Chelsea & Jacob – Wedding Ceremony at Robert Carr ChapelFort Worth, Texas

May 15, 2019 Ceremony

I am so excited to finally share Chelsea & Jacob’s wedding. This one has been years in the making and it was so perfect! From the moment we started photography at Fort Worth Club until the confetti farewell it was a fun and exciting day. Chelsea was gorgeous in her classic lined gown from Stardust Celebrations – this dress was made for her! It was like every seam perfectly accentuated her body and the back of it was stunning! Jacob and the guys cut up outside before the ceremony and were so easy going. After the wedding we had gorgeous light for some romantic portraits inside and outside of the Robert Carr Chapel.

Taylor & Tyler – Wedding Ceremony at Robert Carr ChapelTCU Fort Worth, Texas

September 10, 2017 Ceremony

I am so full of happiness for Taylor & Tyler. They are super cute together and I can tell that they really and completely “get” each other. From the moment I met them I knew – they are kind, genuine, loving to all and really have compassion for those around them. They are good people and together they are great!

As they prepared for their wedding I loved the excitement in the room. Although nothing matched Taylor’s excitement as she opened her pre-wedding gift. A stuffed puppy! This little lovey isn’t just to hold but as a sign to come – the golden doodle Tyler found her as a wedding present. Her favorite dog – her obsession. Tyler knows her well! I also loved our first look with Dad – Dad’s always make me cry when they see their little girls all dressed in white!

At the chapel as these two said their vows and exchanged rings there were lots of smiles and sweet moments. These two wrote their own vows filled with funny quips that got a laugh from everyone!

Shoutout to the vendor team that made Taylor & Tyler’s wedding day so beautiful!

Kyndall & Cole – Wedding Portraits at Texas Christian UniversityFort Worth, Texas

July 27, 2017 Romantics

They say rain is good luck on a wedding day and if that is true Kyndall and Cole will walk through their marriage with luck at their side! We all expect July weddings to be hot but on this day a surprise summer storm popped up just as these two were about to say I do! The rain was outside so we played inside! The new renovations at Robert Carr Chapel look awesome and you can see how crisp and beautiful this classic chapel is in these photos. The rain just wouldn’t let up but we didn’t let that stop us from getting some photos in the Horned Frog Football Stadium! At the Amon Carter Stadium it was drizzly and humid but we embraced the day and the humidity for some super cute photos for these TCU alumni.

Thank you to the vendors who made Kyndall & Cole’s day so beautiful!

Bethany & Tyler – Wedding Ceremony at Robert Carr ChapelTCU Fort Worth, Texas

June 29, 2017 Ceremony

Hey! Look at this beautifully remodeled and fresh new look at Robert Carr Chapel! The iconic church on the campus of Texas Christian University just finished a long renovation earlier this month and I was SO excited to see it finished. I love the updated color palette, new floors, expanded altar and all the amazing amenities they have added. Can’t wait for all my upcoming weddings here!

Okay, enough about the new look at Robert Carr – back to Bethany & Tyler! Before walking down the aisle Bethany’s friends laid hands on her and prayed over her, the wedding and her life ahead as a Mrs. It was so sweet! During the ceremony these two were all smiles and I can’t blame them – I was too! Their pastor was hilarious – he gave a challenging word of inspiration. Pushing them to seek after a marriage that was full, overflowing and rich in all things – like a big gulp! Yes, a big gulp, and he had the cup to drive the point home as a prop! After saying I do, embracing the idea of a marriage that is MORE they kissed and it was done! They were married!

Robert Carr isn’t just gorgeous inside, it is outside as well and we took some beautiful photos of these two on the steps and around the chapel.

Kyndall & Cole – Engagement Photos at Botanic Gardens at TCU CampusFort Worth, Texas Christian University

October 26, 2016 Engagement

Kyndall & Cole are getting married next summer at TCU! Yep, ceremony at Robert Carr Chapel and the reception overlooking the stadium at the TCU Champion’s club! Texas Christian University is a huge part of this couples story, it is where it began so it makes so much sense that they will be saying I do there too! They met as freshman and were friends thorough out college. Cole knows he was firmly place in the friend zone and he worked hard to get out of it and eventually Kyndall came around and fell hard for this sweet and loving man. He is a little soft spoken but I think Kyndall’s bubbly and outgoing personality make them a perfect pairing. So complimentary! This past summer both of their families vacationed together in Hawaii where Cole proposed 0 so special! I had so much fun hanging out with them and loved Kyndall’s deep purple lace dress and her adorable “game day” outfit for the football stadium. So much fun! Can’t wait for the wedding! Rah Rah TCU!

