Can I just say how much I love this couple?  Katlyn & Matt are so great together and they are so much fun to be around.  They were married this past weekend at TCU’s Robert Carr Chapel.  I think it was a long morning for both of them because they were both very anxious and excited to see each other and finally be married.  They followed their beautiful ceremony with a rockin’ reception at The Ashton Depot in Downtown Fort Worth.  Both Katlyn and Matt are big into wine and cigars, so naturally that theme occurred at their reception with wine corks for place card holders and their very own cigar roller.  Please take a minute to enjoy some of my favorite images from their beautiful Fort Worth wedding.

I had the chance to photograph Allyson and Stephen this weekend.  Allyson lives in Georgia and Stephen is from Arlington and just got out of the Army only a couple of weeks ago.  These two made me laugh throughout the whole session.  The just kept giggling and being extremely cute.  Stephen is hilarious and kept making me fall for his jokes.  They will be getting married in June at the beautiful Robert Carr Chapel and Fort Worth City Club.  Please enjoy some of my favorites from their Fort Worth engagement session.

Riley & James were married this last weekend at the First United Methodist Church in Downtown Fort Worth.  They had a very small and intimate ceremony with only family present.  They followed their ceremony with a family lunch reception at the Reata.  Please enjoy some of my favorite images from their special day.

Katie and Leo were one of those couples that you just absolutely have a blast with. Their wedding at Robert Carr Chapel and the Petroleum Club Ft. Worth was filled with some very special moments, especially with their parents. Katie’s dad had all of us laughing the whole day and I just loved the sweet moments they shared together during their Father-Daughter dance. It definitely made me cry. They also had some cute getting away vehicles that were unique to them. A fun, bright red trolley car took them around during the day, and then at night a big red fire engine picked them up for their exit. Definitely one of my favorite moments throughout the day! These two really had some great vendors, like Bliss Bridal and we rocked out to the Signature Band at the reception. I really enjoyed getting to know these two and I feel as though I went out with a bang as this will be my last wedding with Lightly. I wish them all of the best! Here are a few of my favorites from their wedding day.

Love this photo of Katie and her Mom as she puts on her dress.

And her Dad as they get ready to leave the hotel.

Katie was all giggles as she read Leo’s letter to her.

One of Tracy‘s past clients were in the bridal party, Kirsten and Ryan.

My favorite shot of the night! Her Dad being silly while they dance their Father-Daughter Dance.

Sweet moment between Leo and his Mom.

LOVE!!

This past weekend Bailey and Ryan were married at Windhill Ranch.  It threatened to rain all day but we were lucky and it held off for their beautiful country wedding.  Please enjoy some of my favorite images from their special day.

Seeing each other for the first time.  Ryan is so happy.

The bridal party had some fun with their stick on mustaches.

Bailey’s mom watching proudly as her daughter shares a first dance with her new husband.

Bailey and Ryan love cheese and wine. They even included it in their engagement portraits so naturally their cake would be made of cheese!

A last dance before their night ended.

This week I had the pleasure of photographing this squishy little 5 day old baby named Elijah Layne. He was born a perfect 8lbs 11oz and 21 inches last week. He is such a blessing to his parents, Korey and Macie and I just love being able to cuddle up on him and give him smooches. These two are so excited to be parents, they could not stop smiling as I took pictures of him. They didn’t even know he was going to be a boy until he was born and the anticipation was killing them! He is perfect. Here are a few of my favorites from their newborn session at our Ft. Worth Studio.

Can you tell these two are Aggie fans?

Last week I hung out with Courtney and her dad at Van Zandt Cottage in Ft. Worth. Courtney is graduating with the class of 2013 and wanted to get her senior portraits made. She was so excited to get dressed up and even did a couple of runway walks for me down “the catwalk”. We had a fun time and she was so much fun to get to know. Her dad constantly had her laughing and dancing. Here are a few of my favorites from her senior portrait session.

LOVE!!

 Love this last shot of her and her Dad. She was so thankful that he gave her this session!

Amy & Jared were married last weekend at the River Ranch in the Historic Stockyards.  I just loved how every detail emphasized their country roots, right down to Amy’s custom made cowboy boots.  Please enjoy some of my favorite moments from their wedding day.

The guys had some fun at the cattle drive in the Stockyards before the ceremony.

I love this cute shot of their son, Rhyder, bringing the rings to his dad.

Sweet moment between mother and son.

I love this moment that Jared shares with his son while taking time to remember his own father.

This past week I had the pleasure of photographing Bailey and Ryan.  They are such a cute couple and when Bailey told me she wanted to have a picnic theme I was pretty excited about it.  She and Ryan had there own little cheese and wine picnic at the Van Zandt Cottage in Fort Worth.  I had so much fun photographing and getting to know them. They will be getting married in October and it is sure to be a beautiful wedding.  Please enjoy some of my favorite images from their Fort Worth Engagement Session.

Lori & DB are such a great couple.  They are so playful and love to make each other laugh and were cracking me up the whole time I was photographing.  One thing I love the most about them is how throughout the entire session they were constantly saying “I Love You” to each other.  It melted my heart and you can definitely see how much they truly love and care for each other.  Not only are they an amazing couple but they have a pretty cool engagement story too.  DB proposed to Lori on a bench in Central Park and everyone in the park stopped to watch and root for them.  It sounds like something right out of a movie!  Lori and DB will be getting married in October and I couldn’t be more excited to photograph their special day.  Please enjoy some of my favorite images from their Fort Worth Engagement Session.
