Dale and Rachel's Wedding

Dale and I go way back, about 10 years I think. He and I met at SMU when I was in the opera program there in Dallas. Well about a year ago, Dale calls me up to tell me he just got engaged and wanted to know if I knew any capable photographers... wink! Of course, I throttled him into agreeing to let me shoot his wedding. Did he honestly think I'd trust his wedding images to anyone else? Ha ha ha... 

Anyway, Dale and Rachel had their gorgeous wedding at Wildwood Inn in Denton, TX. Everything was absolutely perfect, the music, the food, the people... I love you guys and I know you'll enjoy many years of bliss!

Dori and Kenn's wedding!

Ok, so if you've never done a jewish wedding before, let me just be honest. It was absolutely fantastic! Dori and Kenn's wedding at Westwood Country Club was so much fun! Everything was gorgeous. Shirley Watson from Flowers by Design did such a wonderful job with the floral arrangements! Russell's Cakes were beautiful, as well as delicious! 

One of my favorite parts of the whole day was witnessing all the wonderful traditions of the jewish culture. Everything from the Chuppah to the Ketubah to the HaMotzi, it was all so beautiful to be a part of. 

Dori and Kenn, thank you so much for welcoming me into your family and being a part of your wonderful wedding weekend. I love you both and congratulations!

Ali and Aldo

Today was such a lovely day! I had the privilege to capture the wedding of Ali and Aldo down at the beautiful San Antonio Riverwalk. Their ceremony was on the riverbank, and they held their reception at the very exclusive Biga on the Banks Restaurant and Bar. I'm so grateful to have the opportunity to photograph such a lovely couple at such a wonderful place! Thank you and congratulations to Ali and Aldo!

Dads and Donuts!

Today was very special, because my Mattie's kindergarten class had Dads and Donuts Day! You know I was totally looking forward to this! 

This is a drawing Mattie did of me, the top one. See the likeness?

So my daughter's Kindergarten class is having a Dads and Donuts day tomorrow morning, which I'm totally looking forward to. Anyway, we're supposed to provide her teacher with photos of the dads from when they were young so the kids can try to match up which one is their Daddy. Let me know what you think...

I think the chubby cheeks give me away...
