Lauren was a totally DIVA at her bridal session.  I really really love her dress.  The funny thing is she didn’t even want to try it on but the lady at the shop talked her into it.  Mad props to Lasting Bridal Couture in Addison, TX for picking out this killer gown.  Also how about three cheers for Fox 111 Salon in Henderson for doing her hair & makeup.  We romped all over The Belgium House in Longview for her session.  OK, enough chit chat, here are the images.

We had a blast shooting Amanda’s session. We started out at The Belgium House, they are getting married there in a few months, and then we headed into downtown Longview.

I think my favorite part was getting out of the car at our first stop. I was getting my gear out and I overheard Amanda telling her mom. “It’s OK mom, just trust him, they will be great.” :)

By the end of the session I think I had won her over because her mom was pointing out dirty grungy trucks for us to use in the shots.  

Alex really really likes the next two shots. :)

Amanda’s color for her wedding is hot pink. :) She had a few pink accessories that she was planning on using, but while we where at the laundry place a cab pulled up.
A cab sent from heaven above. (I’m thinking they should book it as their get away car.)  

Another shot I have a crush on, and it was not even a location I picked out. :)

I knew this session would be pretty relaxed. I had no idea it was be as much fun as it turned out.
On the way there it looked like it might rain but I knew it would be OK because The Belgium House has some very cool indoor spots, but I was hoping it would not upset Britni. Once I got there I realized that Britni already had a rain plan. Pink rain boots and an umbrella. :)
So then I started wishing for rain, but alas it never came. Oh well.

Britni went the “non-traditional” rout for her bridal session. Of course we got some great “normal” shots for parents and grandparents to love and frame little 5x7s, but in the end she decided she wanted more of the images to be catered towards Chance and went out of her way to make them fun for him as well. (You’ll see what I mean.)

  Props! Boots and umbrella in case of rain. Flowers because, well, she’s a bride. A gun because Chance likes to hunt.
And get this… she STOLE his Texas hat, guitar and fake ducks to use them in the shoot as well! How great is that?

  Britni can’t play at all, but she is really good at faking it and smiling.

  The gun was not loaded, but still I was glad Britni liked her engagement session photos. :)

  How cool is that crazy tree?

  Her mom and Krista came along for the fun.
