recent chigger attack out there I begged them to change locations, she was more than fine with that! Her friend suggested White Rock Lake so we headed out to this secluded part of the lake and well, the photos speak for themselves. I will definitely be shooting there again!

Any engaged couples looking for a great location for photos? Let’s chat about how fun this area can be!

Marissa & Jared’s preview blog – Engagement session in Deep Ellum

Marissa & Jared very recently got engaged and are starting the wedding planning as we speak.

Originally she wanted outdoors and nature but after I provided her with a list of my favorite locations they decided on Deep Ellum. There are many murals in Deep Ellum I absolutely love, some have just gone up in recent months so I was excited to see what was new.

Here are my favorites from today’s session 🙂

Wedding previews – Rebecca & Joseph

Rebecca & Joseph were married this morning at Bob Woodruff Park in Plano, TX under the most amazing large trees and surrounded by family and close friends. It was short and sweet, such a perfect day!

Note from the bride:

Joseph and I are childhood best friends. We’ve know each other 20+ years now but didn’t start dating until about 4 years ago. This is his first wedding and will be my 2nd/last. It truly is awesome that somehow we fell in love with our best friends. We are a goofy and our family is a little quirky but we are super easy going and like to have fun so this should be an easy shoot.

Maggie & Matt’s wedding previews – March 31, 2018

Maggie and Matt’s Story

Matt and Maggie met in 2013. They had their first date at Giuseppe’s in Denton and talked until the restaurant closed. They didn’t talk for awhile after that, but eventually they found each other again and the rest is history! They ended up spending a lot of time with each other and enjoy hiking, reading and relaxing together. In the summer of 2015, they adopted a weenie dog named Sawyer to serve as a little brother to Maggie’s pup, Hector. They moved in together in the fall of 2015 and decided to buy a house in 2017. Now they’re beginning their happily-ever-after.
The Proposal

On a family vacation to New Jersey with Maggie’s extended family, Matt decided to pop the question under the fireworks on the 4th of July. The beach, family time, and now a fiance, it was a vacation to remember!

Katy & Dennis – March 29, 2018 at The Springs Rockwall

Katy and Dennis were married at The Springs Event Venue in Rockwall, TX.

Dennis and Katy grew up in the small towns of Princeton and Farmersville and went to rival high schools. Dennis was very active in sports and dance and Katy was involved in cheerleading and dance. They had never met until a mutual friend suggested that they had similar interests. Once their paths crossed  junior year of high school, the rest was history! They moved to Los Angeles after graduation and have been pursuing the fitness and entertainment industry ever since. Their dance background plays a huge role in how they met and they continue to share that passion with each other. They also enjoy travel and adventure, and they have exciting things planned for their future together. March 29th, 2018 will be their 5th anniversary.

Dennis proposed to Katy on Christmas Eve in 2016, he surprised her along with friends and family on her way home from the airport for the holidays. A link to the proposal video is attached below.

Engagement session at the Dallas Arboretum – Courtnie & Jonathan

I will be photographing Courtnie & Jonathan’s wedding in July at the Las Colinas Country Club. This morning we met at the Dallas Arboretum. I actually prefer to shoot in overcast rather than sunlight so I was thrilled when I looked outside this morning as I was preparing to leave.

If you have not been to the Arboretum during their Dallas Blooms, you must go, gorgeous tulips and flowers all over the garden! You still have until April 8, 2018 to do so 

Here are some of the best shots from the session!
