Kim and Bubba had been clients of ours for several months and we got to really know them as we documented their engagement session and Kim's bridal session. Kim is a school teacher in Bryan and Bubba works for Garett Mechanical. Several weeks in advance we met with Bubba, Kim, Verna Mathis (Bubba's mom) and Susan Gandy (Kim's mom) to talk about the wedding day timeline and the details of their "First Look". They had come to us with the desire to have a special "before the ceremony" photo session. We highly encourage our clients to consider this as an option for various reasons but we didn't even have to convince them. They were all for it. That Saturday I started the day by meeting Kim and several of the bridesmaids at "A Wild Hair" Salon in College Station. Then it was off to the church to get ready for the rest of the day's activities. From 3:30-5:30 pm we worked diligently and efficiently with Suzanne posing the groups and Robert shooting from the balcony and me shooting from the aisle. Due to the fact that Mass was at 6pm we were able to take a much needed break and then return in time for the 7pm wedding. The ceremony was beautiful and the reception was exceptional. It was obvious that Bubba and Kim along with their families put a lot of effort into the planning of their day. Everything went smoothly and we had such a fun time mingling with the guests and getting really fun dancing shots. The evening ended with Kim and Bubba being swept away by their limo driver. The next day they would be leaving for a skiing trip in Wyoming! Congratulations, Kim and Bubba Mathis and thank you so much for allowing us to be a part of your very special day. <br /><div><br /></div>Kathy Norwoodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15624113317563099440noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505294034949821541.post-74938597273884281092009-03-26T10:36:00.007-05:002009-03-26T10:56:52.088-05:002009 Spring Bridal Fair<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhA4SmnWWH6MM7VJ4hiQ0Tf_BFdajgVcglzJknsKfkgnpGH8W3cSuozZ0NJ-bALoyOGXNdowoFJdJUsV2kCfDyaisMDymhyphenhyphenbNGgBzUzkf8yXXUwink1sxo6_jLWwRtVzyTBNpTWp31EPXt3/s1600-h/DSC_6713a.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhA4SmnWWH6MM7VJ4hiQ0Tf_BFdajgVcglzJknsKfkgnpGH8W3cSuozZ0NJ-bALoyOGXNdowoFJdJUsV2kCfDyaisMDymhyphenhyphenbNGgBzUzkf8yXXUwink1sxo6_jLWwRtVzyTBNpTWp31EPXt3/s320/DSC_6713a.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5317524802773186386" border="0" /></a>What a great place to start a "Revolution"!

We wanted to try something unusual and I think we were able to achieve our goal. For this kind of session there are a few things to keep in mind. First, wear a white shirt or top. You will be photographed on a white background and for the most part we only photograph from right above your bustline. These are closeups, girls. We take tight shots to accentuate your eyes, lips and hair. Secondly, wear your eye and lip makeup just a tad bit darker. By doing so, we really bring emphasis to these areas. Apply the rest of your makeup as you would normally but don't worry too much about any blemishes. When you see the finished product, your skin will look like porcelain. Third, be prepared to sit on the floor for most of the session. We will use a fan to get some movement in your hair and lastly, have fun with it. This is a great time to flirt with the camera. All those pouty expressions you've practiced in front of the mirror will pay off here. I hope you enjoy the images from Nancy's session and make sure to call now to schedule your high key glamour shoot.<div><br /></div><div><br /><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div>Kathy Norwoodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15624113317563099440noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505294034949821541.post-40470393544067568882009-03-06T15:07:00.003-06:002009-03-06T15:20:31.132-06:00Just in Time for the Bridal Fair<div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3-6SNLXc_bLA3kUbrEDDhyphenhyphenQzQ0M4gL4ntthPfhMsRfpsFSaRlArGXbEhzDewmPtUDBXeZlVx64qdRCDAifeF-WBJsKco-e87tEo8eRI0U-pPBsEEMlRxkmbbKPAHXKnJVJWa-jmArfxlc/s1600-h/4.125x5.5_postcard+glamour+resize.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 243px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3-6SNLXc_bLA3kUbrEDDhyphenhyphenQzQ0M4gL4ntthPfhMsRfpsFSaRlArGXbEhzDewmPtUDBXeZlVx64qdRCDAifeF-WBJsKco-e87tEo8eRI0U-pPBsEEMlRxkmbbKPAHXKnJVJWa-jmArfxlc/s320/4.125x5.5_postcard+glamour+resize.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5310187282815718546" /></a><br />It is always exciting to announce a new product and here at K.

