I could go on and on about how much I love this couple. Just one example of how sweet and amazing they are: Amy texted me the morning after her wedding to say thank you. That one text totally exemplifies how Amy and Ross live their lives - with love, kindness, and consideration for everyone around them. They really are perfect together and I know that they are going to do some amazing things in their marriage.
Read MoreCarsyn + Tino packed a ton of their loved ones into the quaint St. Lucien’s Chapel, which I now believe is one of Amarillo’s best kept secrets. Right before their ceremony, a couple of things happened. First, the bride and groom stood back to back, without seeing each other, as their closest family members surrounded them and covered them in prayer. Tear drops fell down Carsyn’s cheeks during the special, intimate moment. Then, seconds before they walked down the aisle, the sky erupted with a downpour of rain.
Read MoreI have shot a select few weddings that could not have gone better timeline-wise. It is absolutely refreshing when it happens because it allows me to fully do my job and it allows the bride and groom to relax and simply be along for the ride. In contrast, weddings with messy or tight timelines will create a wedding day full of frenzied emotions and frazzled brides.
Read MoreTaylor and Taylor got married in a traditional, elegant wedding at Legacy Event Center in Lubbock, Texas on a perfect spring day. Yes, the bride and groom have the same name and now they have both the same first and last name. However, friends and family use the nicknames “Big Taylor” and “Little Taylor” to differentiate the two. Adorable is an understatement.
Read MoreI get pretty attached to my clients and Kayce is no exception. Since she lives in Fort Worth, the first time I met her in person was during her bridal session in Palo Duro Canyon - where her wedding also was. I instantly liked her. And her wedding last weekend ended up being one of my all time favorites for many reasons but mostly because the people there were awesome. Not only were Kayce and her now husband Conner so amazing, nice, and relaxed but their wedding party was perfect as well!
Read MoreI knew I liked Sheridan and Jerry from day one. We met back in the fall when they booked me for their July 2017 wedding. The moment that Sheridan pulled out her wedding planning notebook was the moment that I knew I had found an ideal client and kindred spirit. She was so organized and on the ball! Being super Type A myself, it's fun to work with people that think like I do.
Read MoreThe longer I take pictures, the more beauty I find in our little corner of the world. Amarillo, Texas and the surrounding areas are full of photography locations that fit every adjective: beautiful, romantic, edgy, urban, ethereal, classic, quaint, I could go on and on. If there's something you're going for, there's definitely a location that will fit the bill. Here are some of my absolute favorite places to take pictures in Amarillo.
Read MoreWhen Marie first emailed me she described herself as a "small town girl meets big city east coast boy." She's originally from Lubbock and she met Brett, the man that would become her husband, while in the Air Force. On the 2,564th day of their relationship (I didn't do that math), they became husband and wife.
Read MoreThis engagement session just screams spring and I love it so much! Celia and Blake met in high school in their small town of Perryton, Texas. Now, 8 years later, they're engaged and they're getting married at the Resplendent Garden this summer (I, for one, can't wait for it!). Clearly, these two just work together. It's easy to see that they've been together a long time and they know each other well.
Read MoreI'm so glad that Ashley, John, and I were finally able to meet up and do their engagement session! I say "finally" because all of us kept switching the date back and forth. We couldn't seem to find a date that stuck due to weather, work schedules, my shooting schedule, etc. But finally! We made it work and it was so worth it.
Read MoreThese two adorable people have spent six years together (four of which were long distance) and they are now getting married later this year. They are so amazing together and they are as sweet as they look. Their engagement session in Palo Duro Canyon was full of real laughter (my favorite!) and lots of cuddling for warmth. Though it was a breezy, crisp January day, their smiles are what make the pictures look warm.
Read MoreAleecya and Kyle's engagement session was one big giggle fest. Aleecya warned me before her session that her fiance, Kyle, was "not much of a picture guy." But I promised her that I would make them feel comfortable and rarely would I have them just staring at the camera. So I made them kiss and do silly things and the two of them were pretty much laughing the entire time we were downtown.
