Talia and Josh are such an adorable couple! The first time I met them at Starbucks along with Talia’s mom to talk wedding photography I was immediately drawn in by their warm personalities. Talia has one of those smiles that lights up the room, and Josh so obviously loves her that it’s impossible not to smile when you are with them. Laughter spilled over during our engagement session and the connection and chemistry between these two is so evident. They are having a beautiful May wedding at Cross Creek Ranch in Parker and the day is drawing near… everything is coming together for their big day… and I am excited to share these images of these two lovebirds. Josh is a baseball player, having played throughout his college career, so they thought some baseball themed photos should be a part of their session… and even though they now root for different teams, its all in good fun… and the results are totally charming!
LINDSEY AND TRAVIS’S AMAZING WEDDING AT RANGER’S BALLPARK
Lindsey and Travis’s wedding at Ranger’s Ballpark was a real highlight for Celeste and I to shoot because everyone involved… both families… were so amazing and so much fun! There was so much happiness on the field that day that it enveloped us all. It was truly a wonderful, colorful, joyful celebration of love and the joining of two families… and of course we can’t forget the love of the game as well. Obviously the couple and their families are Ranger fans but they are also Cowboy fans. In fact I first met Lindsey’s family through a friend at a Cowboy’s game, and I am so glad I did because I wouldn’t have missed this for the world! This wonderful couple have been together for some time… and spent the better part of a year planning this wedding. You met Lindsey a couple weeks ago on the blog when I posted her bridals shot at the Gaylord Texan. Neither of the families are from Dallas, but live in West Texas, although they are here often for games. So what better place to have the wedding of their dreams.
One of my favorite images from the day is this one of Lindsey’s Dad Bryan’s face the first time he saw his little girl in her dress…
It is images like this that really do say more than a thousand words… as the old saying goes. Bryan is one of those dads that truly enjoyed every minute of his daughter’s wedding. I know that men show emotion in different ways, but he was just so joyful and in the moment all day, which is rare. Lindsey’s mom Amy is such a lovely lady and having met her before the wedding when we did the Bridals I know she was loving every minute as well. Lindsey is a twin, she is a redhead and her sister is a brunette… these girls are close and it shows. The family had another wedding just last year when Lindsey’s sister Chelsea got married, so it has been a season of celebration for this family.
Just look at the expressions on Lindsey, her Dad, Travis, and even the preacher, when Lindsey and her Dad took the field… beautiful.
Yes it was hot, I mean it was June in Texas, but the sun was shining and it couldn’t have been a more perfect afternoon to have a wedding. Family and friends were in the stands and the couple, the preacher, both sets of parents, the bridal party, a videographer and two photographers were on the field… and that field is just as green as you would imagine! We had very strict instructions as to where we could and could not step, as the Rangers are serious about their grass… and Celeste and I did our best, we really did.
After the ceremony Lindsey and Travis had a sweet moment alone together in the dugout, and then it is time to get those group shots, some romantic shots of the couple, and head to the party, which was being held in the Diamond Club there at the ballpark. Speaking of group shots… I haven’t mentioned Travis’s family and his Mom Christie and Dad John and his two brothers were so full of life! You will see them having a great time dancing at the reception!
And the celebration commenced!
The night ended with everyone smiling in a cloud of bubbles… Lindsey and Travis were off to Hawaii and everyone headed home from the Ballpark. You guys really know how to throw a wedding and we are thrilled you chose us as your photographers!
