Nia and Eloy had their wedding at Stoney Ridge Villa in Azle, Texas this past Friday and everything went as perfectly as you could hope for in a wedding day. The weather was threatening rain all morning but cleared up just in time for the ceremony and we were able to have an outdoor cocktail hour and beautiful sunset pics on the roof before the reception. Nia and Eloy were a joy to work with and I look forward to working with them again on their family shoot they plan to have in lieu of engagement photos that came with their package. Thank you Nia and Eloy for letting me be a part of capturing ..read more

Kathy and Ryan had their wedding at The Springs Event Venue this past Saturday and despite the cold weather, they truly had the perfect day. Everyone was in high spirits, if not a little nervous (especially Ben, the Groom's brother, who was nervous about his speech but who knocked it out of the park with one of the best delivered best man speeches I've ever seen.) Kathy looked absolutely stunning in her bridal gown, and Ryan looked dapper and handsome in his suit. The ceremony was so touching to witness and their personal vows were so emotional while also being very cerebral at times (I think ..read more

Silo and Oak is a wonderful little venue just southwest of Waco, Texas. It's a cozy little collection of quaint and rustic structures tucked away amongst the ranches and rolling hills of Temple. When I arrived, Amber was in her bridal robe, finalizing the decorations for the reception tables and in good spirits. Shawn had not yet arrived so she quickly showed me around the venue and all the places she was eager to utilize for some pictures, which included the eponymous silo, the old truck they have out front, the doorway to the reception hall, and the swing they have out back. Looking at how b ..read more

When I walked into the bridal dressing room for Cindy and Daniel's micro wedding at the First Rock Fellowship Church in order to introduce myself to the everyone, I was greeted with a surprise. "Mel, the man who just walked in is the photographer." The bride told her sister. "Oh, I thought that would have been obvious with these two cameras and all these lenses," I remarked. "Oh, well my sister is blind," the bride replied, then added "and so am I!" Having never had a blind bride before I quickly realized, as I started to document the getting ready photos, that I was going to have to approach ..read more

Hillary and Jon had their winter wedding at The Flying V Ranch in Decatur Texas this past sunday and it was a truly amazing event with two truly amazing people. They were so in love and so happy the whole entire day and their families were a pleasure to interact with and to photograph. Beauty By Shelley G did an oustanding job with the bridal makeup, and Dj Sean kep the party going hard thoughout the night. I arrived at the event just as the bride and her mother texted me to say how excited they were for the day and that is always a good sign! Excitement and joy are what I live for. I got star ..read more

Madison and Colton had their fall wedding at the beautiful Bella Vita Ranch in Stephensville, Texas. It had rained pretty hard the day before but the day of the wedding was absolutely perfect weather. I started my coverage with some details shots of the bride and groom's wedding bands, then it was time for getting ready pictures as the bride got her hair and makeup done. I got some photos of the groom with his groomsmen as the bride got finished up, then popped back over to her to get her getting into her dress, her jewelry and her veil. The Ceremony went off with just one hitch (see what I di ..read more
