john & janice. wedding. garland, tx

 At the beginning of July, I had the opportunity to shoot a wedding for my dad and his new bride.  I was so nervous and excited.  It is an entirely different perspective to take pictures for a loved one.  I wanted each picture to be perfect. 

Dad and Janice were married at Alexander Mansion in Garland, Texas.  It was great how prepared the staff was.  They were professional, precise, and generous.

 Janice’s sons, Jace and Hunter, walked her down the isle and gave her away.  It was very sweet.201-copy

 Tucker and Tanner did so good during the ceremony.  They handed Dad the rings when he needed them.  They were very excited to be a part of the day.  They were even pumped when they were getting ready because they had clothes to wear that looked like their daddy and their Uncle Jason.  222-copy1

The wedding party.  I did not get one with my brother’s head looking up.  He looked down and watched our nephews the whole time, but that is what I love - real life, relaxed pictures!

After we finished pictures with the wedding party and family, Dad, Janice, and I ducked outside to capture some natural light before it was gone.  I love how relaxed and happy they look in these pictures.

The evening was filled with laughter, dancing and fun!  I love the one above of my sister and my dad.  The little girl looking on and watching them grasps my heart!  I have always thought of my sister as a princes and my dad as a king.  The expression on the girl’s faces proves I must have been right!
