When Abby and Adam told me that their wedding would be a small, intimate gathering out in the country with only 30 attendees total, I wasn’t sure what to expect… I am used to huge, extravagant affairs with hundreds of attendees in the heart of major metropolitan areas. I was excited and unsure at the same time. Most of all, I was worried about blending in with such a small number of guests. Luckily, I had no reason to be worried, as Abby & Adam’s guests turned out to be just as friendly and welcoming as they are!
Here are some of my favorite images from the day…
Abby told me that she loved our ring shots, so I made sure to get some really cool ones for her. These are just a few of the ones I took, but I love how all of these have the same color palette, and match Abby & Adam’s color scheme for their wedding!
Abby getting primped and ready for the big day!
The beautiful bouquet!
A few fun shots of the boys hanging out
A few details of the ceremony area.. Despite a rain scare, the weather was fairly cooperative!
And one detail that I just DIED over.. They had the trash cans dressed up in tuxes, with a real boutonniere!
Then it was finally time to get these two lovebirds hitched! I love Adam’s smile as he sees Abby walking down the aisle towards him
Fun with textures!
The groomsmen mysteriously “misplaced” the ring 
But they did manage to find a rubber chicken!
After the ceremony, it was time for some of our trademark fun formals! How’s this for fun?
A little more artsy..
Because Abby & Adam agreed to see each other before the ceremony, we had twice as much time to photograph them as we would a normal couple. It was great for us to be able to really focus on creating some beautiful portraits of the two of them.
Then it was reception time!
Abby & Adam opted out of the traditional reception events like the first dance, bouquet toss, and toasts, so we don’t have the normal images to show you.. Instead, we’ll just show you some of the many GORGEOUS details from their decor.
And finally, after a great Asian-inspired meal of teriyaki chicken, steamed rice, veggies, and of course, sushi, everyone sent them off with a flurry of lights and cheers.
Abby & Adam, thank you so much for inviting us to share in your wedding. We were honored to be among the small group of attendees, and we hope you had at much fun at your wedding as we did! Congratulations on your new life together 
Hey guys!!
I have scheduled a few trips for the next couple of months, and I wanted to open them up to anyone in those areas who might be in need of some photography services!
Houston, TX – April 25-28
This weekend is already pretty packed, with two engagement sessions, two bridal sessions, and (hopefully) a Fearless Bridal. However, if anyone in Houston needs to meet with me or schedule a shoot with me, let me know now so I can fit you into the schedule!
Vail, CO – May 2-5
I will be visiting my former roommate and AMAZING woman Juls, and I would love to do an epic bridal session up in the mountains. If anyone lives near Vail, has a wedding gown, and is free that weekend, shoot me an email with your name, e-mail address, and a photo of yourself and your dress. I’ll give you a free session and a large print as a thank you for helping me out! Or, if you are a Colorado photographer and want to help out, let me know as well Fair warning, I may send you out to scout locations for me!
NYC – May 28-June 2
I will be shooting a destination engagement session up in NYC, and I reeeeeeally want to shoot a Fearless Bridal session while I am up there. If anyone is up for the task, let me know
This year is going to be amazing, I can’t wait to show you all the cool photos!
While Jason and I were in Georgetown for Abby & Adam’s wedding, we also stopped into nearby Round Rock, TX to see Jason’s sister Megan! Although I have met the rest of Jason’s family, I had not yet met Megan, even though Jason talks about her ALL the time, so I was very excited to meet this girl I had heard so much about! Like a true Gulledge, Megan was everything I expected her to be.. kind, funny, sassy, and extremely attractive! I just couldn’t resist dragging her and her fiancee Josh around Round Rock for a quick engagement session. Here are a few of my faves!
Although Megan and Josh wanted to head to beautiful Lake Travis for photos, time constraints kept us in town. Luckily we were able to find this cool, historic downtown shopping area that worked out even better!
I just love parking lots! Surprisingly enough they make great backgrounds
Aren’t they so cute together?
This one is probably my favorite shot of the day.. These two are sexy!!!
You know how I am with benches..
As we were driving to the downtown area, I saw this cool bright blue building that I HAD to shoot at! I LOVE colorful walls!
More fun in parking lots….
This shot was totally Megan’s idea.. I love it!!
Megan and Josh really wanted some photos with a lot of trees and flowers in them, so when we drove past this historic old home surrounded by gorgeous plantlife, we had to stop and beg the owners to let us pose for a few minutes!
A super hot photo out by the pond
And finally, I love repeating backgrounds! And couples in love, of course 
Thank you so much Megan and Josh for the hospitality, entertainment, great food, and opening your home to us! Come visit anytime – and don’t forget to bring Roxy!!

Mom, if you are reading this.. Just stop now.. Trust me on this one.
So, last week, Jason officially left me for a younger, prettier woman, who I’ll call…. Lucille. Lucille is everything I could never be.. Smooth, edgy, fast.. I just can’t compete with that! It was devastating to me, naturally, but lucky Lucille agreed to let me keep Jason when she is too tired to entertain him. Even I have to admit that Lucille is so cool and beautiful, so I asked if I could go out and do a photo session with her. Here is a picture of the hussy that stole my boyfriend:
TROLLOP!!!
Okay fine, so it’s not technically a woman, per se, but she totally did steal my boyfriend.
Jason has been talking about wanting a bike since I have known him, and now that he finally has a house with a garage, he decided to pull the trigger and buy himself a Harley Sportster 1200N (aka “nightster”). Although I must admit it is kind of cool, the stress of worrying about him while he is riding is taking years off my life. Sigh.. I am trying to be the understanding, supportive girlfriend who only wants what makes her darling happy.
When he bought the bike, he got to ring this big bell so everyone in the store would know that the HOG (Harley Owners Group) had a new family member.
Here is is showing off his new ladyfriend and his new gear.
And a few of the details..
If any of you have boys with bikes, please reassure me that the terror goes away after awhile 
Last Friday I got a chance to attend the single greatest concert of my life thus far.. The Hotel Cafe Tour! Featuring…
Cary Brothers, Ingrid Michaelson, Greg Laswell, Sara Bareilles, and Joshua Radin!! Five of the most amazing, talented artists in the music industry. I would have been perfectly happy to see any ONE of these guys perform, but to be able to experience them all in one night was more than I could have hoped for. Although I didn’t get to hear my favorite song of any of these artists – Radin’s Sundrenched World – I did get to hear a ton of my other favorites, including Love Song, Bottle It Up, Fairytale, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, Way I Am, Breakable, Gravity (which I bawled like a baby all the way through) and so many others.
The highlight of the night was Ingrid Michaelson’s encore, where she played random TV theme show songs as suggested by the audience, including Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Happy Days, Golden Girls, and the Facts of Life.
I’ll leave you with a clip of the last song of the night.. It was a really special moment, with everyone singing along and Ingrid harmonizing with the audience. If the concert comes to a city near you, be sure to grab some tickets, if you still can – you won’t regret it!
Thanks also to the glorious and talented Jason Huang for having dinner with me beforehand! He will also be helping me out with Drew & Sarah’s wedding in a couple of weeks, so be sure to stay tuned for the photos!
