Botanic Gardens Fort Worth Lightly Photography Sarah and John Wood Amanda McCollum Outdoor Wedding 0014 Sarah & John {Married} at Fort Worth Botanic Gardens

 

I am so excited to share Sarah & John’s wedding!  They were married this last Saturday at the Fort Worth Botanic Gardens.  It was a small and intimate ceremony in the Fuller Gardens that included just them and their family.  The ceremony was beautiful and you could feel all the love they have for each other as they said their vows and were constantly exchanging little looks and smiles to one another.  John’s two daughters, Olivia and Isabella, were the lovely bridesmaids and had big smiles on their faces throughout the whole ceremony.  I have so enjoyed getting to know this amazing couple and their family.  They are a blast to be around and I had a wonderful time with them while photographing their engagement and now their wedding.  Please enjoy some of my favorite images from their wedding day.

Megan and Samuel had an intimate wedding this past weekend that was a true family affair. Megan’s sisters and brother in laws served in the bridal party and everyone in the family was pitching into help the day of. Megan and Samuel had an intimate wedding at OW Ranch with many of their friends and family coming in from out of town to celebrate with them. Megan and Samuel first met many years ago at Syracuse University and within those first few months of dating Samuel gave Megan a promise ring that she wore around her neck on their wedding day. I loved all the little personal touches they had like that on their wedding day. Here are some of my favorites from their Granbury Wedding.

Brooke & Nicholas are an adorable couple who are getting married later this month in a ceremony at a private residence. Brooke and Nicholas met while living in Boston. When I met them they told me they wanted their wedding to be laid back and be a party with a wedding. I took them to some urban walls to match their laid back feel. Here are some of my favorites from their Fort Worth Engagement session.

Last weekend we had so much fun shooting Easter themed mini sessions that were filled with bold and bright colors! We had a fabulously styled set by Birds of a Feather Events and yummy treats for the kids to eat. It was so much fun having all the kids show their unique expressions and just having fun! Peepz, our resident bunny rabbit even had fun and was a definite hit! . We are so excited about our plans or upcoming mini’s as well. Stay tuned for information about an outdoor kids/family date next month just in time for Mothers Day! And then coming in July a classic Americana summer themed & styled session!Here are a few of our favorites from the sessions.

There is a saying that rain is good luck on your wedding day and if that’s the case Casseday and Kevin have a lot coming their way.  Even though outside was dreary inside the day was bright with celebration! Kevin and Casseday got married in the beautiful Royal Lane Baptist Church surrounded by candlelight. They then had a rocking reception at The Warwick Melrose Hotel where they danced the night away bringing out sunglasses, poppers and glow sticks! Even some of the guests got me dancing on the dance floor.  They day was completed with the following vendors!

This week I had the privilege to photograph not only an amazing couple, but a wonderful soon-to-be family.   Sarah and John are such a fun and easy going couple.   I had a great time getting to know them and John’s daughters, Olivia and Isabella.  I love that I got to include Olivia and Isabella in some of the photos because they were so giggly and excited to be there.  Sarah and John will be getting married at the Fort Worth Botanic Gardens next weekend and I couldn’t be more excited to photograph what is sure to be a beautiful wedding.  Please check out some of my favorite images from their engagement session.

Lightly Photography Fort Worth Engagement Session Botanic Gardens Downtown 0001 Megan & Samuel {Engaged} at Fort Worth Botanic Gardens and Downtown!

I got to spend a beautiful afternoon with Megan and Samuel this past weekend. We had been nervously watching the weather since it had stormed all weekend but we were blessed as it cleared up for our session.  We started at the Fort Worth Botanic Gardens and then went to several buildings in downtown that have beautiful architectural elements.   Their wedding is coming up  later this month and it was great hearing about their plans as they start their new life. They have just purchased a house and told me about their redecorating plans. Megan has painted one of their rooms purple and you know that’s my favorite color.  Here are some of my favorites from their Fort Worth engagement session.

Last week I photographed a wonderful little family. We met up in the stockyards. This family had never had their pictures taken, so it was a blast getting to photograph for them! We had fun feeding the goats and entertaining Kate as she ran around. Here are a few of my favorites from their session.
