Whitney+Luke’s Grapevine Engagement Session

admin — Fri, 10 Sep 2010 19:38:41 +0000

So, so excited to feature Whitney and Luke on today’s blog! Whitney is a former professional dancer/ cheerleader and the most physically fit person I know… just working on this blog post made me want to go run! Sad I have to mention a disclaimer because I usually DO NOT go to this many places during one photo shoot BUT since Luke and Whitney were such a HOOT, I gave in a am sooo glad I did… We started off at La Buena Vida Vineyard in Grapevine, then headed to Main Street Grapevine, then got a couple shots at Grapevine Botanic Garden, then finished at Grapevine High School, where Luke and Whitney first met…. YES, High School Sweethearts!! How often do we see that?!?!? So ofcourse we broke in to (ok, not really) Grapevine High School and did all the things they wouldn’t let you do back then… see below for evidence

Thanks Luke and Whitney for being so fun and letting me drag you ALL OVER Grapevine!! Enjoy your photos
Luke played basketball and Whitney was a Cheerleader, so they spent a lot of time in the gym.
Kissing in the hallways=NOT ALLOWED, but we did it anyways!
And… what’s sneaking around your old high school is you can’t run through the hallways!!

Kelsi’s Senior pics

Kelsi has the most amazing big blue eyes I have EVER seen!! Absolutely gorgeous! AND she’s a dancer so we had plenty to talk about. Not that you could tell she is a dancer… she only has beautiful pointed toes in EVERY photo and a continuous big smile! After her graduation she’ll be off to Lubbock to Texas Tech to become a Red Raider. Congarts on your graduation Kelsi! Good luck in the future and I hope you keep dancing!! p.s.- work on that “Cheetos” face… Mom had it down, very entertaining

Family photos in Grapevine

Erica and Daniel are getting married in October but wanted to get some “future” family photos done in the Spring. Tell me her little boy is not the most handsome thing! I love kids, so part of my work in helping them relax and have fun with me during our photo session is teasing and playing around with them… One of my favorite parts of the job! I realize you get more natural expressions and not the “say cheese” grin that is usually in photos. We have a lot for, to say the least!

Erica introduced me to the BEAUTIFUL area in Grapevine called the Grapevine Botanical Gardens. It is a smaller version of the Japanese Gardens in Ft. worth but no photography fee (love that!!) and no entrance fee (double woo-hoo!). I definitely will be using the place more often for photo shoots. Thanks Erica!
