Our trip to Sweden!

2008-08-13T20:47:00.010-05:00

Hello!
The blog has been sort of slow lately and that's because Sean and I took a couple of weeks off to visit my family in Sweden. It was an amazing trip! We had a great time, ate a bunch of tasty food and saw lots of new things.
I wanted to share a few photos with you. The photos below are taken by me, Sean (my husband) and my two brothers. Dad chipped in every once in a while too!
I'm back to work! Give me a call if you need me!

The Atlantic! We went swimming and it was surprisingly warm.

Here is proof that I did not sleep away the vacation! This is 5 am fog!!

We went shopping one day and the market was right next to this really old castle/military base. Nowadays it's just a building holding offices. What I wouldn't give to do a bridal session here!!

A self portrait!

A little hike took us to this great spot just a few minutes away from where my parents live.

Now for a few family pics!

My brother is cultivating a bonzai! It's so cool and he watches every branch and leaf on it!

Favorite one of my mom and I!

My brother! I wish I could take photos of him more often.

My mom and little brother.

Wasn't sure who should get the photo credit on this one! haha!

My Dad and I talking about how to take a particular photo!

Oh my gosh! My brother and Sean having fun!

These red houses are very old and traditional- a trade mark for the northern part of the country- a region called Dalarna.

A midsummer tree!
This is what the Swedes dance around when midsummer is celebrated- specially the northern part of the country. They are left standing most of the year, but covered in new greens for the celebration.

Traditional Swedish fence! This type of fence is found mostly in Dalarna.

The favorite photo of me and my parents- ever!

This is one of the largest lakes in Sweden- Siljan. We took a lift to the top for this view. I don't think it could have been any more beautiful. The landscape is literally covered with lakes that are this blue and clear. We went swimming in a bunch of them!

Sean is not afraid of getting dirty for the right shot!!

Even Dad is good with the camera!
Here is my little brother and I- he's so much taller than me!

My brother, Milad, is a great photographer!
He got his first SLR back in February and he's so good with it already! Thanks for all the great photos bro!

After spending a few days in Sweden with the family, we flew to London to take in the city of 14 million! My brother lives and goes to school there so we got to stay at his place and have a personal tour guide too! What an incredible place! There was so much to do and to see- we walked 10 hours a day and still came up short on time. Here are a few pics!

It was noon somewhere...but not in London!
I'd say we started our stay in London on the right note!

A great shot taken by Sean! You see the Tower of London and the "Gherkin"- but most important you see one of the famous pigeons of London. Pose pigeon, Pose!

One of the cool things about being in London was to see my old friends whom I had not seen for almost 8 years!

Right across the street from Westminster Abbey is the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben!

Sean gets in on a good angle!

My little brother took a few pics of us while we were taking a break at Westminster Abbey.

My brother and his girlfriend, Petra.
The neighborhood he lives in is so old and very beautiful.

A couple of the many really old and very cool buildings around the south bank.

Borough Market! Here we ate a great lunch and listened to a jazz band playing outside.
Here is a bit of info about this really cool place.
"Borough Market is London’s oldest food market. It was established on the south bank of the Thames when the Romans built the first London Bridge. It has occupied its present site for 250 years."

One of the many bridges crossing the river Thames.

The Tower bridge- often mistaken for London Bridge!
The tower bridge is a common commute route for pedestrians.

The last thing we did in London was to take a ride on the "London Eye". It was so worth it!

Jessica + Billy

2008-07-06T13:54:00.009-05:00

Jessica and Billy got married at Kali Kate in Buda. Jessica had done an fabulous job at picking the colors for her wedding. The girls looked amazing in their fuchsia tea-length dresses and the guys looked very handsome in their summer suits, perfectly coordinated with fuchsia paisley ties.

These two are honestly one of the most beautiful and lovely couples I have ever met. They have so much love for each other, their friends and families. The whole wedding was so laid back and fun- from the very emotional ceremony to the party of all parties!
I am so happy and honored they picked me to shoot their wedding.
Thank you everyone for the very good times!

What a beauty!

Billy hangs out with his buddies just before the ceremony. It was raining a bit and everyone was waiting for it to stop. It happened just perfectly! The rain stopped and then we got beautiful skies!

Are you kidding me?! How beautiful is this moment?

It was starting to get dark but we got some really good colors with the dusk light.

Jessica looked amazing on her wedding day just as she did when we did her bridal session.

Grandma does the Macarena! That was awesome!

Jessica and Billy get their dance on!!

