Lauren+ Michael: Shreveport Engagement Photographer

Sometimes love can be extreme and extravant, sometimes it can be simple and subtle. Lauren and Michael are A. two of my favorite people B. a wonderful example of the simple, subtle love that withstands all. In celebration of their upcoming wedding, while I was in Shreveport for Thanksgiving, we (as in Lauren and I, because there was an LSU game on so Michael wasn't super into taking pictures, but he was a trooper non the less) met in downtown Shreveport to have a little fun documenting this time in their love! 


The whole quote from Mother Theresa reads: 
Even the rich are hungry for love, for being cared for, for being wanted, for having someone to call their own.
 --Mother Teresa  














Lauren & Michael, I can't wait until March, cause this girl and her camera are ready to PAT-TAY.

Ruston Engagement Photographer: Graham + Morgan

In Kindergarten while being read storys of Prince Charming she didn't realize her prince charming was sitting in the very same room. Playing house in elementary school was a foreshadowing of her life to come, although she could have never guessed that her husband was playing with trucks only a few feet away.  In middle school when cooties were turning into friendships she didn't know that the best friend she made in between classes would be her best friend for life. 

As their middle school friendship gave way to something more Graham and Morgan got their first clues that their lives would include each other. 
Their's is a lifetime of love.
 22 years down forever to go.

Louisiana Wedding Photographer: Mason & Bethany

 
The wedding began with a radiant light pouring in the window reflecting off her contagious smile. Bethany's laid back laugh calmed the flurry of activity that brought the house alive. Hairs were curled and placed perfectly, mascara was swept on, lips coated with a simple swipe of gloss, everything normal. Bethany laughed and asked "do I even need to wear eyeshadow?". We all scoffed and reminded her that this was her wedding day after all.

This simple question summed it all up because ultimately it wasn't about her hair, her make up or even the expertly designed decor. It was about marrying the man of her dreams. The man that had chosen to love her and that she chose  to love back. Yes, her bridesmaids insisted she wear eyeshadow but she could have just as well gone with out because the joy radiating from her was enough.

Bethany, you were angelically beautiful. Mason you are incredibly hysterical. I am blessed to call you friends, to capture the start of your beautiful life together. May you always remember these sweet moments with friends and family and be reminded of how much we love you.

Some of my favorite details are the duck hunting details that they added. This is Mason's wedding ring. It is a replica of a "Duck Band" (dont worry if you don't know what that is I had to get it explained to me too). He even included a phone number which reads "1800-***-Beth"


Bethany's OH so talented mama, affectionately known as Lor, made these PRECIOUS duck cake toppers for the grooms cake. Please note the top hat and the veil. ADORBS.
