Weddings are so much fun to photograph because they are most often filled with joy and laughter. Some of my favorite pics from last week's wedding are full of emotion. Here is a glimpse into the Parrott wedding:


Dad whispers sweet nothings to his little girl before she walks down the aisle.


Mom awaits with anticipation and a little anxiety as she looks for her daughter to beam in her white wedding dress.

Beryle looks up to Brian with admiration as her maid of honor delights in their love.

The couple rejoices in being anounced husband and wife!

The couple's private moment before entering the reception

A daughter's dance with her dad, what could be more joyful?

A congrat and good-bye kiss from granddad, a must have!

And this is totally a special request for Brian's mom! LOL, hope you like it!!

My portrait sessions this week have generated many different emotions. I started the week with a NILMDTS call for a family who lost their baby girl at 34 weeks due to a cord accident. I grieved for strangers who soon became greatful recipients of the gift of remembrance photos. My next shoot was of a lovely family of girls ready to do a portrait for their Father's Day gift. What a joy it was to work with this family again. They first came into my life three months ago as a grieving, yet hopeful family to a newborn with trisomy eighteen that only had two months of life within her. Today, I finally had the opportunity to meet one of my husband's co-workers, an Austin firefighter, and his family. They are also living each day searching for hope as they await the arrival of a 30 week in gestation, baby girl. They have been told that nothing can save this baby within or outside of the womb. We are all hoping and praying for a miracle. In the meantime, I'd like to give them a glimpse of the beauty of life that surrounds them in each other! I hope you all enjoyed this session as much as I did.

Forget trying to get these little ones to a portrait studio, especially when you have a colicky one. I had the awesome opportunity to do an in-home portrait session of these twin boys approaching their 3 week birthday. The boys slept a lot more than what we expected but that made for some easy manipulation. Mom wanted to know, "Who are these boys, and what did you do with mine?" Here is a sneak peek at the newborn session:
