{adorable couple}

This is yet another rained out, make-up session. But, it was worth the wait as they are PRECIOUS!! I am so excited about working with them on their December wedding.

And, M & D, I failed to explain that the files are compressed for the upload to the blog. I can't wait for you to see them in your gallery when it is complete as they will be much more clear. But, I wanted to provide you with a glimpse in the meantime.

I had so much fun with both of you!!!

{wedding at the farm}

Here are a few pictures from my brother's wedding. I know Jessica has been absolutely dying to see these....but so patient. I have learned, never host a wedding and be the photographer. ha! It was a big day, but worth all of it. It was very simple, a little vintage and full of love and laughter. Here is a glimpse of purely random pulls.....

Getting ready

Her sweet Daddy seeing her for the first time. It was precious!




Her eyes are gorgeous!






















And, yes, we hung a chandilier from a tree.....


As we are totally southern....we had to have sweet tea!





















This one is precious....he is standing in front of our daddy's truck. James was only three when our dad died - so before it got too dark - we headed to the truck. I have no doubt he was smiling down!



Congratulations James and Jessica and welcome to the family Jess!

{beautiful evening in muskogee, oklahoma}

My next few days will be beyond crazy, so I wanted to get a quick sneak peek up for Jill and Dusty. Last night was PERFECT! The details were amazing, the colors were a dream, the bride was breathtaking and her groom very handsome, the children were full of fun & life and the joy of the families was evident. Thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of your special day. I hope I captured sweet moments that you will always treasure!



Is that not the cutest thing ever??
The girls acting like silly girls and having a ball! I love me some girl time as I have a boy-filled home.


Precious!! Look at those middle two - no clue chaos was surrounding them!














There was a perfect field just behind the church. Jill was a brave bride and at that point did not care if her dress got a little dirty. But, even though it has been raining for days, her bridesmaids did a great job in keeping it up and clean. I think you will be very happy we went outside for these. My very favorite place to photograph - the middle of a pasture!

Different versions.....







And little sister repositioned Jill once we decided to leave for the reception for these. Poor Dusty was starving......but, I think he'll be happy we took a few more. Jill - you are stunning!




Oh, my favorite..........Mason jars! Perfect!








The reception venue was so fun!





My very, very best wishes Dusty and Jill!!
