I was with Jessica & Arcenio from 1:00PM to a little past midnight.  It was about 12 hours of wedding goodness.  Enjoy.

A little wedding day shoe scuff.

You never really know where your earrings are going to end up.  That’s why it’s very important that you pick bridesmaids you are “comfortable” with.

The ceremony was the beautiful St. Peter Claver Catholic Church in Tyler, TX.

Thank you guys for trusting me with you day.  Look for some Mug Machine fun tomorrow.

A few days before her session Natalie informed me that she is not a huge fan of being photographed.  :)  I aksed her to give me 20 minutes and if she didn’t like the process/results after then we would just quit.  Turns out it was not as bad as she expected and her and Jason ended up with an 1.5 hour long session!! :)

Fun with escalators.

I have no idea what this turtle means, but we could not resist including it in the photos.

This card was part of Jason’s proposal process so we had some fun working it into the session.

Random guy driving by who apparently wanted to be in the photo.
Thank you guys for a great session.  See you soon for your wedding!!

I had so much fun with the guests at Kristen & Brandon’s wedding.  Here are some of my favorites.

You may remember from their engagement session that they are both big baseball fans.
Family Christmas card coming soon.

Grandparents are awesome!

Mother & Father of the bride.

If you have ever been to the Villa di Felicita then you probably have seen Joe.  He’s security and he’s really really mean. :)

A quick behind the scenes look at The Mug Machine.

Lisa is moving so this was her last wedding.  :(
If you have been married at the Villa di Felicita then odds are you were helped by Lisa.
She is super friendly and her wedding day planning magic will be missed.

A few of my favorites from Kristen & Brandon’s wedding at the Villa di Felicita in Tyler, TX.

Another tasty cake from Designs by D’Anne

These two came ready to work.

La Tee Da Flowers did their magic.  I always love getting to work with them.

Every time I mentioned having a First Look to these two they were opposed to it.  About 3 weeks before the wedding Kristen said they had changed there mind and wanted to do one.  Once they saw each other both of them really seemed to “settle down” and they kept mentioning how glad they were they decided to do one. :)

I like to keep my couples alone for a few minute after their First Look, but these two were too cute to shoo away. :)

We went outside for a few shots with the wedding party.  We looked at the back of Kristen’s dress & found some grasshoppers who were also celebrating their wedding day.  I joined the groomsmen in photographing them proving that all males, regardless of age, are just 6th grade boys when it comes to humor.

A quick action shot of Thomas taking care of the wedding walk.  This is just one example of why I love La Tee Da so much.  He waited till the last possible minute to set out these flowers because he didn’t want the wind to blow them to the side.

Thankfully Thomas had left by this point or I’m afraid the ring bearer would have gotten in trouble. :)

Two things I love about this photo.
1. A Seriously good “You may kiss the bride”.
2. Jeff Heimer from JMH Pro peaking around the back.
(I love working with talented videographers and Jeff is one of the best in the area.)

Come back tomorrow for some fantastic-ly delicious Mug Machine photos!

Sometimes when I get to a wedding and a bride had told me her color it’s still hard to “find” her color.  There was no doubt Jean wanted a bit of purple in her day. :)

These two had one of the sweetest First Looks in a while.  They just stood there and hugged and talked for quite a while.

I’m not sure who drew their gun first, but there was a bit of a stand off for a while.  Things got tense. :)

Flying bridesmaid.

Impromptu Dance Party.

This was James as they left the ceremony and were heading down the hall for a few minutes alone. :)
