Stacey + Sean | wedding

Stacey was a bridesmaid in Kristen & Michael's wedding last summer, and we were excited when she called us to photograph hers! Stacey & Sean were married at Christ United Methodist Church in Plano with a fun-filled dancing-packed reception at the Los Rios Country Club. After the ceremony we got the formals done really fast, so we were able to get a lot of awesome shots of the 2 of them - and to add to the awesomeness, the sky was amazing. Then it was off to the party!

Can't you just hear them all going "aww..."





















Sean watches Stacey come down the aisle:









I didn't even tell them to kiss each other; they're just that sweet:





We took some pictures on the golf course when we got to Los Rios:



And the sky was amazing:









The whole wedding party joined us for a few shots:

Stacey and Sean, thank you for letting us be part of your big day!

Sarah + Ryan

I decided I wanted some extra practice after the workshops I took, so I could keep everything fresh on my mind. Our friends Sarah and Ryan graciously agreed to help us out, and we went to Haggard Park and downtown Plano around sunset to take pictures. Sarah & Ryan, thanks again for helping us out!

Jenna + Steve | wedding

We've really enjoyed getting to know Jenna and Steve, and we've been looking forward to their wedding! They had planned an outdoor ceremony at Fossil Creek Country Club, but the weather had different plans. So instead they were married inside the country club, but it was still beautiful with a huge window and a view of the grounds.  They're both wonderful people, and so obviously in love; it was so sweet to witness their marriage. And they had a great party to celebrate!





I had to include a picture of their dogs, George and Penelope:







Jenna specifically requested this shot, and I love the way it turned out:



A close-up of her beautiful dress:



The adorable flower girls checking themselves out in the mirror:



Too cute:













The ringbearers stayed entertained and were always up for more pictures:







Luckily the rain let up so we were able to get some pictures outside:







They changed into Converse for the reception:



For their first dance, Jenna and Steve planned a surprise choreographed dance - the audience totally loved it:





Reception details:







I had lots of fun with the rings!





They packed fun little bags for the kids, and these cool glow things were in there:





They had a photobooth where the guests could take pictures:





And they planned a big group shot with all the guests  - here's what Darek got shooting from the side:



Steve wanted us to get a shot of the rings with the Converse, which we gladly did:







Jenna and Steve - congratulations, and thanks for letting us be part of your wonderful day!

Lighting Workshop

I spent last weekend at a fun workshop, learning cool stuff about dramatic lighting. The workshop was put on by TriCoast Photography from Houston, and it was at the old flour mill in McKinney, which was an amazing location! Here are a few of the shots I got throughout the weekend:
