When I first met with these two Lindsay was so excited. Booking me was her 1st “official engaged thing” that she did. :)

I LOVE when I’m first on the wedding planning list. I just met with a “bride” yesterday who is not engaged yet. (You know who you are.)

Anyway, these two were just a blast to shoot. I am looking forward to their 09-10-11 wedding!

Meet Sally.  The other love of David’s life. :)


Thanks for a great session.

5 New Places To Get Married In East Texas
5 New Places To Get Married In East Texas

It seems like every time I look up there is a new wedding venue in East Texas.  (We already have The Villa di Felicita, Elmwood Gardens, The Belgium House, Castle on the Lake, Roseland Plantation, Hunt Villa, and The Legacy Venue.)  I have not had a chance to shoot at all the new ones but still wanted to make you aware of them.  Here are just a few of the newer places.  Most are already open, some are opening soon.  The good news for brides is you should be able to find a place to get married practically any day you want. :)

SuperSquare: A Wedding Album For Your Wall
SuperSquare: A Wedding Album For Your Wall

It is with great pleasure and much fanfare that I am proud to introduce you to the….. SuperSquare!

Just what is the SuperSquare you ask?  Well, think of it this way; it’s like a wedding album that hangs on your wall.  You just spent like 1.3 million dollars on that wedding.  You booked a talented and good looking photographer.  You have amazing wedding photos.  Who wants to keep them hiding in a album on a bookshelf?  Not you.  No, you want them hanging on a wall, impressing all your friends.  That’s where the SuperSquare comes in.

It’s a way of displaying your wedding day from beginning to end in a stylish and classy way.  Your images are printed on a crisp, white canvas that wraps around the frame and is ready to hang on your wall.  Seriously, check this thing out.

The SuperSquare comes in three sizes. 40×40, 30×30, & 20×20.  (Warning: I only let my cool brides order the 40×40)

A few close-up shots.

I added the boys for scale… and cuteness.

The SuperSquare is now included in most of my packages.  If you have already booked and are interested in one, then have your people call my people and we’ll work out the details.

They also brought along Bentley & Soko.


I love this shot.
Soko was totally bummed when we tried to do a few without her.
The happy couple.

These two are getting married December 31st in Vermont and they asked me to come along for the ride.

Snow, woods, wedding.  Yes Please.

One More Thing… I’m announcing something new on Monday morning, so all your current AND past brides start getting excited now. :)