Kimbra and Luke were all smiles on their wedding day! They were married at <a href="http://www.beaconbryan.com/">Beacon Baptist Church</a> were Luke's dad, Pastor Nolan Richey said their wedding vows. Then it was off to the <a href="http://www.astinmansion.com/">Astin Mansion</a>. Even though it was blustery cold, there was a warm feeling throughout the night as Luke and Kimbra enjoyed their family and friends amidst the beautiful stone columns, marble floors and mahogany paneling. The day's events were carefully coordinated by Katie Seaman, formally of <a href="http://www.uyplanning.com/">Uniquely Yours Weddings and Events</a> and amongst the beautiful decorations was the fantastic cake design of Sandee Moss of <a href="http://www.cinderellastoriescakes.com/">Cinderella Stories</a>. Not only was the cake beautiful but tasted delicious. <div><br /></div><div>Our entire team of photographers was honored to have worked with the Lindsey and Richey families and wish the happy couple many years of wedded joy and know that they will remember their wedding day with fantastic images provided by K.

I said yes of course, but all I had was December 31st. Perfect for them, perfect for me. Danielle showed up at the studio with the sweetest little baby boy named Weston. He had the finest blond hair that when you photographed just right his hair looked like a little mohawk. Grandma Donna came along to help and we had a blast playing with Weston. He never cried-well almost never cried and had some of the most precious grins while he was sleeping. I can't wait to photograph him again when he is awake a little more. Here are a few images from his photo shoot. Don't you just want to take him home!Kathy Norwoodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15624113317563099440noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505294034949821541.post-20059189600127101592009-01-03T16:32:00.006-06:002009-01-03T17:20:20.817-06:00The Six Steps to Happily Ever After<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiolqu8H4NB6kdUX-PUrtBDCkxrlvWIIoj3kBSxxLaS8-R9dJCduJFmYGNiw6zu3568I9lb-_hj6P7oGzh6QfIx6Cms9rR3lm934U0jxsdsIlwQOwuFyywp8kfJ5vNUuCJSO6x1_Wm0gxM0/s1600-h/Luke+and+Kimbra+engagements+37+for+web.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiolqu8H4NB6kdUX-PUrtBDCkxrlvWIIoj3kBSxxLaS8-R9dJCduJFmYGNiw6zu3568I9lb-_hj6P7oGzh6QfIx6Cms9rR3lm934U0jxsdsIlwQOwuFyywp8kfJ5vNUuCJSO6x1_Wm0gxM0/s320/Luke+and+Kimbra+engagements+37+for+web.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5287211290369349490" /></a><br />While cruising the internet the other day, I came across something I thought would be of interest to our couples who follow the blog. Redbook did an article on "The Six Steps to Happily Ever After" and I thought I would just include the basics here on the blog. Since the majority of our business comes from our bridal clients I hope they find this as interesting as I did. First let me give credit where credit is due. Majorie Ingall wrote the article for Redbook.<div><br /></div><div><ol><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Find a shared dream for your life together. </span>Dream-sharing starts early in the relationship. Couples love to tell the story of how they met but they should continue to write and rewrite their love story as their relationship goes through their married life together. Remember that you are a team with shared values and goals.</li><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Choose each other as your family. </span>For years, each of you have been a part of another family-now you are establishing yourself as a "new" family. Learn to outline new boundaries together between you and all the families connected to you. </li><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Learn to "fight" right. </span>Every relationship will have difficulties and you will fight. What has to be remembered means staying focused on the issue at hand and respecting each other's perspective. "...couples that fight right also find ways to defuse the tension, often with humor." says Daniel B. Wile, Ph.D. </li><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Find a balance between time for two and time for you. </span>This one really hit home for me. Since 1986, my husband has worked for the airlines and had a really crazy schedule. At times, he would be home for a week in a row and I would be working full time. When the weekend came, he was on the road and I was taking care of the kids, etc. Now, I work out of the home and he still has the crazy schedule. We've learned that we don't have to do every errand together or even spend every waking moment with each other. There are days where we will run separate errands and then met for lunch. It keeps us fresh and we don't tend to get on each other's nerves so much.</li><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Build a best friendship. </span>Think about the things that make your closest friendships irreplaceable; the trust that comes with true intimacy, the willingness to be vulnerable, the confidence that the friendship can withstand some conflict. Who better to make as your best friend then your mate. "Happy couples are each other's haven." says Julie Holland, MD, NY psychiatrist.</li><li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Face down a major challenge together. </span>You're sailing through life, and suddenly you hit a huge bump. A serious illness. Unemployment. The loss of a home. A death in the family. How do you cope? The truth is, you never know how strong a relationship is until it's tested. All too often, the stress of a crisis can pull a couple apart. But the good news is, when you do make it through in one piece, you might just find yourselves tighter than ever.</li></ol><div>So enjoy just a bit a wisdom and we look forward to working with all our clients in the 2009 year.</div><div><br /></div></div>Kathy Norwoodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15624113317563099440noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505294034949821541.post-54654100810421500542008-12-31T13:33:00.002-06:002008-12-31T13:36:06.117-06:00Cell Phone in ToiletWell, I finally did it.

