Beth and Judd were married at St. Martin's Episcopal Church on January 22, 2011. The ceremony was followed by a fun reception at the Rice Hotel in the Crystal Ballroom. Thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of your beautiful day!
We did two portrait sessions last year of Frances, one shortly after she was born, and another several months after. She was so much fun to photograph. At the first session, she was a little bit restless, and did not want to go to sleep, but we were able to get some beautiful photos inside her nursery. As soon as her dad came home, she lit up with excitement and smiles.
For our second shoot, we went outside to the backyard and took photos on one of Frances' mom's favorite quilts. Frances was full of smiles, and crawled around with such curiosity.
Here are some of my favorites from the shoot. At the end I've posted photos from her nursery...I loved the hot air balloon carousel hanging above Frances' crib...so cool.
I'm catching up on some LONG overdue posts! In October I took baby portraits of Hayden Hedrick just after her 1st birthday. What a joy it was to photograph this sweet baby! She was all smiles playing inside and out in the yard.
I'll be posting tomorrow with photos from another baby portrait session, and if there is time, photos I took of my brother, Joe, and Steve Mimms for their documentary film titled Incendiary.
Here are some of my favorites from Hayden's shoot...
Here is a short movie I made from a series of photos taken during Kate and J.J.'s wedding ceremony this past weekend. I didn't plan on doing a short movie when I mounted my camera behind the flowers and leaves on top of the Chuppah...but when I took a look at what we captured, it seemed like the obvious thing to do.
So I hope you enjoy this little movie...

Melissa and Matt married on October 30, 2010, at the Junior League. The ceremony was held at Westminster United Methodist Church.
I had so much fun working with Melissa and Matt. They were both all smiles during the ceremony, finally tying the knot. Afterwards, they danced with friends and family to the music of one of their favorite bands from college.
Here are some of my favorites from their wedding.
Every once in a while I get the awesome opportunity to work with close family friends of mine. I always consider it a gift to be able to do this. It is so much fun to see and photograph people that I've known for most of my life.
So, when Lauren first contacted me, and said she was going to be marrying a Frazier, I was honored and excited they had contacted me. I've known Bryan and his family for as long as I can remember.
From our engagement session at Minute Maid Park to Lauren's Bridals at Rice University, and through the big day, I had so much fun working with Lauren and Bryan.
One of the highlights of the night was when the Frazier family band took over the stage. It was awesome!
Here are some of my favorites from the day. Thanks, Lauren and Bryan, for having me to photograph y'all's wedding day!
In August of 2010, Elise and David married at the Lakeway Resort and Spa outside of Austin, TX. You might remember Elise from her bridal portraits on the UT campus. Elise and David are both so much fun to be around. They're both such joyful people, and if you spend about two minutes with them, you'll know that they are obviously in love!
Here are some of my favorite images from the day, I hope y'all will enjoy.
Elise and David used Central Market for their cakes, Lakeway Resort and Spa for the venue and food, Bouquets of Austin for the flowers, and Sound Source Entertainment for lighting and a DJ.