Change of outfits and it's time to go!

Jenn + Dan

2008-06-30T16:28:00.008-05:00

Jenn and Dan's wedding was at the beautiful Barr Mansion. There was a chance of rain so the ceremony was moved inside, but I really don't think that made it any less beautiful. Jenn and Dan have such fun family and friends- and they were all there for one purpose, to celeberate! I have had such a good time photographing this awesome couple for their engagements, wedding and a Trash the Dress session. Thank you guys for making me part of your celebration and for allowing me to get to know you. You rock!

Hiding the bride behind a huge umbrella!

Wow- the staff at the Barr Mansion did an amazing job. The ceremony decorations looked great!

Everyone!

Jenn gets the party started! I love Dan's expression in this shot!

Dan preps the cake cutting sword!

Sarah's Bridals

2008-06-23T21:47:00.005-05:00

Sarah! I love Sarah! She is the sweetest bride and I have now had two great shoots with her. A few weeks ago we did engagements with Sarah and her hubby-to-be, James. We had such a fun time so I was excited to shoot the bridals- and now I just can't wait until their wedding day!
Sarah, being a TX girl, wanted a few known landmarks worked into her bridals so we started at the Bob Bullock Museum.
By the way- Sarah's inner model totally rocks! Here are a few of my favs!
Thanks girl for a really fun shoot!
oh and here are a few James- my second shooter- took from the session.

Need I say more?!!

What a gorgeous dress! What a perfect silhouette!

Sarah wanted to get a few shot with the Capitol in the background. We just happened to see this great spot. We had to dodge a few cars and people probably thought we were nuts making a bride stand in the middle of the street! But, hey- we got the shot!!

Tanya +Dave

2008-06-22T15:52:00.004-05:00

Tanya and Dave got married in a beautiful sunset ceremony at Kali-Kate, Buda. I met Tanya and her mom a few months ago and they were so sweet. I really was hoping that I would get a chance to shoot the wedding, so I was trilled when Tanya emailed me and told me that they had decided to go with me.
I had never shot at Kali-Kate before so I drove out there to check things out. It was so beautiful and that just got me even more excited about the wedding.
We had a wonderful and cool day- that was just before it got blazing hot-filled with laughter, love and good times!
Thank you Dave, Tanya, the families and friends for the amazing time.

Tanya's brother, David, is a Marine and is on his 2nd tour of duty in Iraq. He was really missed at the wedding but the family came up with a fun way to include him in the celebration. Here is Tanya holding a up a photo of him so he can be in the "just siblings" photos. They even gave him a bow-tie to make sure he was dressed appropriately! haha! How sweet!

My favorite kind of "family portraits"! It's the best when people start having fun.

Hello!!!

Wow! These people know how to party!! Everyone was on the dance floor!

Leslie + Chris

2008-06-18T15:00:00.007-05:00

I got to spend some time with Leslie and Chris as they celebrated their wedding day. It was a big happy celebration!
The wedding was at St. Thomas More church, followed by a kicking party at the Oasis!
These guys can have some serious fun! They had a great group of family and friends helping them keep the volume of the party nice and high!
We had a beautiful sunset and I'd say it was a good day!
Thank you Leslie and Chris for making James and I a part of your big celebration.
Hope you're having a good honeymoon! : )

Folks- when I say I love shooting weddings, I really mean it!
Especially when you get to spend your day photographing beautiful and fun people like these guys! You see what I mean?!

Cool ride!

You cannot be at the Oasis and not take a few of these- right?!

Jenn + Dan "trash the dress" 2

2008-06-11T21:09:00.006-05:00

Ok- so I promised I would post a few more shots from our "Trash The Dress" or as I like to call it "Extreme" session!
I'm still buzzing with excitement from the shoot!

Thanks again Jenn and Dan for the good time! Loved it!

Hello! How cute are these guys?!
Thanks Dan for wearing such a good color tie!

Talk about a neat spot! I could not have wished for better colors!

Yes- Jenn's eyes really are this beautiful! This isn't a photoshop job!

Jenn + Dan "trash the dress"

2008-06-09T13:06:00.007-05:00

Ok- I just could not resist!
Jenn and Dan got married a few weeks ago and the daring bride decided to take me on for a Trash The Dress session. You guys- I can't tell you how much fun this was! Jenn and Dan were totally awesome and we got some unforgettable shots.
I will post more in a few days but I just had to post this one now!
Have I said that I had an amazing time already?!
Thanks guys for taking the leap and trashing the dress! You rock!

