It won’t be much longer until Jessi and Bobby are blissfully married instead of blissfully engaged! I’m so excited to shoot their wedding in mid-December because they are seriously so sweet together and fun to be around.
I’m also incredibly excited to be so (almost) caught up on blogging that I’m actually blogging engagement sessions for couples that haven’t already had their weddings!
Here’s a peek into their engagement session from this past summer.
So. much. preciousness.
Yah, Jessi’s a show stopper.
 I hope that the last few weeks leading up to the big day are super-special for you guys, Jessi and Bobby! I’ll be seeing y’all so soon!
Let’s start June off with Erin, Wes and Will’s engagement/family photo session at Big Rocks in Glen Rose. The light was perfect, the water was fine, and the sweet love between this family was palpable.
Ah, Meghan and Matt’s wedding was my first of SIX weddings this past June. Yah. June was an intense month for me. My most favorite part of this day, hands down, was watching how tenderly Matt acted toward his beauty of a bride.
These two photos are from a moment before the ceremony where Meghan and Matt wanted to have an opportunity to pray together without Matt seeing Meghan until the actual ceremony. Hence the blindfold.
You guys, I just really treasure getting to document sweet moments such as these.
Mandie and Eric are SUCH sweethearts and were wed at the quaint little chapel in Arlington with lots of old fixtures and original stained glass windows. So happy for you two!
Brittany wanted her bridals to be an ode both to her home church (as they would be getting married at her now husband’s larger home church) and her wedding reception location. I’m so pleased with the way these turned out.
Now it’s giggly Sarah’s turn! She and Jeremy got married this June at Ashton Gardens.
I looooooooooved how expressive their first look was — in true Sarah form.
This was my third session with the McDorman family! It’s always such a pleasure when clients have me photograph their life in different seasons and I have the honor of watching their family grow.
This wedding was unlike any other wedding I have EVER photographed. Gaba, the groom, is Indian and they wanted to represent that heritage in their wedding day through saris for the bridesmaids, henna for the bride and a pretty intense dance party of a reception. It was all just so fun to get to document!
 There’s just a bit more from June coming and then before we know it July will hit the blog! We’re making strides in getting the blog up to date, people! So exciting!
Ah, May. The month of bridal sessions and the very beginning of the summer wedding season. If you’re a wedding photographer, you love May.
Let’s start this recap post off with the ridiculously gorgeous Cassidy, whose senior photos I took around TWU.
Remember last week’s post of the clothesline maternity session (which, I realize now sounds relatively violent, but I promise it was entirely peaceful)? Well, here’s the part II — a sweet little newborn session.
It kills me to have to reduce such a gorgeous garden wedding down to a measly thirteen photos, but alas, here is just the tiniest peek into Deanna and Scott’s lovely Arboretum wedding followed by a intimate reception at local restaurant.
In May I also took some family photos for my dear friend Kelsey’s family. They’re always such a hoot.
And goodness gracious, everyone take a quick second to gawk with me over how absolutely gorgeous Kaity was for her bridal session at the Fort Worth botanic gardens.
Sweet Mandi’s bridal session took place at the good ‘ol TWU gardens.
How fun is it that Meghan included her now husband’s trumpet in her bridal session. If you missed it earlier, be sure to also check out Meghan and Matt’s teacher love engagement session from December! The trumpet makes an appearance there too!
In true Sarah-fashion, this next bride was all laughs and giggles at her Wildwood Inn bridal session.
Stefanie and Scott’s wedding day took place at Edison’s in Dallas and man-oh-man was that venue packed full with with l-o-v-e.
I’m so excited to share Theresa and Gaba’s wedding day images, but in the meantime posting Theresa’s pretty bridals are going to have to hold me over.
Ah! It’s Trina and Toby’s engagement session. I actually just shot their UH-mazing wedding two weeks ago and you can view their wedding preview on the JZP Facebook page right here.
 That was May’s recap. Check back through the rest of the week to view a few more May wedding blogposts and then before you know it we’ll be up to June!
April was so sweet.
To illustrate my point, here are a few of the lovely Sarah’s bridals.
And then there was my road trip to Lubbock to take my darling friend Sara’s college graduation photos. (p.s. Sara, if you’re reading this, let’s have dinner soon!)
I always love shooting at the Milestone, especially when the bride is as stunning as Kara.
Every time I look at this above image I see Scarlett from “Gone With the Wind.”
And who doesn’t love a precious camping engagement session with a full-grown boy scout and girl scout?
Emily and Sam worked the camera at their Denton engagement session before tying the knot this past July.
Well hey! Speaking of Emily — I also took her bridals in April!
It may have been super-cloudy on the day we took Terri and Tim’s engagement photos but these two are so goofy together the place brightened right up.
Wait for it . . . .waaaaaaait for it: Here are their signature Robert Di Niro impressions.
This photo session was part destination graduation and part sibling photos as a surprise for Anne’s parents.
I just saw these two get married on Saturday! Their preview will be up before the end of the week, but while you’re waiting why don’t you check out a few of Laura and Tristan’s engagement photos?
I think the world of Keri and Nick. Plus the light at their engagement session was to die for so, you know, double win.
And gosh, speaking of April being a sweet month, it’s so fitting to end with a few of Kari and Jim’s engagement photos.
 And there you have it — an incredibly fast-forwarded summary of my April 2012. Check back soon for a couple post showcasing my April 2012 weddings too!
