Tina & Tiffany's Ceremony at the Interfaith Peace Chapel in Dallas

Raelyn was back up at the Interfaith Peace Chapel to photograph some bouquets for Travis-Lee Moore of The Functions Event Group and wouldn't you know it there was a wedding! Brides Tina and Tiffany made news headlines back in June when they had difficulty finding a venue that allowed same-sex ceremonies but their search was ended when they discovered the Interfaith Peace Chapel. And it was a lovely ceremony, with Tina and Tiffany's daughters in the wedding party and plenty of support from family and friends. Congratulations and best wishes Tina and Tiffany!

Tina and Tiffany do their part for the NO H8 campaign.

Interfaith Peace Chapel in Dallas

We love doing bridal shows because not only do we get to meet a lot of great brides, we meet a lot of great vendors too! At the recent Dallas Bridal Show we had the great fortune of having our booth next to the new Interfaith Peace Chapel, where we met the director Brian Parman and also Travis-Lee Moore of The Functions Event Group. We had a great time chatting with them during the show and they invited us to go to their open house to check out the venue. We did and it is fantastic! The building was designed by Philip Johnson and is gorgeous and modern with unique architecture, interesting windows, and a huge ceremony/reception space. Travis-Lee did a wonderful job providing decor for the evening. We also enjoyed nibbles from the Warwick Melrose Hotel, Cafe Express, Sweet Memories, lounge furniture from DFW Lounge Rentals, and music from Adam Wilmore of Encore Productions. It was a great evening and we look forward to shooting an event there soon!

Out in the country engagement photos with Ashley & Trevor

We took a little roadtrip to Anna, TX for Ashley & Trevor's engagement session at Trevor's parents' home. Trevor had mentioned we could take photos in the barn and when he said barn we pictured cluttered, dark, and dusty. Instead it was more like a game room/hangout/display area for country antiques! Awesome! Ashley & Trevor's dog Macy joined us for the shoot as well, although she mostly spent her time running around and playing with sticks. We couldn't really blame her though as it was a fantastic day and Trevor's family land was really great. So much wide open space, a nice little lake, and when the sun started to set it was just perfect! We had a great time and can't wait for the wedding day in June!

Checking in on Cayley and her new little sister Olivia!

We photographed Cayley a few months ago and thought she was a real cutie. Fast forward to today, and she's even cuter if that's possible! She's also now a proud big sister of Olivia, who's well on her way to becoming a cutie patootie too. Olivia was a little weary of the camera when we first got there, but after a quick nap she was all smiles and giggles. Cayley entertained us while Olivia was napping, we played with stickers, danced to Mickey Mouse, and ran all around the house. Whew, after that it was time for us to have a nap!

Meet Charlotte, Baby on the Go!

Meet Charlotte, who just had her first birthday recently! She has been walking for a few weeks now and it is already hard to keep up with her! She gave us a real workout following her around with the camera. It was so worth it though, just look at that smile! Thanks so much to mom and dad Stephanie and Kieron, we hope you like the pics! She's a real cutie!

Gearing up for the Dallas Bridal Show

Wedding Photography Favorites 2010

Every new year we ask our wedding couples what their top five favorite photos are and to let us know why they are their favorites and the story behind them. We love hearing the stories behind the photos and how much they mean to our couples. So with that, here are our couple's faves from 2010. We hope everyone had an amazing New Year, and cheers to our couples who spent their first New Year as husband and wife!
