My sister-in-law and her family were in Tyler the same day I was & I could not resist doing a 20 minute family session of them.  I adore these 2 shots.  Thanks guys for being awesome in-laws.  You rock.

If Thomas looks slightly familiar it’s because I photographed his twin brother earlier this year. I LOVE LOVE LOVE shooting multiple family members and getting to see the same people at weddings. I totally start to feel like family and it makes my job 1 million times easier when I actually know who people are heading into the wedding day. Thomas and Jonathan run a trucking company and like any business owners they are on the phone a bit. This was Darcee’s expression when his phone rang 30 seconds into our shoot. :)

These two are perfect in front of the camera.  Super casual and into each other. :)

I told them to name each other’s favorite food on the count of three.  Thomas said “Everything”.  :)

Thank you guys for a great morning.

Well, Summer is coming to an end so I thought I’d share a little bit of what we have been up to.  This summer we decided to put everything we were going to do up on our magnet wall.  We are tackling them one by one and the kids have had a blast tracking out progress. :)  Take a look.
My favorite part of Super Sports Day was assigning random number values to each activity and place.  The competitive side of Jo could not handle it not being “fair”.  :)  I loved it.

Also, lsat week I made a little video of Jo that got picked up by a few NBA blogs.  (Including ESPN)  He is super pumped that it’s almost to 3,000 views.  He’s about 40 views shy so I figure you all can help push him over the top.  Even if you don’t like basketball click it, play it, make the boy’s day.

A couple month’s ago I was shooting a wedding with the uber talented and super friendly cinema super couple Vanessa & Brent McKellar.  They jumped into The Mug Machine and dropped this cheesy pose on me.  Boom.

That’s right.  There is a McKellar baby on the way.  I’m super excited for them and can’t wait to see them turn into incredible parents.  They made this little movie of them finding out as well as them telling their family.  I know the child will be loved.  I know the child will be smart.  I know the child will have the best home movies ever.

They are totally going to keep shooting weddings and the baby should be here the first part of next year.  That means you can book them for your Fall weddings of 2011 and your Spring 2012 weddings. :)

So a few months ago I was introduced to the work of Robin Annette.  She is a super talented artist and I commissioned a piece from her that I’m planning on using on my site when I redo it.  Take a look.

Then I was like… wait…. you totally need to draw my whole family.  How awesome is this??!!??!!

Then I was like… wait… I have an idea.  Draw these people.

And she was like.  Bada bing, bada boom.

How great is that?  You can get anything done, I had her do a wedding portrait, but how fun would it be to have a drawing of where you became engaged?  You can use these everywhere, Facebook profile pics, a print to frame and hang in your new home, wallpaper for your iPhone.  How about as custom stamps for your invitations?!?!

So here is the deal.  You need to give her a call, she is hooking you up with a discount for being a blog stalker.  She normally charges $50 for a couple but is giving you 20% off so it’s only $40.  (That’s like what you’ll spend on 1 person to eat at your wedding. :)

Email her here and mention my site.
