Lake Wedding

Sometimes my relatives get married and reluctantly ask me to photograph their weddings, not that they don't want me to shoot it, rather, they'd like the 'family discount'. Who wouldn't? I love free stuff myself. The truth is, I can't afford to shoot free weddings on a regular basis but I am happy to do it because it's a way to share my gifts & talents with loved ones and isn't that what it's all about? I'd shoot everyone's wedding for free if I could - maybe I could get free food, electricity, housing, etc., too? Well, my husband's father was getting re-married in Fallon, NV, and not only were we guests I got to shoot the festivities. It was a low-key event, but sometimes those are the most fun. We had a blast! It was at a cute little church on an Indian Reservation near a Naval Base amidst mountains.

Kevin Schmidt's Ride

Last summer, one of Flower Mound's motorcycle cops's was hit by a motorist while in pursuit of another. He was seriously injured and there was a motorcycle benefit ride involving hundreds of volunteers. Since I love documentary work this was a perfect opportunity for me to contribute. These days Kevin is doing much better!

Jennifer's Wedding Day

This was an intimate weddin with maybe 30 guests but it was so sweet and elegant. It felt like being invited to a very special & private party.

Something with Personality

Yes, I do those boring professional headshots BUT I prefer to mix it up with a little personality, too, this singer with Diva G & High Maintenance was a fun one!

Erika's Seniors

I love shooting Senior's in high school. It's like a cool modeling shoot & it makes them feel good because they know I'm trying to make them look good. Erika was a great model, she did everything I suggested & more. We walked down Main St. in Grapevine & it was a lot of fun!

Carl Wedding

Here a few random favorites from my portfolio of the Carl Wedding. We did the bridals at the Gaylord Texan in Grapevine & the ceremony & reception were at Reflections on Spring Creek in Plano.

Christina

I shot this at Chandor Gardens in Weatherford on Sept. 29, 2007. The bride saw a similar pose on their brochure so this is our version. Well, one of several but they were all great!

Vietnam Memorial

Of course, this is always a somber place. There was a letter written from a soldier who basically was apologizing to his superior officer who had died that he hadn't lived the life he should have. It was like he was taking inventory of his life and trying to make amends. It was very touching.

Inside the Lincoln Museum

Cool Stuff at the Lincoln Memorial

It's hard to see but there is a marker for where Martin Luther King Jr. gave his famous speech. Also, the little museum had cool little things.
