Earlier this year I had the awesome opportunity to photograph a stunning wedding with my friend, Lexie Krug. We met a couple years ago at a shoot out I organized, and we’ve loved working together! This time she asked me to give her a hand at the wedding of Michael and Ashley. The intimate celebration was on the back patio of a stunning, vintage home, turned wedding venue just outside of Fort Worth, Texas. 
I always tend to get emotional at weddings, even behind the camera, but Ashley’s moments with her sweet mom were what got me choked up the most! Her dad passed a couple years ago, so watching these two women on such as special day, took me straight back to the moments with I shared with my mom on my own wedding day. 
These sweethearts decided to not do a first look, but they still wanted to have a quiet minute together before the ceremony. They wrote the most precious notes to each other and said a heartfelt prayer to bless their new marriage. 
PS Can we just take a second and make heart eyes at Ashley’s STUNNING blush gown!?!? Come on! Even better? She found it at a thrift shop no one ever heard of! 
And, her bouquet truly made my heart sing! 
Even her bridesmaids went gaga! 
The ring bearer’s sign couldn’t have been more accurate 
Michael’s reaction was perfect!! He literally applauded as his bride came up the aisle! 
The mother-daughter dance had EVERYONE in tears 
And the tears kept on flowing during the mother-son dance 
This wedding was one for the books! The couple, the love, the venue and that DRESS…. I’ll never forget it <3