Bethany + Korey

2008-05-29T14:43:00.005-05:00

Bethany and Korey made me laugh the entire time we were shooting! Seriously it was hard to take the photos! Let's just say that I can't wait to shoot their wedding photos. : )

If you didn't know this- here it goes. When you take photos in front of the "Greetings from Austin" mural, there are a few photos you have to get or else they won't let you shoot there.

Here they are:

"The Jump"

"The Shoes"

And "The funny face"!

Bethany and Korey's rings were made by ancient Romans!
I am not even kidding! How cool is that- and where do I get one?!!

Kathryn + Sterling

2008-05-20T21:51:00.006-05:00

This wedding was at one my favorite venues ever- Mercury Hall.

So that was a good start!
Now let's add on to this, beautiful weather and one of the most awesome, laid back, funny couples I have had the pleasure to photograph.
On top of that, Kathryn and Sterling are as cute as can be!
We had such a good time at this wedding and was totally surprised and sad when I realized that it was time to go home.
Thank you so much for having me there and for being you! : )

Bubble time!

Melissa + Weston

2008-05-16T00:23:00.004-05:00

Melissa and Weston drove all the way from San Antonio for a photo session. Thanks guys!
We had a fun time at the shoot. This adorable duo was so easy to work with because they were so fun and looked so good no matter what we did or where we were! I just can't wait to shoot their wedding in October. : )

Cool wall!

Weston is a musician and he had his guitar along on the shoot. How cute are they?!

Then the mosquitoes showed up! We only had time for a few photos before we had to flee!

Lynsey + Justin

2008-05-07T21:12:00.006-05:00

Got to drive to San Antonio to shoot a great wedding! Lynsey and Justin are a totally cute couple. Lynsey is so sweet- so taking photos of her is easy!
She just looks good!
I was taking photos of Justin while standing on a chair, and I am not sure what he thought of that! haha! Thanks Justin for being game and way cool!
Here is a small peek at the wedding!
Thanks guys for having me be a part of your big day- Sherry : )

Sarah + James

2008-05-05T16:48:00.002-05:00

An afternoon in the hill-country, spend with an awesome couple! Sarah and James are getting married later this year and I can't wait for the big day. Other than being totally sweet and fun to be around, Sarah and James are way cute!
Thanks guys for being up for hiking, climbing, and sitting on dirt!!

Time to switch hats! Sarah looked so cute in James' hat!

Then we drove to Hamilton Pool! I love this place!

Jessica

2008-05-03T22:32:00.004-05:00

Jessica rocks!!
We had a awesome bridal session at Mayfield park and it was so fun!
This girl was up for anything and I love the photos. Thanks Jess for being such a cool bride! : )

Jessica found a cute umbrella the day before the shoot- totally perfect!

Then shoes came off!

Austin Monthly Fashion Show

2008-04-30T18:51:00.002-05:00

So , I promised I would post a few pics from the show at the Belmont.
This was a happening place to be!
Here are a few shot of the lovely models strutting their stuff!
Awesome! It was a blast to be on the front lines!

Here are the two ladies behind the very successful show. Way to go Cameron and Jessica!

Working on a new site!

2008-04-25T22:15:00.002-05:00

Hi everyone!
I have been sort of out pocket and have not been blogging at all. It's been a couple of weeks of many shoots and lots of fun work. I am so excited- I am working on a new website! It will have a lot of more of my latest work on there for you to see. All you lovely brides who are waiting for your photos will be able to go on to my site directly and view your photos. Way cooler and easier! yeay!

Oh- and I shot the Austin Monthly Fashion show at the Belmont the other night. It was so fun! Photos coming soon.
See ya,
Sherry

Spotlight photographer of the week!

2008-04-16T10:41:00.001-05:00

I am so honored and excited!
I was asked to be the spotlight photographer of the week by the wonderful folks of C2K Neighborhood. C2k is a great photography forum that I recently joined. There are so many talented photographers from all around the country on the forum and I learn from them everyday.
I just had to share my excitement!
Here is a photo my husband, Sean, took of me a while ago that made it onto C2K. I have to give him props! He did such a good job!

Amy + Todd

2008-04-11T20:22:00.002-05:00

Amy and Todd got married at the awesome Starhill Ranch. I've known Amy for a long time and was so excited when she asked me to shoot her wedding. The wedding was so much fun and I had a blast taking the photos. Thanks so much guys for letting me share your day with you. xoxo Sherry

How cute! They got to ring the bell after the ceremony.

