When we met with Genifer and Andy to start planning their wedding, the first thing Genifer told us was that “traditional” bridal portraits were not her style. She wanted to do a “Trash the Dress” session at Galveston after the wedding. Genifer is full of personalty,spunk and true beauty so we knew from the start that she was PERFECT for a trash the dress shoot. We were stoked about this shoot from the moment they were married, and starting planning the date then. We started in an alley on the Strand in Galveston and ended on the beach. We had many onlookers and they were amazed at someone actually taking photos like this in their wedding dress. This shoot was SO much fun and Genifer being the trooper she is made this a great shoot. As you can see from the photos, Genifer is beautiful and had a ROCKIN personality! Genifer, we LOVED working with you and Andy for ya’lls engagements photos, wedding day and your trash the dress session. Thanks for allowing us to be along for the great ride! You two are a PERFECT couple and we love you both! Keep Smilin

We would like to take a moment to acknowledge a special day in our country, Veterans Day! As we try to keep all of our fans and friends up to date with our lives and work through this blog, we feel we need to take a moment to acknowledge the men and women that have selflessly served our country. Becca & I have a bunch of of family and friends that are either Veterans in the military or currently active in the military and we appreciate their service. Recently, we attended the military funeral of one of my uncles at Ft Sam in San Antonio. This was not the first time I have attended a military burial, but it was the first time I had been to a Military Cemetery and it was an awesome sight. Seeing all of the markers lined up for as far as you can see was a very moving experience. It definitely helps you understand the number of people who have given their lives for our country. We are thankful for all of the Veterans who gave their time and their lives to ensure we have the freedoms and security that alot of us take for granted in this country. It is an honor for us to be able to acknowledge the sacrifice that our military personnel gave and are currently giving for us.
I would like to mention a local resource for our veterans which is the Lone Star Veterans Association. We heard about this group on the radio and thought it would be good to give them a plug here. They are an association that is not only for veterans of the old wars but they readily accept the Vets from our more recent conflicts. They are working to assist Vets as they transition from active duty back to civilian life.
Since this is primarily a photo blog we would like to add a couple of shots from a several of our Military Grooms. Becca and I thank all of you for your service.

Thanks for your service Veterans, we Salute You!!

We first met Dana and her Mom at an open house for Cindy’s Palace and were VERY excited when she called and wanted us to be apart of her and Will’s special day. They were married at the First Baptist Church of Rosenberg. This is a beautiful church with the most magnificent stained glass. After the wedding, Dana and Will were so gracious to make time for us to capture some memorable photos of the two of them after the wedding. The reception was also held at Cindy’s Palace in Rosenberg. We are always excited to go back to Cindy’s Palace because they do an excellent job in making sure every wedding is filled with loads of fun!! We always look forward to having a glass, OK……..or many glasses of Cindy’s Palace iced tea….it ROCKS!!! We would like to shout out to Nancy at Cindy’s Palace for always making sure everything runs smoothly. Dana and Will were so much fun to work with! We wish you two a lifetime of love, happiness and contentment. May God continue to bless you always. Keep Smilin

Elisha and Chris had a really tight schedule due to living in Austin and both of them working in positions that limited the days we could schedule their shoot. Basically they only had one shot at getting to Houston and getting their engagement session photographed in time to have prints for the wedding. No one expected Chris to come down with a stomach virus the day before and he was really wiped out on the day of the shoot. He was a real trooper and pushed through the session so he would not let Elisha down. Adding to the day, Chris’s groomsmen essentially told him that an e-session was the equivalent of getting your wisdom teeth pulled without anesthetic while under a Chinese water torture. Crazy guys! Elisha was so sweet and caring to Chris throughout the shoot and together they both made the session a real pleasure. After it was all over, we asked Chris if it was as bad as his friends told him and he told us it wasn’t bad at all and he had a lot of fun in spite of feeling so poorly. Here are few shots from their fun session!
We had an awesome time with Elisha in Chris as we did some photography in and around Katy, Texas. Keep an eye out for upcoming photos of their beautiful wedding at St Michael Catholic Church and the reception at the Courtyard on St James!

After photographing Katie’s E-session 6 months ago, we were stoked to finally get her back in front of the camera for her bridal portraits. Katie is a natural in front of the camera and super easy to work with. Katie could SO get paid big bucks to model, she is that gorgeous! Katie was up for anything including climbing on top of a bar, laying on tile floors and any other crazy idea we came up with. From stately and formal to fun and sassy, Katie was willing to be our model for the day.
She wanted to do her bridals at Safari Texas Ballroom, which is where her reception was being held. The venue is huge and has alot of different areas that allow us to get a bunch of different looks. The first photo is one of our favs from the session.

Amazing eyes!
