today’s category may be my favorite.  i love the random things that happen at people’s weddings.  these are not thing you can usually plan for, pintrest, or expect.  it’s just part of the organic day that is your wedding.  your wedding day is not made up from a checklist and timeline but all the tiny moments that happen along the way.  some of those tiny moments just happen to be more awesome than others. :)

ready set. go!

here are the entries.

i’m glad they had a first look.  if not this would have been the first time daniel saw rachel. :)  pretty magical eh?

a very well prepared father of the bride.


any bridesmaid who can jump, catch a bouquet and not spill her drink gets props from me.

no one plans for it to rain on their wedding day.  chesley did plan on smiling on her wedding day.

aggies.

i hear it gets hot under those dresses.

nothing says classy ring bearer like poopin’ in your pants.

the ceremony to reception shoe change is every brides favorite moment.

i’m not sure if he is holdin’ down the dance floor or if the dance floor took him out.

kids love me.

rachael & daniel’s wedding really was about having fun with all their friends.  i love this shot of them leaving.


christa & jeff were super super flirty flirty and affectionate.  i love this one from their first look.

audrey & cody really seamed to soak up every moment of their day. i love that audrey is laughing even though the horse just ate part of her bouquet.

lindsey & brandon had fun all day.  (this is the part where brandon had extra fun.)

lisa & mike were so so sweet to each other.  mike is a huge guy with such a tender heart.  i loved this moment alone they had.

tiffany & chris had the perfect sunset wedding. chris rarely took his eyes off her.

this shot of stephenie and jared leaving the ceremony is one of my all time favorites.

christen & brandon may have been my most “romantic” couple.  i love this shot peaking through the leaves during their first look at elmwood gardens.

cassie and kinsey may have laughed more together on their wedding day than any couple i ever photographed.  (that is a great sign for their marriage.)
rory is basically the man every father wants his daughter to bring home one day.  during his first look he kept talking about how gorgeous lisa is.
(huge bonus points for him wanting to see every detail of her dress.)

30 minutes after hanging out with Rachael & Daniel they became some of my favorite people.  It was an honor to capture the launch of their marriage and I loved seeing them fall more in love with each other as the day went on.  (Side note: To all you Tyler brides looking for a place to get married, you should visit Lake Tyler Petroleum Club.)


Because she is awesome, Rachael had a custom record made for Daniel with all of their wedding music on it.

Because he is awesome, Daniel had Adalante Catering make him a record cookie cake.

Daniel updating his Facebook status right before their First Look.

A very very serious group of groomsmen.

The great thing about pulling the ring out of a Cracker Jack box is having a snack for the rest of the wedding.

Cracker Jack or Record?  Which is your favorite?  Sound of in the comments.

It was my first time working with Lone Star Light & Sound and I loved them.  They did everything a great DJ should do.  Call them and book them.

Thank you two for being awesome.  I hope some of your awesomeness rubbed off on me.
