The Russell's- Dallas, TX Wedding Photographer

Have I mentioned that Texas Summer's are HOT, HOT, HOT? Oh I have? About 2 posts ago? Well, they are, always have been. Though I think as I've gotten older they've been taking their toll on me more and more. This summer was by far the worst due to pregnancy hormones. Yep. Miserable.

But, attending Kayla and Matthew's southern wedding made it bearable, nay... enjoyable! The colors, the boots, and the rustic vintage inspired dress were to die for. I even considered buying a pair of boots... I'm still considering actually.

Alas, the summer is over (thankfully) and Kayla and Matthew have been happily married for nearly 3 months. Hopefully this will not be the last you see of them.

Kayla & Matthew- Dallas, TX. Engagement Photographer

Kayla and Matthew are about as southern adorable as they come. Kayla went to Texas Tech and Matthew studied at University of Texas. They now live in North Texas with their little girl Atty-Ray (a southern name if I have ever heard one)!

We may have done a little trespassing to get these shots, but what's life without a little danger? Someone kindly left their hay bales out, unfenced, and we took full advantage. One of the many reasons why I love living and shooting in Texas.

Cody & Cassandra- Dallas, TX Maternity Photographer

Better late that never...

Cody and Cassandra contacted me in July to do a maternity photo shoot for them. Texas summers get to be pretty dang hot, especially in July! You would never guess by looking at their photos that it was 100 degrees outside. Cassandra, 9 months pregnant, made the heat look like no big deal (as I am huffing and puffing all over the nature preserve).

Their little one, Mason, arrived 2 weeks later as cute as can be. Are his parents not as cute as can be?
