Bridal Portraits of Meagan

So I had the chance to take bridal portraits of my friend Meagan.  Somehow I managed to talk her into pulling out her wedding dress from when she got married a few years ago and let me take pictures.  She was such a trooper.  Luckily we had a "cold" spell come through town so instead of it being a 95 degree Friday afternoon it was nice and cool... well if you can consider an afternoon in May in Houston cool.  But anyways, she let me take her all over town and we had so much fun!!  Here are a few of the shots from the shoot.. Thank you Meagan!!!!

Donald Family Portraits

I actually had to photo sessions today.  One this morning with Greg, Nikki and Thomas and then one this evening with Nolan, Susanna, Jim, Kathy, Adrian, Barbara and Alana (hopefully I didn't butcher or put down the wrong name :) ).  FYI.. I'm soo bad with names!!  But I did the shoot with Nolan's family and it was a lot of fun as well.  I was actually really nervous before we started b/c it was 6pm and where we were going to take pictures didn't have any shade so they would have been squinting and the pictures would have just not been good.  Luckily, they were super flexible so we went into Katy and took pictures there.  Here are a few of the pictures....   

The Holmes Family Portraits

I had so much fun this morning taking Greg, Nikki and Thomas' pictures.  They were so laid back and easy to work with and Thomas was wonderful!!  Here are a few pictures from the shoot.  

Leslie and Andrew's Prom Pictures...

I am finally able to post prom pictures!!  I have been waiting on editing software to arrive so I could at least clean the pictures up a little.  

This day was CRAZY!!  I was taking Andrew and Leslie's  photos that day.  Andrew looked very handsome!! 

I felt so bad for Leslie that day with it being her Sr. prom and she had a hair fiasco (but she ended up looking BEAUTIFUL as always!!) and then it rained on her and at that point I had taken two photos (one in the salon and one as she was running to take pictures with the group).  Once we got to the group the sky opened up on all of us and MY NEW CAMERA!! But I jumped in the car with Leslie's mom and we went to Vargo's and I was able to get some great shots of Leslie and Corey.  Enjoy...

Weddings

I'm not going to be able to post any pictures from the weddings that I had the opportunity to be the second photographer a few weeks back, but I at least wanted to blog about them.  Scott Kelley, a Houston photographer asked me to tag along and help and be the second photographer at two weddings (the same weekend, I might also add).  

I had so much fun and learned so much and got some GREAT photographs.  If you're interested in having me shoot your wedding, please let me know and I'll schedule a time where I can show you all of my work.  I really do love photographing weddings.  Even though it's 6-8 hours on my feet, it's so much fun and such a rush. 

 I really do LOVE photographing weddings :)!!  

Until next time...

Brazil Mission Trip

I had the opportunity back in March to go to Belo Horizonte, Brazil on a evangelical mission trip.  It was simply an amazing and life changing trip.  It was suggested that I not take my good camera... well b/c I'm a photo fanatic, I knew there was no way I could go to Brazil with just my point and shoot... so I took my good camera and I am sooo glad I did.  Here are just a few of the 1000's of photos I took while in Brazil.  The Brazilians are amazing and I hold them so dear to my heart.  I can not wait to go back down to Brazil.