In November before my surgery, they came in to do their annual Girls portrait. How cool is that! We had four generations represented in the portraits. Here are just a few from their very energetic, very loud and incredibly fun session. BTW, a big thank you goes out to my sister of "Candid Creations by Mary Photography" for helping with the lighting and baby wrangling.Kathy Norwoodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15624113317563099440noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505294034949821541.post-54370145040426305232008-12-01T18:30:00.002-06:002008-12-01T18:35:11.603-06:00Just the cutest little girl in the cutest red dress!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1Lv1X02adYvri0ayPE683Q_d3nWdaQ60eDNde-a_ln7R4fqTwazdtmDEbhKxeYG4up8aFKg2AdhV57rLR5BxFwWmhYSC9lpACCtxoas_aBglXTX7AwuVPdDID061RKvP_doymFRhvAszW/s1600-h/Smilie+Girls-49.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 261px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1Lv1X02adYvri0ayPE683Q_d3nWdaQ60eDNde-a_ln7R4fqTwazdtmDEbhKxeYG4up8aFKg2AdhV57rLR5BxFwWmhYSC9lpACCtxoas_aBglXTX7AwuVPdDID061RKvP_doymFRhvAszW/s320/Smilie+Girls-49.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274984693032852098" /></a><br />I know people will say their grandchildren are the cutest but honest, mine are the cutest!

I've been working on it for a little while and it is finally done. Albums are always so personal to me but can be a lot of fun when you have the right creative mood set. I finished up yesterday listening to music and moving along with no interruptions. I hope Lori and Jeff like it as much as I do!

I love when the air turns crisp and there is a slight breeze rustling the leaves that have already fallen on the ground. I also love how nature provides a range of color in the trees. Golden browns, brilliant reds and vibrant oranges seem to blend all together to provide a rich warm palette to use for a wedding backdrop. This is what was provided for us the weekend that Colin Evett and Raechal Johnson got married. The air was nippy, the sun was warm, the trees around the <a href="http://www.thegreenbranch.net/">Greenbranch</a> were turning colors and the sunset was brilliant.<div><br /></div><div>If you get to spend any time with Colin and Raechal you immediately learn one thing about them. They are so much in love. They are truly endeared to each other and it shows in how they look at each other and how they speak to each other. When we shot their engagements earlier in the year, we had a blast wandering around downtown Bryan and we knew that their wedding was going to be really special. Colin's sister is an aspiring pastry chef so she designed and baked their wedding cake. The food was catered by <a href="http://www.pmaddens.com/">Madden's</a> and had an Italian flair due to their love of Italian food and Colin's trips to Italy. One of the bar drinks was even made special for Raechal. It was a favorite of hers from her trip to South America.</div><div><br /></div><div>The wedding was just beautiful and it was a pleasure being able to capture their love for each other from many different vantage points. One of the reasons this wedding was so enjoyable was because of the untiring efforts of <a href="http://www.TexasDreamWedding.com">Cecilia Rusch</a>, Raechal's coordinator. Cecilia made everything run so smoothly. Enjoy a few of the images that we captured from Colin and Raechal's very special day and if you are in need of wedding portraiture or even just a family portrait please contact us at <a href="http://www.knorwoodportraiture.com/">K.

Both are Aggies-Matt is working on his graduate degree in Poultry Science and Sara wants to work with exotic animals. We met up with them at the Century Tree on campus on November 9th to do their engagement session and had the best time looking for places on campus to take pictures. After spending a bit of time at the Century Tree, we strolled around looking for Aggie landmarks. The Academic Bldg made for a great backdrop and then off to the Fish Pond and a few pictures in front of Sbisa Dining Hall and then a walk over to the Chicken and Bottle Cap Alley.

"A Match made in Heaven" would be displayed on the marquee at The Palace and downtown Bryan would be our backdrop for an extremely romantic night. We were a little worried about the lighting but with the expertise of Wade, Cindy and his crew at<a href="http://www.LivewirePro.com/"> LiveWire Productions</a> the uplighting was beautiful and added to the warm mid-autumn air. <a href="http://www.universityflowers.net/">University Flowers</a> provided gorgeous fall flowers and <a href="http://www.sweetmemoriescafe.com/">Sweet Memories Cafe</a> did an awesome job with the four-tiered cake. The reception was held across the street at the <a href="http://www.brazoscottonexchange.net/">Cotton Exchange</a> with <a href="http://www.jsquaredcatering.net/">J Squared Catering</a> providing a delicious meal.<div><br /></div><div>The night was filled with show tunes and wonderful singing.

