Right before the Thanksgiving holiday I headed out to Dallas to meet Ashley & Jim. These two met and started dating in 2015 through an online site and will be getting married next year. I love how Jim proposed – such an amazing proposal story. Ashley tells it best though:

“He did a fabulous job!! We were staying at the most amazing hotel in Amalfi, Italy and Jim had the whole staff in on the plan. Our friends, Courtney and Todd, were traveling with us so Jim had them come over from their hotel in Positiano and we did a spa/pool day at the hotel. He told me we were taking them down to the town of Amalfi that night for dinner but that was never really the plan. Jim leaves to “go check on the shuttle” and leaves me a card in the door hinge. Todd says, “Hey Ash, what’s in the door.” I walk over to it thinking it is a bill or memo from the hotel but it turns out to be a card leading me on a scavenger hunt to several different spots on the property. Todd has disappeared at this point and I later learn that he has been photographing the whole event. When I arrive at the outdoor garden, Jim is there with our favorite song playing and he gets down on one knee. Of course, I cried and said YES!!”

Their wedding at Room on Main and Highland Park United Methodist is going to be so much fun and I can’t wait to work along side Hitched Events & Marc Roberts Video!

Alesia and Gee are just too adorable. I love their fun personalities, how completely in love they are and well, everything! From the moment they walked into my studio for our first meeting I was just taken with how much Gee loves Alesia. She wants to make sure that Alesia has everything that matters to her, all her wedding dreams and more. It was just refreshing to see a couple that really is serving one another, putting the other before themselves. For their session we had to do the Winspear Opera house, they loved the reflecting pool there and so do I, it was awesome! Alesia was totally channeling Audrey Hepburn in her classic black dress and pixie haircut and Gee rocked her fuchsia top and suiting. After the arts district we headed to Klyde Warren Park for something a little more relaxed and so that Max, their puppy, could join the fun. Klyde Warren is a total oasis in the middle of the city and such a fun spot to do photos. The light was awesome, their love was awesome, it was amazing! Can’t wait to see these two say I Do in April next year at The Milestone.
