The Houmas House is one of my favorite wedding venues. When Megan and I arrived to shoot this wedding, the bride was being made up by Tina with Bridal Beauty Consulting, she did an AMAZING job on the girls. I hate when brides look overdone, Chrissy was very natural and flawless.

Can we just take a minute to talk about how fabulous these shoes are? Fabulous is not a word that I find myself using in everyday conversation but there is no other way to describe these beauties.

It is so true that great things come in small packages. This bracelet had blue gems on the ends and was her something blue.

Tucker and Chrissy opted to do first look. First look is the only option if you want great pictures on your wedding day especially if you are having a wedding at sunset.

What a great looking bridal party! My friend was visiting me while I was editing this wedding and she said “Geez all of her bridesmaids are gorgeous!” I have to agree

I LOVE photographing the grandparents at the wedding. And this is one of my favorite grandparent pictures! I always wonder what grandparents think about during the wedding. Are they remembering their wedding day?

Their first walk as Man and Wife.

I love this room at The Houmas House. As the bridal party is about to enter the reception, they take you into this room for some soup or gumbo.

Jennifer called me to schedule Bridal portraits. They are getting married in Cabo but wanted some images to put up at the reception they are planning for back home. I suggested doing an engagement/bridal/family shoot. They loved the idea, we had originally planned to shoot at a different location and we changed at the last minute. They were up for anything and I sooooo love that! I drug them into a somewhat shady laundromat, then made them climb about 15 feet off the ground onto an old crane and despite Jennifer’s fear of heights they climbed. They Rock!! And to top it off they have the most adorable little girl! I had a hard time choosing what to share. I cannot wait for the wedding so I can share her bridals. I LOVE LOVE LOVE them! Anyway here they are!

How lucky is Scott? He has two beautiful ladies in his life!

I mean seriously, how adorable are they!!??

This is a tiny bit late…. but here are some photos from a wedding back in October. This couple and their guests were SO MUCH FUN! Here are a few fof my favorites. There are some funny dancing ones! These people were cracking me up the ENTIRE reception!

I went to check in with the groomsmen and they were hiding out in the church’s nursery. It just looked funny to me so here they are all having a seat at the kiddie table with a toy.

And the lovely couple!

Here they are looking a little more dignified

See what I mean… fun!

Here are the little people taking a break.

Here are the fancy dancers!

Here is a sneak peek from a wedding I shot with my friend Kim. I’ll show the rest as soon as they are all ready!

For now here is a teaser

How gorgeous is this bouquet!

Cute story… These two fist exchanged phone numbers at his sister’s wedding that I shot. Even funnier, I remember when his mom and sister were at the studio ordering their albums and they both chose a photo that had these two in the background, and said I hope they stay together because they are in the wedding album together….. and yes they did  

When I asked Ashlee what she had in mind for the photos, she said she trusted my judgement, but that she didn’t like lots of girly stuff or flowers.Something a little more vintagey (did I just make up a word?). So on my way out I remembered my friend had this awesome bike. I swung by and got it and well, you will see it in a few of the pictures. I think it made the photo-session.

And last but not least…. Her favorite