Starhill has the coolest spots for photos. Love it!

The last dance!

Wild flowers

2008-04-02T23:12:00.005-05:00

So today I drove out to visit a venue where I will be shooting a wedding later this month and I had my first wild flower sighting! (I know, we all have seen them along IH-35, but really- does that count?!)
I pulled over and started hiking the field in my "city shoes"!
I manage to disturb a few ants, and they warned me off by nibbling on my foot!
This was fun! Here are a few shots!

The "must have" Bluebonnet shot!

Cameron

2008-03-30T14:39:00.005-05:00

We had an awesome photo session at Mayfield Park the other day. Cameron wanted a few good shot to give to her family for her college graduation.
Here is a question: What do you get when you mix a cool location+ great light+ a beautiful girl? Well, see for yourself!
Thanks Cameron for looking directly in the sun, sitting on the grass, climbing on walls and overall being totally awesome to work with!

Love the colors! Thanks Cameron for picking such a cool shirt.

We had the best light to work with! James did a fab job with the reflector!

Hello!

As usual, it seems like I have ended up with another fun image of me taking a photo! My family is a big fan of these shots! Thanks James for snapping this one!

Amber and Brad - Feb. 16

2008-03-12T00:25:00.005-05:00

Amber and Brad got married at the beautiful Vintage Villas. The day was a cold one! I think we had a high of like 38 degrees! But that really did not change the fun -and no pun intended- the warmth of the wedding. The Bride- with goosebumps- let us convince her to step outside a few minutes for the photos. Thank you Amber!
The fun times on the dance floor was of legendary proportions! Here I thought Brad's family was going to be the crazy ones, but I soon realized that Amber's family were equally as fun!
Thanks everyone! We had such a good time!

The girls!The boys!

Now that's one nice groom's man!

The ceremony was moved indoor because of the crazy TX weather! But it really did not make a big difference. The ceremony was very sweet and the room totally beautiful.

Amber and Brad braved the weather for some photos after the ceremony as well!

The toast!

The first dance!

The cigar break!

Desiree

2008-03-03T10:28:00.004-06:00

Two of my favorite people got married Saturday! Congrats Desiree & Orlando!
Now that they are married , I can post some of the bridal photos.
I just had a feeling that Orlando might find his way over here if I posted these sooner and then yours truly would have been swimming with the fishes!

Desiree's maid of honor, Grayson, works at the beautiful Laguna Gloria. She helped us set up this shoot and we were so excited! Here are some of the photos.

We're done!!

Abbey and Travis

2008-02-28T12:56:00.011-06:00

I totally love this couple! I drove to Dallas for this shoot and was super excited about shooting in a new place- I was not disappointed!
Abbey and Travis are such a sweet couple! They were totally lovable and into having some fun for the photos.
I didn't have to tell them to do anything- this is just their own cuteness!
I can't wait for their wedding in October!
You guys rock! Thanks for the inspiring day in Dallas.

This little park looked like an art installation to me. I love the way the trees look!

Travis wanted to pretend they were hanging on while the trolley was moving!
I couldn't help myself with the motion blur!

Then we had a change of outfits!
Good thing Travis' car had super dark tinted windows!!

Never knew Dallas was so beautiful! What a surprise!

Abbey and Travis were so cool! A couple of days before our shoot, they went on a location scouting trip in Dallas!

They found this really amazing wall covered in graffiti.
This shoot was just getting started!

William

2008-01-18T12:36:00.000-06:00

Aren't those the cutest feet you've ever seen?!
I got to take some baby photos of little William the other day.
He is so sweet! I even got to take a few photos of mom and dad!
Thanks guys for the fun time!

Ja-Young and David

2008-01-05T08:57:00.000-06:00

Ja-Young and David are such a fun couple and they got to celebrate their wedding twice! Their first ceremony was a fun, colorful and sweet Korean ceremony. It was so cool to learn about their culture and traditions, and the couple looked so cute! I was so excited!
Thanks so much for letting me part of your big day. : )

David sees Ja-Young!

The seeds symbolize prosperity and fruitfulness. They are given to the couple by the parents.

The next day the bride and groom got all dolled up again for an even bigger celebration.

Waiting to go outside for some pics!

Wohoo! They're married!

The reception was at the Omni hotel. The room was filled with fun little details. Isn't the cake topper so cute?!

A little dancing never hurt anyone, right?!

It was fun to ride in the carriage. A sudden take-0ff made me almost fall on Ja-Young! OMG!

