I had so much fun with the guests at Kristen & Brandon’s wedding.  Here are some of my favorites.

You may remember from their engagement session that they are both big baseball fans.
Family Christmas card coming soon.

Jeff from JMH Pro getting his Mug on.

Grandparents are awesome!

Mother & Father of the bride.

If you have ever been to the Villa di Felicita then you probably have seen Joe.  He’s security and he’s really really mean. :)

A quick behind the scenes look at The Mug Machine.

Lisa is moving so this was her last wedding.  :(
If you have been married at the Villa di Felicita then odds are you were helped by Lisa.
She is super friendly and her wedding day planning magic will be missed.

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!

I had a crazy Saturday/Sunday schedule.  I spent about 10 hours with Jean & James at their wedding.  Came home, crashed, woke up and drove to Tyler to hang with Kristen & Brandon at their smokin’ hot Villa di Felicita wedding for about 12 hours.  Here are a few quick images from each with tons of blog love to come later this week.


Kristen & Brandon also had plenty of Mug Machine goodness happening at their wedding.

The guest at Katherine & Sean’s wedding may have enjoyed The Mug Machine more than any so far.  Everyone kept coming back through for another set of images.  I had a blast shooting these and loved seeing the combinations and ideas that everyone came up with.

The preacher man.  Follow him on twitter
The grandparents ROCKED the Mug Machine.

Another fantastic shot of the grandparents.


There were a TON of Aggies at this wedding.  I found a few of the Longhorn faithful and we had fun.

There were FIVE past AlexM couples at this wedding. Some of them left the wedding early.  Those who stayed late get some blog love. :)  Here are Davi & Marcie.  Marcie is great with child.

I had a great time at the Villa di Felicita in Tyler, TX shooting Katherine & Sean’s wedding.  Here are just a few of my favorites from the day.

Katherine& her dad share a treat from the candy bar.

The tasty and fancy cakes were done by the umber talented ladies over at Edible Art.

Some First Look goodness.

The flower girl spent a few minutes scratching Katherine’s back and relaxing her before the ceremony.


If you look over to the right of the photo you can catch a glimpse of RuthAnne.  She was rockin’ the harp and did a swell job.  You should book her for your wedding.

Of all the weddings I have shot at the Villa di Felicita, this was the first I ever saw or heard an airplane fly over.  I’m assuming it was heading towards the island for the LOST series finale.

CMB DJs kept everyone dancing the whole night long.


The Mug Machine was also at the wedding so be on the lookout for those later this week.
