Steele Family

2008-10-05T15:02:00.000-07:00

Bret and I had a great time Saturday evening photographing Jeff, Meagan, their son Beau, Josh and his two sons Caleb and Elijah. The shoot took place in Bee Cave, TX. There is a pond at the location and we had a curious water moccasin there in the pond checking us out. This isn’t all of the pictures, but we hope that you enjoy these.

Jenna & PJ Engagement Shoot

We first meet Jenna and P.J. at Melanie and Anthony's wedding in May. They are such a sweet couple. Above is an image of them we took at Melanie and Anthony's wedding reception. We met with Jenna and P.J. again this past Saturday for their engagement shoot at the San Jose Mission in San Antonio. Great choice Jenna. Here are some of our favorite images from the day. We hope that you both enjoy them. Bret & Christy

We had a cousins weekend.

2008-08-15T23:07:00.001-07:00

I took the boys to Goldthwaite to see my cousin Maryfaye and her two kids. We had a really good time. Nathaniel and Buddy had a great time playing in the treehouse and waging war on the ants.

I love these pictures of Caeley and Pa.

Caeley is such a beautiful litttle girl.

Bret surprised me for our anniversary and took me away to Meusebach Creek Bed and Breakfast for a few days. We had a really wonderful time. Being out in the country is the most relaxing place for me. The house was built in 1859 the stone walls are about 2 feet wide the workmanship is incredible. Here are a few images of the house and the view from the front porch.

What a beautiful wedding and reception you had. We could have taken pictures for ever there. The music and dancing was incredible like nothing we had ever seen or heard before. I hope you enjoy your images as much as we enjoyed taking them.

Elizabeth & David's Wedding

What a sweet couple Elizabeth and David are. Throughout the day, David was so gentle and caring towards Elizabeth. They were married at Scenic Springs Spa outside of San Antonio a beautiful location we had never been too. Thanks so much for letting us be a part of your day. Here a few of our favorite images.

Last Night in Goldthwaite

2008-03-20T22:25:00.000-07:00

We took the boys to the park this evening. Nathaniel had a blast playing with his friends from church. Andrew wanted to run with them but he hasn't even mastered walking yet so he had to be content being carried around. I should so be in bed right now because we have to get up early to start loading the truck. Daddy is coming to help and he loves early so we are starting early. My next post will be from Johnson City.

Goldthwaite

2008-03-14T21:40:00.001-07:00

Since we're moving to Johnson City next Saturday, I wanted to take some pictures of my home town. I spent about an hour today walking around and taking pictures of things and places of Goldthwaite that meant something to me and some that I just thought looked cool. Let me know what you think.

Kirsten & Joe Dan's Wedding

2008-03-06T00:49:00.000-08:00

Kirsten and Joe Dan, it was very nice to meet you, spend time with you, and photograph your wedding. Collectively, you have a wonderful family. Kirsten, I hope that I never forget what your 95 year old grandmother said when Will said, "She's my date tonight." She said, "No, he was my date last night, I have a new date tonight." Horseshoe Bay made for a great wedding and even with the overcast sky and the wind at times, it was a great wedding day and we enjoyed capturing your veil blowing out and up in the wind as well as the dramatic mood of the clouds in the sky. Congratulations and we hope that you enjoy these first pictures of your wedding day.

Bret and Christy.

The Head Grandchildren

2008-01-07T08:33:00.000-08:00

We went to the home of Gerald and Wilma Head on Christmas Eve to take pictures of their great-grandchildren. Gerry and Chip of Heads Insurance have always taken care of all our insurance needs so it was a pleasure to meet the rest of their family. What a wonderful group of kids. We really enjoyed getting some shots of them playing with the cool remote control dragon fly. Bret and I hope y'all have a wonderful new year.

Amy & Russell Wedding

2008-01-07T00:01:00.000-08:00

Happy New Year and Congratulations Amy & Russell. We hope that all is well with you and that you are enjoying your happily ever after. We enjoyed getting to spend time with you and photograph your wedding. Here is a preview of some of the pictures that we have worked on. We hope that you enjoy these and we would love to hear back from you. We will keep you posted as the editing progresses.

Caedon and Caeley

2007-12-06T15:21:00.000-08:00

My cousin Maryfaye came down a couple of weeks ago from San Diego to escape the fires, we really enjoyed the unplanned visit. Of course we had to have a photo shoot with the kids and the weather was just perfect. Caeley and Caedon are great little posers we had such fun while they were here. Bret and I are looking forward to seeing them and Corben who couldn't come because of work, at Christmas. I think Nathaniel is definitely looking forward to them being back the most though.

Melanie and Anthony

2007-12-06T09:02:00.000-08:00

We took a little trip down to San Antonio this past weekend and had a wonderful time meeting and photographing Melanie and Anthony. The food and conversation at the Alamo Cafe' was nice as well. We are really looking forward to your wedding in May. Thanks for a great day!

Kaley and Casey's Wedding

2007-12-04T19:47:00.000-08:00

Kaley and Casey's wedding was a beautiful fall wedding. We had a wonderful time. I felt so sorry for Casey because he had been sick. It was so sweet when he sent flowers and a card to Kaley before the ceremony that made her cry. Best wishes.
