nikki and justin [engagement session] part three

here is the third and final post for nikki and justin's engagement session...the first picture is one of my favorite's from the entire session.

currently i am working on a album from kathryn and tim's wedding in april and am hoping to complete that soon. i've also got many, many weddings for friends coming up in the next few weeks and we're starting it off tonight with joel and emily's rehearsal dinner and wedding tomorrow night...i'm not taking the photographs so i will get to enjoy this wedding and i can't wait until these two are married. then on saturday i am taking brandi's bridals - my good friend who stood with me when i got married and i'm so excited to see her in her dress and take some pictures back in aggie land. (i don't think i've ever said that before).

but for now, here are the pictures from nikki's and justin's engagement session:

nikki and justin [engagement session]

Yesterday I got to photograph my best friend since 7th grade and her fiancee. They have known each other FOREVER and have been dating since our senior year in high school. I think there is a story about them kissing in elementary school or getting "married" in elementary school...it's something cute that I can't remember right now. Anyways, we had a blast yesterday and I can't wait to finish editing and blogging more pictures, but for now, here is a little sneak peak of what's to come later on in the week!! I can't wait for your wedding in November!

sara [creative director, personal assistant, awesome sister]

Yesterday Sara and I went into Houston to take pictures of Nikki (my best friend since 7th grade) and her fiancee (who i've also known since 7th grade and who she has been dating since the end of our senior year in high school). To put it short and sweet, Sara was AWESOME. She carried the gear, carried shoes and watches, tromped through the water to check out the fountain, posed Nikki and Jusitn when we needed inspiration, and provided a lot of entertainment throughout the day. She is by far the best assistant and creative director EVER and and even better sister. Lots of love to you, Sara...now don't kill me for posting this picture, haha.

around san antonio [carver dancers]

This afternoon Matthew and I went to see a girl in the youth group perform at the Carver Center. She's been dancing for a LONG time and tap is her speciality, although we saw her in a ballet performance the other week and she was fantastic at that too, so I don't know how one is her specialty and not the other. Anyways, here are a few pictures from some of the different groups performing.

ken-david [san antonio symphony conductor]

Matthew and I know some really cool people here is San Antonio who have some really cool jobs. Yesterday I blogged some pictures of Becky - the pastry chef at Coco Chocolate Lounge and Bistro, and in my opinion, the best pastry chef in San Antonio. She was recently featured in the San Antonio Express News for her work at Coco's. Her treats are amazing. But this post is about Ken-David, conductor for the San Antonio Symphony. He is so energetic and enthusiastic when he leads the symphony and it has been so delightful to photograph him and get to listen to the symphony. I shot some in color, but I prefer them in black and white.