August 25, 2016 Ceremony

LOVED photographing these two at Robert Carr Chapel after their wedding. They really look so timeless and romantic and it was amazing how we squeezed so much yumminess into such a short amount of time after the ceremony. The light by the windows was to die for – look at all the pretty (including the gorgeous Sarah!) Outside we played with the collums, the building, sunset light and their wedding party! Off to the real party at the City Club of Fort Worth!

Sarah & David – Wedding Ceremony & First Look at Omni Hotel & Robert Carr ChapelFort Worth, Texas

August 24, 2016 Ceremony

So absolutely in love with his day and this couple! Sarah and David are sweet, genuine and so very kind to everyone around them. I felt as though I was part of the family as I celebrated along side them and captured the most important day of their lives. These two prepared for their wedding at The Omni Fort Worth before a first sight on the garden deck. But before David could see Sarah – 1st she had to see her #1 man since birth – Daddy. Her Father was all smiles seeing his little girl dressed in white and they both cried as she gave him a precious gift. It was incredibly sweet. She got out all the tears and was all smiles and laughter when she finally saw her groom. Her dress was stunning and I know David agreed!

Upon arrival at Robert Carr Chapel at TCU (Texas Christian University) we did some final preparations and these two said I Do! Their wedding rings were gorgeous in gold – so fun to see gold making a comeback in engagement rings and bands!

This day was pretty flawless and I have to say it was in part to an amazing team I got to work along side (Thanks Sarah & David for picking the best!)

Laura & David – Engagement at Texas Christian University Campus & StockyardsFort Worth, Texas

May 13, 2016 Engagement

TCU is a part of this couples story even if they didn’t meet there. They both attended Texas Christian University but met after Laura graduated playing sand volleyball. We kicked off their engagement session at the stadium and around campus to give a nod to their pasts and that because of that connection and mutual fiends and interests these two were destined to meet. With Laura’s California roots and David’s feet firmly planted in Texas we headed over to the stockyards for some laid back photos that give a nod to their home, the place they have placed their roots together as a couple. Loved hanging out with you two and can’t wait of your wedding this Fall at Classic Oaks Ranch!

Casey & Andrew – Wedding Ceremony at Robert Carr Chapel TCU

October 7, 2015 Ceremony

Casey & Andrew were just a perfect start to Fall wedding season. This couple just made me cry, laugh and have all the feels behind the camera!

Casey and her girls did all their primping at the Fort Worth Omni hotel before heading to the chapel for finishing touches. Casey’s ladies looked pretty awesome in their coral gowns and the bouquets with draping orchids were modern and clean and so beautiful! Best part of their day hands down was Andrew – crying as his gorgeous bride walked down the aisle to him. I was so glad that I was able to turn and get his face as the doors opened. I agree Andrew – she looked so good I almost cried too! I wish every groom was overcome with emotion like that! After the ceremony we grabbed a few quick photos outside as the sun was setting before we headed off to the reception at Shady Oaks Country Club.

Madison & Holt – Wedding Ceremony at Robert Carr Chapel at TCU

July 30, 2015 Ceremony

I have said it before and it’s time to say it again. BEST part of every wedding – THIS! After the couple walks out of the church their first moments as man and wife are the best. I GET to be with them for it and it just makes my day. Love that as they exited the church this couple immediately was all hugs, squeezes and big smiles.

Madison and Holt prepared for their wedding at The Renaissance Worthington in downtown Fort Worth. Madison selected to have her Mom & Sister help her with dressing and then surprising her bridesmaids with a big reveal in her gown. We always love the reactions on friends faces to the bride! Holt and his men took over the lobby for final details. After arriving at TCU the couple selected to share a private moment with out seeing one another around a door. A few quick words of good luck, and see you soon before it was time to head down the aisle at Robert Carr Chapel.

Check back for their fun wedding reception at The Modern! Thank you to their vendor team:
