...finally, the rest of the story. Keely and Patrick's full engagement post!

keely and patrick-teaser

It was a dark and stormy morning, frigid winds blew out of the North and while the rest of North Texas were inside their houses, huddling underneath blankets and scratching their heads why it was 40 degrees in Texas in May...Keely, her fiance' Patrick and I were out in the midst of it all taking photographs! Melodrama aside, this past Sunday I spent the morning with a wonderful couple traipsing through Trinity Park and photographing an awesome couple. It was cold, but they were troopers throughout. Below is a sneak peak, more are soon to follow.

terra and eddie-engagements

Terra and Eddie are engaged! Loved these pictures. Had a lot of fun with these two! We took pics around an old historical building in down town Fort Worth. It used to be a public market of sorts, but since has been fenced in because part of the building has burnt down (!), not cool, it's one of my personal favorite landmarks of the city. But, we worked around the chain linked fences to get these and lots more great shots.

krista and ano

Sorry I've been falling so behind on my blog posts, been crazy busy! I finally found the time to post these of Krista and Ano! Great friends of mine who are getting married next year-and guess who the photographer is? No. Not him, ME! We had a great time walking around UTA, the campus they met, then dated, then proposed or got proposed to on. It was a beautiful day, I hope they enjoyed it half as much as I did.

So, this last shot is a huge fav of mine. I love the look and feel of the entire setting. Like some hot and sultry dive found outside some villa somewhere hot and sultry. Okay, so stereotypes and locations totally escape me right now, but wherever it is I'm thinking about, this looks like it was taken there! I added a cross-process filter to give a bit more of a fashion edge, but I love this shot in any light.

aimee and justin

A quick teaser of Aimee and Justin's engagements we took in Livingston, Louisiana! I had a great time with these two and the images we got are freakin' amazing. More to come.

jenny and john, take two

Here's a few pics from Jenny's second engagement session at Trinity Park (the first were at the bowling alley). I'm still working on this one particular photo we took that's a shout out to Bruce Campbell and The Army of Darkness (soon to come!). Until then...

ashley and neal

I've never shot at the water gardens down town, so when Lazer (aka: Ashley) and Neal asked me too, I of course said yes-but had my reservations about the location it being so monochromatic (at times) and angular. But I was completely wrong, and their engagement session proves it! I love every shot, but I don't want to give them all away, so here's a few favs.

A quick peak at some upcoming engagements... stay tuned...

jenny and john, engagements

Jenny and John are engaged! Here's more (as promised) from their engagement session we did at Cityview Lanes off of Oakmont Blvd. A hot spot for them, they bowl every week, so we asked why not take some engagements there? I love the blue aquatic background, great for the colors they were wearing, and a quick thanks to the lanes for letting me shoot in their alley, I appreciate it!

A sneak peak at Jenny and John's engagement session. Just a teaser! More on the way...

Kayla and Dustin

Hi everyone, excuse the brief hiatus there but I took a little time off to work on the house a bit and spend a little time in Louisiana with my family for Easter. I hope your holiday was great and that everyone ate as much chocolate as one could. Those Reese's eggs...holdmeback. Anyway, it's back to work and before I post my Easter pics I've got to take care of a little business first. Starting with Kayla and Dustin.


We went to the Japanese Gardens here in Fort Worth, which was beautiful. The morning was cold and windy but they really did a good job making it look not so.

This is one of my favorites. I love everything about this shot, the light, the pose, the waterfall in the background. They look great.

A little bit country...

Amber and Blaine

Hey, forgive me if I don't have your name spelled correctly Blaine, but there's just so many ways it can go and I never bothered to find out the correct one. Anyway-here are a few sneak peeks at your engagements! They. Are. Incredible! I had so many favorites and you guys were so much fun to photograph. We'll see you guys soon and I hope you're doing well.

me and ash part II

So, here are some...um, engagements from last Sunday. Taking these pictures was the way I was able to set up the actual proposal. So, she didn't realize these were 'engagments' until later. But, sorry for the delay, here are a few of my favorites.

me and ash

I am still editing the pics we took this past Sunday...but here's a snack picture just to tide you over.

raleighster

Here's an extra from Katherine and Raleigh's engagement session. Katherine wasn't quite ready for the moment so I just aimed my camera at Raleigh and hit the shutter. This was the result. I think it's friggin' awesome.

katherine and raleigh

So, Kat and Raleigh, I know you guys have been on pins and needles, so I stayed up late to get these posted as soon as possible. I hope you love them!
