Steph&Juan

Is there anything more romantic than a young man in uniform saying, "I do," to his blushing bride one day before being transferred to a new military base?! We think not!

This love story provided the framework for Stephanie and Juan's breathtaking wedding at Beal Park in Midland, Texas!

This quiet Sunday afternoon was one that reminded me how much I adore being a wedding photographer! It was such an honor to be in a room with a family who loved and supported each other the way Juan and Stephanie's family did! There were sweet grandmother tears and joy filled smiles from Grandpa as he danced with his little girl. Each and every moment was a treasure!

Soft white blossoms on spring trees were the perfect setting for young love on display! Looking around, you would never have known you were in the desert of West Texas! Stephanie was radiant throughout the whole day, and each time Juan whispered into her ear, her laughter would breathe life into the cool afternoon air!

Stephanie and Juan,

Our prayer for you is that your marriage would continue to reflect the love of God as he binds your hearts together more and more each day! Thank you for trusting us to capture your wedding day!

Lucy&Luis

We are so enjoying walking through this season with Lucy and Luis! This combined engagement and family session was seriously so much fun and this sweet family was a dream to capture! I loved Lucy's attention to detail in choosing their outfits! Let's be real - Lucy could be a model! She shined in front of the camera, and I loved capturing the glow-y sunset behind her beaming smile! We cannot wait to capture her bridals soon and then their wedding later this Spring! Ah! Such dream clients!

Lucy and Luis,
You guys are made for each other! It's been our pleasure to get to know you more and capture this precious season in your lives! Thank you for trusting us!!

The Sweetest Surprise Proposal

Our friend, Evan, contacted us with an exciting idea to propose to his then girlfriend, Natalie. He could barely form sentences because he was bursting at the seams with pure love for this beautiful girl! We came up with a grand, extensive plan, and it all began with a phone call.

I called Evan while Natalie was with him to ask them to "model for my portfolio." They agreed, and so this first set of pictures is our modeling session...(all part of his big plan.) We began at the Lubbock Arboretum, and for honestly thinking this was a modeling session, Natalie knocked it out of the park!

Continue scrolling to find out how he asked for her hand!

He hugged her tight and wouldn't let go! I kept saying, "Oh, that's perfect. Stay right there! I've got to get the right shot!" As he held her, all of their family made the trek from behind a nearby building and gathered behind her. They were as quiet as possible, so she had no idea! Then, at just the right time, Evan dropped down to one knee. She immediately realized what was happening and quickly responded with a "YES!" Sweet tears and hugs galore followed as everyone celebrated the newly engaged couple!

Natalie and Evan, it was truly an honor to be a part of this wonderful day. You two are very special, and we're so excited for this next chapter of your lives. Tyler and I are thrilled to photograph and video your upcoming wedding!

Love,
Kelsie
