Ryan & Amy Wood

June 27, 2009

Ryan had a crush on Amy in high school. She was his dream girl. In my opinion, Amy was probably a lot of guys’ dream girl. I mean, she’s got a lot going for her. When Amy and Ryan graduated (they were in the same class), they both decided to go to Tarleton State University and enter the nursing program, where they crossed paths more than they expected. Somewhere along the way, Ryan’s humor, kindness, and godliness attracted Amy to him. As Ryan and Amy developed their relationship, Amy realized what a great catch she had, and Ryan got the girl of his dreams. On June 13th, they had such a fun and beautiful wedding and I was so honored to capture the day for them. Enjoy getting to see some of Amy and Ryan’s day.

Amy (Eakin) Wood

June 15, 2009

I don’t even know how to describe Amy’s beauty. She’s amazing, inside and out. Simply beautiful. I have been waiting for weeks to post her bridal pictures because I didn’t want her new hubby Ryan to see them before the big day. Well last Saturday was the big day. I had such a great time with Micah, who was my second shooter, trying to capture the day for Ryan and Amy. Their wedding was absolutely beautiful and I’m so honored that they chose me to photograph it for them! I’ll have to tell you more about Ryan and Amy’s story when I post their wedding pictures (which I’m working hard to post process and should have blogged within the next couple weeks)!
Here is the stunning Mrs. Amy Wood.

Pageant Princess

June 9, 2009

Hello blog readers! Guess what I did today? An INDOOR shoot. Yeah. I finally got to use my new lighting equipment that I got on clearance from my favorite camera supply store Ft. Worth Camera.  I think it went really well. My client was a 2 year old pageant princess who has won some serious titles in her age division in multiple pageants. She’s a little princess. Anyway, the front room of my house is my designated indoor studio and I’m so thankful that I’m able to use it! God is so cool for blessing us with our house. Seriously…. I truly am amazed and humbled. But anyway, here is a couple pictures of Cassie!

I’ve got a wedding to shoot this weekend in Grapevine and I’m really excited about it. It’s Amy and Ryan’s wedding and I can’t wait to spend the day with them. I also can’t wait to post Amy’s bridals! I’ve been waiting weeks!!! Anyway, I’m getting all of my equipment together for the wedding. If you are a photographer and are interested in what’s in my bag, I’ll be taking:

In my Shootsac:

Canon 50D (Have a 40D for backup)

Canon 24-70 2.8

Canon 50 1.8

Sigma 10-22 4.5

(Renting a Canon 70-200 2.8)

580 EXII Speedlight

Along with lots of memory cards and batteries!

Also, I know this is a long blog already but I wanted to share a picture of my husband playing drums with Claybourne Ross and Chic0 (Josh) McDaniel at Ribshack BBQ a couple weekends ago. They did so great playing a plethora of tunes…. I really enjoyed it! I thought this picture was cute of all the boys jammin’ on stage. My hubby can rock a guitar, the piano, the drums….. is there anything he can’t do musically? Maybe the harp? LOL! Everyone have a great week!
