Amanda + Bo – Royse City, Texas Wedding
Last weekend I shot Amanda and Bo’s wedding. Amanda and Bo have been one of my favorite couples since I first met them; they are so in love and truly bring out the best in one another. Their vintage, baseball inspired wedding was amazing- It was one of the most fun weddings I’ve ever shot!! Thanks for making me a part of your special day, I had a BLAST!!!! :)

This will be the last blog post until Briley gets here… any day now… :)
Patti Vaculik - THese are fantastic! So glad your last wedding BB (before briley) was your funnest ever! Yeah…we blew it up! And yes I had several comments about you looking like you were going to pop! All the makeup/hair was done by my niece Jacklyn who caught the bouquet and is in Aveda Instatute. Garter was caught by Dave Scott, choreographer extrordinaire (So You Think You Can Dance…Stomp The Yard…You Got Served) who is also Kountry’s boss and my “son” on the west coast!! The backdrop for the ceremony was made by Sulphur Springs artist Leah Sparks. THE PLAN came together…thanks so much for saying yes last March and going the extra mile to make sure our special day was captured forever! you are da bomb!!!! love you!
