Angie & Brady - Will Rogers Theater

Another Beautiful Day on Saturday. I'm telling you, September and October are the months to get married in Oklahoma. I have had so many gorgeous days in these months. I had a great time at some super stylish venues on Saturday. Here are some of my favorite shots from the day. Of course the rest will be available soon.

Check back soon for a slideshow (if I can get to it before "baby day")

Here are some engagement photos from a while back:
Angie and Brady did a cool slideshow of engagment and life history photos during their dances. Then I followed it up with a slideshow from the wedding day. It is so cool to see the bride and groom and all the guests love the photos from the day. It always is a great way for family and friends to see my work too. So to the really cool couples I met and talked to about shooting your engagements, proposals, weddings, modeling portfolios and family portraits, I would love to work with you. Very cool people!

Kauai Wedding Featured Album

For all you blog fans out there. (I confess I don't know who you are cause you don't comment...sniff, sniff :( I have posted below an album I designed for a studio sample of the wedding I shot in Kauai in May. I am not a very good marketer given that I only previously had a couple images from such a gorgeous place.
With my new slideshows, you can click on the grid button to see the images one at a time. The music is some really chill stuff I found and loved to listened to while in Kauai.

Just click on the image to view show.

glad your here...

I hope you enjoy keeping up with some recent shoots and happenings. If your new, I hope you'll make your way to the beginning at some point and get up to date with everything. And, I would love to hear from you so comment away!

I just got back from an awesome wedding in Boulder. It was such a fun weekend with friends and family of the bride and groom coming from Chicago to New York to Germany. It was at the super stylish St. Julien Hotel right at the bottom of the Flat Irons Mountains. Here are some of my favorites.
