Lori's Bridals

Before Lori threw away her dress (yes, I'm fairly sure that is what she did!), we headed out for a Sunday afternoon in Coppell and Farmer's Branch to capture some shots in her dress. I hope you can tell that this shoot was about having a good time!




The last month has been filled with photography! Now I am finally caught up on the editing and posting of these fun-filled times. I have said more than once lately, "I really just want to go home and finish up the photos." I am so thankful that I found this hobby and that I have had more opportunities to improve and play. Also, I am glad that you stopped by to take a peak! Let me know you were here! :)

Michelle and Heath

Last weekend, I had the opportunity to do my first Engagement Shoot! It was actually a dueling photographer adventure with Lori. We had a good time trying out some new things--and trusted favorites--with Michelle and Heath. The sweet, laid back couple will be wed in December. Since Grapevine holds history and future memories, it was the perfect location for their photos. Thanks for letting us be a part of this special time for you! Congratulations Michelle and Heath!

560

I took advantage of a Social Studies conference at the Hyatt Regency in Downtown Dallas by combining it with two of my favorite things, eating and photography. My partner in education (and crime) and I switched from professional mode to Friday Night Girls Night Out following our meetings. As a result I can highly recommend the sunset view of Dallas, Texas from 560 in Reunion Tower. The atmosphere of the new Wolfgang Puck restaurant 560 feet above the city is classy without being overdone. The food is a delicious modern twist on Asian cuisine. I must admit though that my favorite was the Chocolate Souffle for desert. Since we did not have reservations for this last minute dining experience, we were seated in the bar area. This provided a unique view of downtown through my lens.
