Hey, just a quick heads up to let you know that I’ll be at the East Texas Wedding Extravaganza. This bridal show will be at the Tyler Rose Garden July 11th from 12:00-4:00.
Not only will I be there pimping my fabulous photos, but The Mug Machine will be there in full force as well. Stop by, say hello, get shot. :)
Here are just a few of the other vendors that will be there.

Heather may have had more details at her wedding than any bride I have worked with. Of course, she’s an interior decorator so that kinda makes sense. Here are 4 of my favorites from her July 4th weekend wedding at Elmwood Gardens.
Designs by D’Anne crushed it on the cakes. (Wait till you see the grooms one.)
You should book her for your tasty wedding cakes. 903-589-6992
Best. Boutonnieres. Ever. (Heather made them.)
A HUGE storm moved in about 3 hours before the wedding. It left the perfect theme for their ring shot.
Full wedding post with tons of images coming in the next few days.
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!
Heather & Blake had a great wedding at Castle on the Lake in Jacksonville, TX. Those of you who have never been there, it’s really one of the more unique wedding venues in the area. It’s really worth looking into and you’ll learn more in the next week or so when I run their vendor interview.
I overheard Heather tell someone that her favorite thing about her ring was how you could see the “whole” diamond. She really has one of the coolest rings I have ever shot.
This was a wedding first for me. The groom was getting his hair done while the bride got her makeup done. :)
Designs by D’Anne did the cake and Flowers by Janae did the arrangements.
Blake had his son to keep him company while he waited on Heather for their First Look.
I finally got a shot of him without hair in his face. (I’m sure his mom will appreciate it.)
We grabbed their boys for a few family shots. It was so stinking windy. That top hat flew off on it’s own and probably traveled another 10 feet before landing.
Boys + Canes = Sword fight.
As they started their first dance, it looked like it would be your “typical” stand and sway dance.
At the end they broke into a little swing routine and impressed all of us.
Come back tomorrow for some Mug Machine goodness. (It’s gonna be good.)
No rambling from me. We are going straight to the image from Jamie & David’s wedding at The Villa di Felicita in Tyler, TX.
Brosang’s Flowers did all the arrangements for the day.
Her bouquet was great, but I was a huge huge fan of the centerpieces.
(They totally reminded me of the Kaminoans from Star Wars. Yes I’m a nerd.)
You may remember Jamie being my “Best Buy Bride“. Because of David’s great love for all things technology I thought it would be fun to work some of that into their ring shot.
Designs By D’Anne was there with their usual yummy and good looking cakes.
Jamie pretty much had a huge smile on the entire day. She was giddy.
I LOVE the look of anticipation on David’s face during their First Look.
Jamie loves the cold so we ran outside for a few shots.
These next two shots are part of a little trivia game.
Can anyone tell me where they were shot? Ladies, you may have toured the Villa Di Felicita, but I’m pretty sure Rhonda didn’t show you this room.
David basically smiled this wide overtime he saw Jamie.
After the ceremony it was reception time and CMB Music made sure everyone had a good time.
Come back tomorrow to see some image from The Mug Machine!
Thanks guys for trusting me with your day. – AlexM
