Yesterday was Part 1 of Davi & Jonathan’s interview.
Today, Davi talks about the moment that could have ruined her wedding and what she chose to do about it.  Enjoy.

Also, in case you missed them, here are a few photos from their sessions.

Davi & Jonathan were married last June at Elmwood Gardens.  I caught up with them at their place in Austin to chat about being engaged, their First Look, and an event that almost ruined the wedding day.  I’ll post Part 1 today, check back tomorrow for part 2.

View their sessions: Engagement | Bridal | Wedding

So the same day I did Brianne’s snow bridal session I snuck one of my favorite 2010 couples out into the cold for a few photos.  I knew from their kick butt engagement session that these guys would do great in any setting.  Here are a few of my favorites.

I’m really looking forward to Jean’s bridal session!

So last time it snowed you were treated to a couple of posts of my kids outside playing.  Well, this time, we played even harder, but I’m pretty sure you’re tired of seeing them so how about a bridal session in the snow!  I called a few of my past brides yesterday morning and told them if they were in town and could throw their dress on they would be treated to a free bridal session.  Brianne was an Elmwood Gardens bride a couple of years ago and she called me back right away and was ready to go in 1 hour.  (Did you catch that ladies? She went from sitting at home with her 2 year old, to in a dress, hair up, makeup on in 1 hour!!!!  No more excuses about running late on the wedding day.)

She told me every time she sees her wedding dress she wishes she could put it on and wear it around again so I was thrilled to make her Christmas wish come true. :)

Two quick facts about the session.
1: I only wore sweatpants and a t-shirt so that I would be reminded of how cold it was outside and not freeze her to death.
2. We were only outside a total of 9 minutes.  It was my shortest bridal session ever, but I’m pretty happy with the results.

OK, so even though we are halfway done with January, is it still ok for me to do a quick look back on 2009?

Great. Here we go.

Last year I shot 162,668 images. That’s insane. That’s 445 photos per day.
Now granted, some of those were of my family, but seriously, I don’t have THAT many kids. :)

A big shout out to all my 2009 brides.

You were amazing.

Thank you for trusting me with your day.

Thank you for giving me the freedom to document and capture your day through my lens.

Thank you for helping me feed those kids I mentioned. :)