Orlando and Desi

2007-12-26T12:12:00.000-06:00

My good friends, Desi and Orlando, are getting married! So exciting!
I get to go to their wedding as a guest- which is such a special treat for me! But, I had to take some photos of them! So we spend a couple hours and took some fun photos of the cute couple. Thanks guys! You are such a blast!

Cool new park near downtown! Look at the view!

As we were finishing up, we came across this fountain. Desi and Orlando were totally into rolling up their pants and didn't mind getting a little wet!

Samantha and Billy- Mercury Hall

2007-12-10T16:42:00.000-06:00

I met Samantha and Billy just days before their wedding. They were so cool that I felt an instant connection and was super excited about their wedding.
The wedding was at Mercury Hall where the bride and groom were surrounded by a good number of totally loving and sweet group of people.
I am so glad to have had a chance to shoot this one!
Everything from the colors, the beautiful flowers, the loving couple and the fun at the reception afterwards- it all added up to a fun and fabulous wedding!
Thanks Sam and Billy!
love ya!

Oh my gosh- I love the ring-bearer's expression!
He was so cute and fun at the reception too! Check out the photo of him dancing a little further down on this post.

Wohoo- they're married!
My friend Kim Gotchall is a wonderful officiant! She also has a super cute store.
www.unbridaled.com

A good friend sang a beautiful song for the first dance.

The girls were having a blast!

Here is the photo of the ring-bearer dancing!

It was getting late! Samantha & Billy helped me get my second wind by being goofy!

A little "Thriller" action!

Midnight Frequency

2007-11-21T12:42:00.001-06:00

My friend Rachelle is the drummer for "Midnight Frequency". I have been dying to shoot a band so when they told me that they needed some publicity photos I was so excited! whoohoo!
We walked around for a couple of hours in different parts of town. We even got to use these cool yellow vintage chairs as props. They were from a cute little store nearby!
"Midnight Frequency" had their first performance the other night and they sound so good!
Thanks Rachelle, Heather and Bethany for letting me have fun shooting your photos!
Check out their website! www.myspace.com/midnightfrequency
Cheers!

Ok- Isn't that the cutest octopus you've ever seen? The mouth was our favorite part!

A little dancing - they're going to kill me for putting this one on here!

Holly strikes again!!!

2007-11-12T12:46:00.001-06:00

My second shooter, Holly, was at it again! She takes these photos, but won't tell me she did it. Then as I am reviewing the images, I come across things like this. : )
You rock Holly! Thanks!

Here is the photo I was taking!

Angel and Keith

2007-11-12T11:37:00.000-06:00

Angel and Keith are a totally cute couple! We had wonderful weather and really cool venue for the photos. The ceremony was really sweet and the reception so fun! Once the dinning was all said and done- the dance floor filled up and stayed that way!
Such fun people! Thanks guys for letting me be a part of your day. : )

Seeing each other for the first time

I love it when photos just happen! This was not posed! I swear!!

Lots of dancing! I love it when people have fun! Makes for fun photos!

Cake in the face!

Wedding in Thorndale, TX

2007-11-05T20:27:00.000-06:00

It’s time to post some photos from our Thorndale wedding!
Ok- so Jenny and Easton have the most fun family ever! The whole group was so nice and I tell you- they could dance!
I have never been to a wedding where everyone- and I mean everyone was a good dancer.
Can you imagine how much fun we had shooting the wedding?
Thanks guys for the wonderful time we had shooting your wedding,
Sherry

Burgers in Thorndale

2007-09-13T20:32:00.000-05:00

My assistant-Mary Jane and I took a day trip to Thorndale, TX for a wedding this summer. We had a few minutes to eat before the wedding and just when we thought that we would never find a place to have lunch, we came across this corner-store/dinner.
Those were some tasty burgers!

Ann Taylor

2007-08-05T23:51:00.002-05:00

This was such an awesome shoot!
I got to photograph 3 of the ladies from the Great Hills trail- Ann Taylor store in their new bridesmaid collection.
Seriously, go to Ann Taylor and try some of those dresses on! Even if you don't need any bridesmaid dresses, they make great party dresses! Ask for Emily! She a manager there and she is awesome!

As said, the dresses were so fabulous and the girls way cool!
Shooting weddings, I do my best to make people not look “posed”, but this was the exact opposite!

The girls said that they never done any modeling before but I don’t believe it!
Thanks for being such troopers and being so easy to work with- I look forward to working with you soon again.

