Overton Hotel and Garden and Arts Center Bridal Shoot.Anjelica

This bridal shoot was special. It was special, because I knew Anjelica when she was in high school, which has been like five years ago or so. She is now a college graduate and just got married last weekend. She makes one gorgeous bride thats for sure!!We did her shoot at Overton Hotel for the first half and then moved on to the Garden and Arts Center in Lubbock. She was absolutely stunning.

Just look at her!

Also, a HUGE thanks to my sweet friend Linda Schilberg for helping me with this shoot.

Heritage Hills Oklahoma City Bridal Shoot.Kristen

Kristen and Jacob got married this weekend in Oklahoma. Congratulations to you two! A few weeks back I went up there for her bridal shoot and she took me to Heritage Hills. Gorgeous gorgeous homes!! Amazing architecture and a beautiful bride equaled to a fabulous shoot. Her dress was custom made and was perfectly fit for Kristen by a very crafty seamstress in Oklahoma.

Remember Kristen and Jacob's engagement session?

Underground Embassy Bridal Shoot.Whitney

Whitney came down from Indiana for her bridal shoot. We went to one of the coolest places in Clovis, the Underground Embassy. It is an art gallery showcasing Drew Merritt's work and a look into his mind. It is an amazing backdrop to have for a bridal shoot and I was so thankful when they gave us permission to use their place for Whitney's session.Whitney and her husband were married in June in Snyder, Texas at the Windmill Ranch Preserve.

Whitney you were a beautiful bride the day of your bridal shoot and a beautiful one the day you got married. I love your style and the way everything turned out! I look forward to sharing your wedding with the internet world soon.

Snyder Texas Wedding.Eric and Whitney

You gotta love Texas on a super hot day-not really, but I did love Eric and Whitney's wedding!The image on the left is just one of the many great finds Whitney found as she explored for vintage, and antique pieces for their wedding decor. The image on the right is one of my favorites. They were giving each other their gifts and Whitney teared up as she opened the heart shaped locket Eric had given her.

Thank you Lord for the gorgeous day. Thank you Maggie and Micah for being a stunning couple and so easy to work with and photograph.

Maggie and Micah met while they were both attending Texas Tech University and will be getting married in July. Congrats to you two :)

One of the things I loved about this couple is they would laugh together, flirt with one another, and became so natural in front of the camera. I mean, look at them...they look so great together!

Brief history of barn/church-- The Moye Chapel was moved to its existing location in 1915. Land on which the church was originally built was owned by Dick Moye-hence the name, Moye Chapel. Dick Moye was an early sheriff of Curry County, New Mexico. He wore a handle bar mustache, a big black cowboy hat, with his pants tucked in his tall black boots. His picture is still int the sheriff's office of the Curry County Courthouse along with other early law officers. The Moye Chapel was used as a church and community social center but never a school. The church held many after church picnics, ice cream socials and singings. The chapel was moved to its existing location after being purchased for 300 dollars and then began being used as a hay barn. The old church was moved on iron wheel dollies about 18" high, 4 wheels on each dolly with 8 wheels on each side of the building. Four head of horses on the cable that ran block and tackle and four head of horses on the anchor wagon. Later a shed was built on the church barn out of an old dance hall and parts of old box cars. The old barn chapel has stood for many years and has been a popular subject for artists and photographers as well as still serving a useful purpose as a barn.
