    San Antonio Family Portraits ( The Muirs, Whitakers, and Zielkes!)

    Friday, December 21st, 2007

    While in San Antonio I was fortunate to be able to photograph some of our friend’s families. The weather was a bit unpredictable that week so all the sessions were done at their homes. It was great seeing our old friends again and how much their children have grown in just 7 months.

    Here are some of my favorites from all three sessions.

    Christmas Wedding of Lisa & William (and Addie)

    Thursday, December 20th, 2007

    Lisa and William’s wedding was in their home in Ft. Smith with a guest list of 8, not including me. Obviously I’ve been to lots of weddings but out of them all, this one was the most touching and emotional wedding ceremony I’ve had the pleasure of witnessing. Lisa’s daughter, Addie, was included in the ceremony and was even part of the ring exchange as William had a special little ring for her. I think everyone was crying as William gave her the ring recited some vows to her.

    Another cute and touching moment happened just before I left. Addie went running down the hall saying she had to go find her husband! (referring to her new Daddy!) How sweet is that! So that’s the last photo in this series. Addie and her ‘husband’ =)

    On a side note, some photographers refuse to book small weddings because it can eat into profits if they could potentially book a large event (with a large budget) for the same day. Some of the more beautiful and meaningful weddings I’ve photographed have been small intimate ones. I can’t imagine limiting myself to large events and I’m so glad I don’t!

    Thank you William, Lisa, and Addie, for inviting me to celebrate your love for one another. I’ll never forget the experience! Also, thanks for sharing a slice of that delicious cake from Confectionately Yours

    Potter Family Fun

    Thursday, December 20th, 2007

    I drove up to Tulsa to photograph the Potter family at Woodward Park. It’s hard to get two young children to cooperate for photos and to get them BOTH looking at the camera at the same time AND smiling, but we pulled it off! We posed for a few but mostly mom and dad ran around chasing the kiddos and I snapped away. Thanks for a fun afternoon guys!