Kathy and Derek

2007-08-05T23:19:00.001-05:00

Kathy and Derek’s wedding was at Mercury Hall.

They had a morning wedding so we had nice weather and brunch! The eggs Benedict and coffee was so tasty!
The reception was a lot of fun! What a great band and Kathy’s dad can sing!
He sang a really cool tone and everyone got a kick out of it!

Ok…so the most original getaway I’ve seen so far! A tandem bike complete with a basket of sunflowers!
That was cute! My assistant had to leave early to pick up her kids and the moment the wedding was over, I called her and told her that she had missed out on my favorite getaway!
Kathy and Derek- you guys rock!!

Lauren and Kevin

2007-08-05T22:52:00.000-05:00

Lauren and Kevin got married at the beautiful St. Louis Catholic Church and had their reception at one of my favorite places- The Barr Mansion.

Lauren was a totally stunning bride and her groom knew it! They were so cute together and had so much fun at the wedding.
I had a blast shooting their wedding and the photos are some of my favorite ones I’ve taken at the Barr this year.
Thanks Lauren and Kevin for being so easy to work with.

Jenny's Bridals

2007-07-31T00:47:00.000-05:00

Ok...so we got kind of lucky on this one!
Jenny, her mom and I arrived at Zilker Botanical Gardens, only to find out that we were some of the last people who got to have a free photo-shoot there. yes...they are now charging a fee!

But, we for sure took advantage of the day and despite the heat and very bright sun, got to take some fun photos.
Jenny is so good! She is naturally comfortable in-front of the camera and that makes my job so easy!

Maggie and Dan

2007-07-04T12:19:00.001-05:00

Wow! Talk about a fun wedding! Maggie and Dan were so great to work with. We spend a cold winter day taking their engagement photos but the cold weather didn’t bring them down! We walked up and down Congress and found lots of fun places to takes the photos.
On to the wedding…I already knew it was going to be a good one! It turns out that it’s not just Dan and Maggie that are way cool, but their friends and family were a blast too!
I love being on the dance floor with a bunch of dancing, crazy people and I for sure got a chance to do that!
Congrats Dan and Maggie and thanks for being so fun to work with!

Can you hold this for a minute?!

2007-07-04T01:09:00.001-05:00

My second shooter, Holly, took this photo of me a few days ago!
I had no idea she even took it! That's so fun!
Thanks Holly! You rock!

Melissa and Joe

2007-07-03T23:53:00.000-05:00

Melissa and Joe are such an awesome couple! Their wedding was held at one of my favorite places- Mayfield Park! The park comes complete with ponds, flowers and even peacocks!
The wedding was very intimate and uplifting and the weather had cleared up after some days of rain so everyone was happy!
Melissa and Joe were so easy to work with and we even had some time to go around town after the wedding and take some photos. That was fun! They had a very nice friend who acted as our driver.
It's always way cool to walk around town with a bride and groom- it sure draws some attention!
Thanks guys for letting me be a part of your day.

Liz and Andy

I got to meet Liz and Andy at one of their friend’s wedding. They had just had a pretty little baby and I could not help but to shoot several photos of her. I had a chance to get to know them better a few months later when I shot their family portraits. We had a good time that day at Zilker Botanicals. The weather was amazing and we got to spend some time and explore the gardens. We got some fun photos. It was a blast to photograph little Madeline!
She had grown up a little and flashed her pretty bright smile at me every time I pointed my lens at her.

The Wedding
The wedding was at the Texas Federation for Women. I had never shoot there before so I was excited! What a Beautiful place! Add happy and beautiful people and you can’t go wrong! Everything was perfect! You could tell that Liz and Andy had worked very hard to make everything just right. I am so glad to have been a part of their day. Thanks guys for being so awesome to work with.

My First Entry

It's been an amazing spring and summer. I have shot more photos these past few months than I can remember! Digital photography is pretty cool like that! There is no holding back. I remember shooting film a few years back at weddings and always being aware of every single setting for every click of the camera. Now, with digital photography, I pay more attention to what I am shooting and worry less about if things are turning out as well as I want them to. This has truly made me a better photographer. I have met some amazing people and felt such connections to so many. Being there step-by-step, on an important day such as someone's wedding day, really make you feel close to a couple. Then a few days later when I look over the photos, I find myself getting as excited as I was when I was taking the photos- and I hope that when the couple see the photos, they will be as excited.
I am in post-production for so many weddings right now and feel the need to share these photos. Please Stay tuned and check back! I would love to show you a few recent photos.
Happy Friday,
Sherry
