Tiffany & Andrew Tied the Knot


Tiffany & Andrew Friedrich tied the knot on June 7th at Old City Park. I had never shot at Old City Park, and it was a blast. Tiffany & Andrew's wedding was so fun and colorful. And yes, I do believe Old City Park IS haunted. Check out the blurry figure (aka Lurking Spirit) in the black & white close-up of Tiffany & Andrew. Woooooo! That is actually some sort of female scarecrow with a bonnet. I don't understand. But she turned up in every single photo! Just kidding. But yes, Old City Park is haunted. Tiffany will testify to eerie occurences in the old Victorian house where the girls got ready. Once the wedding started, however, there were no ghostly occurrences, so that's a good thing. Congrats to Tiffany & Andrew! Your wedding was fabulous!

Something Blue...Actually, Everything Blue!

Laura Fulmer (now Laura Page!) had one request. Bridal portrait in bluebonnets. Before the shoot, I had nightmares about dragging this bride's dress through muddy fields next to highways, truck horns blaring. I was nervous! Luckily, I found a little field of bluebonnets at a nearby college. Blue was the theme of the day. The bride's blue eyes, blue skys, bluebonnets, and even royal blue shoes! This bride has her "something blue" covered.

Tracy & Chad Give Photography a 2nd Chance


I love Tracy's flowing underwater petticoat in the shot below.

Just taking a break at a cafe during the shoot.
Tracy and Chad Sones were married last August. Unhappy with their photographer's work, they contacted me to see if we could set up a shoot with both of them that would capture their personalities and reflect their style. A bridal/couple shoot. It was so much fun. We shot all over Dallas, and had a blast. Tracy wasn't even phased by hopping in the fountains, since her gorgeous dress had already experienced the limelight at their wedding last year. Although we did get in a little trouble with the Fountain Place security guard. Oops!

Tiffany & Gracie Belle

I love a classic profile.Tiffany loves to read. She brought along a couple of her favorite books, and I joked with her about being on a READ poster in public libraries nationwide. Well, here it is.
Tiffany Orsburn (now Tiffany Friedrich) is one of the happiest brides I know. She and I share a great love for our dachsunds, and to my delight, she brought her little dachsund puppy Gracie Belle to her bridal shoot. I was so excited! Even though Gracie was a wiggly little pup, she was a great little model. Full of life and kisses for the beautiful bride.

Lindsey & Jarred Tied the Knot!


Lindsey & Jarred Carter tied the knot in Waxahachie on May 10th. These outdoor shots were a mark of bravery on the bride and groom's behalf. It was the most humid day I have ever experienced. The bride and groom braved the moist heat for the sake of getting some fabulous photos. Thanks for your courage to stick it out, Lindsey and Jarred! And congrats on your marriage!
