Understated elegance is what comes to mind when I think of the new Mrs. Ryan Baumgardner. She is a class act and a dear KKG sister of mine. My heart always melts when sweet friends from my past ask me to photograph their weddings. There is no greater compliment than knowing they trust me to capture the love and emotion of the most special day of their life. Elizabeth and Ryan are truly a perfect match and accent one another in such a wonderful way. I've loved getting to watch these two navigate their wedding bliss as I've had the pleasure of documenting their engagement, bridals, and now this lovely east Texas wedding. Godspeed you two.
Thanks to my sweet friends Brittany Jones for second shooting!! You are too much fun to work with and I appreciate your hard work more than you know!!
Moving to Fort Worth has been a blessing in many way. I love our new house, I love the city of Fort Worth, but most of all I love my new friends!!! I met Sarah through my best friend 
This wedding was lovely in every way. I'm currently a big fan of succulents, earth tone linens, and shades of poppy splashed with Tiffany blue. Sarah and Matthew are a match made in heaven. In fact, Matthew is the cousin to one of my best childhood friends, Meg. We used to always joke about the Hall brothers who happened to be twins and whose pictures were displayed on their family fridge. Since 7th grade, all of our friends secretly had imaginary weddings planned with one of the two. When Sarah asked me to photograph her wedding I had never met the groom. We had our initial meeting and she showed me a picture of Matt and I just knew he looked so familiar. Ha, little did I know he was the man behind that very refrigerator picture at Meg's house from so many years ago!! It is such a small world and I feel so fortunate to know Sarah. She and my brother were friends all through school and she is a true gem of a bride. She is so soft spoken and as sweet as she looks. It was a joy to be at their ceremony, as it was one of the sweetest I've seen yet. Thank you both for including me on your wedding day and best wishes in the future!
Celina and Wes were blessed with a beautiful wedding day in the heart of San Antonio. There is nothing better than a fall wedding with what feels like summer weather! We were fortunate to have the beautiful golden hues that November light has to offer, paired with the warm sun-kissed temperatures of the South. Celina and Wes have known each other practically all their lives and were high school sweethearts. Celina attended TCU and Wes went to A&M, but they still managed to maintain a relationship that would make it to the altar after all these years!! These two are truly so in love and are a stunning couple in every way. They were surrounded by wonderful friends and family who showed up to support and celebrate this union in style. The reception was unreal and the Garza's hosted an elegant seated dinner and an incredible party accompanied by the band The Pictures (who played at our wedding in 2009, truly the best wedding band around)! It was a joy to see Celina and Wes so happy and in love. Weddings like this just confirm why I love photography so much.