Tuesday morning I was slated for a much needed shoulder surgery on my left shoulder. We were out of the house by 5:30am and walking through the doors at 6:00am. It didn't take long for them to get me into a preop room and explain the highly technical stuff they were going to do to me. I left instructions with Robert that if anything were to happen to me, he had my permission to remarry in a year but she had to weigh more than me, have warts and talk funny...I don't think he will go through with it, but you never know!<div><br /></div><div>After explaining about how they were going to put something in my neck that would keep my shoulder numb for 3 or four days, Robert said do it-she hates pain! Yep, but I also hate looking like death warmed over too and I've got the pictures to prove it. I doubt you will ever see a post of me like this again, so enjoy it while you can. It's not the most flattering pictures I've ever taken and I promise my clients I will never take pictures like this of you. You will always look beautiful but what the heck-you lose all dignity when you have surgery.</div><div><br /></div><div>On the flip side, surgery went well, I am obviously posting this afterwards and using my left hand at least to type. I've been editing pictures in the early morning hours when I can't sleep due to being uncomfortable but at least it is not keeping me from getting work done around here. I can't lift a camera for awhile-shucks! but I can edit pictures so for all you people who just got married-don't worry-you will have your images online soon.</div><div><br /></div><div>Well, here are a few images of the block in my neck and my sling like I promised. Thanks to everyone that has called and checked up on me, I really appreciate the kind words and warm thoughts. And a big thank you goes to my mom and dad for bringing meals over and looking after me and also to my daughter and her kids for coming over and playing Wall-E with their "chief". Enough for now!</div><div><br /></div><div>Kathy</div>Kathy Norwoodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15624113317563099440noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505294034949821541.post-77130753967196361682008-11-19T08:32:00.006-06:002008-11-19T08:48:31.830-06:00He Went to Jared's!

You may ask well why is Kathy writing about this-well my friend's son asked my daughter to marry him so since this is noteworthy-it becomes blog worthy. Actually that day, Robert had lunch with Freddie to show him the ring and do the "ask the dad" question. Freddie got to walk away from lunch so I guess the answer was "yes". Now I don't know to many people who still ask the dad, so it only gave Freddie more points in the "good guy" category for me. They haven't set a date yet but probably April of 2009. Here are some of the pictures from Monday night after a Bible study that is held at their house (actually it was the Delarosa's house...)<div><br /></div><div>Congratulations, Freddie and Ashley</div>Kathy Norwoodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15624113317563099440noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505294034949821541.post-32304678333509270752008-11-13T13:41:00.006-06:002008-11-13T14:07:56.720-06:00Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHqJ1XF43_-IzJvKK4Jrj-yXYY0fN5qmnxUorRC3HmwBHKBHq5J7sMyAdk52ybHcvKDvYkTjT6gIS_3-KXltRBXtq133meI02UcgGI3ZYk8_l1I5a6ugqI1deKkcqBB-K11QpzomJp300S/s1600-h/forumbanner.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 30px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHqJ1XF43_-IzJvKK4Jrj-yXYY0fN5qmnxUorRC3HmwBHKBHq5J7sMyAdk52ybHcvKDvYkTjT6gIS_3-KXltRBXtq133meI02UcgGI3ZYk8_l1I5a6ugqI1deKkcqBB-K11QpzomJp300S/s320/forumbanner.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5268235616670170962" /></a><br />As most people know, October is Breast Cancer awareness month, but what many do not know is that October is also Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. When a parent loses a child at any age, it is hard to know what to say or do-maybe even more so when a parent loses a child at birth. The greatest joy of their life suddenly is replaced with an amazing sense of loss. This loss is always there but with the help of volunteer photographers, many parents are turning to a non-profit organization which supports grieving parents. The Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep organization is made up of affiliated volunteer photographers who share their time and talent and provide parents with remembrance photography. So why am I blogging about this organization. Because I am a volunteer member who is looking for more volunteers in the local Brazos Valley area-we need more talented photographers to share in this very sensitive type of photography. I know this isn't everyone's cup of tea and that's ok. However, I do want to talk to you if you are interested and feel you can handle this type of photographic session. I'm extremely moved by the shear strength these families display in a time of grief and desolation and I'm glad to be available when I can. <div><br /></div>Kathy Norwoodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15624113317563099440noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505294034949821541.post-39530784418026453362008-11-13T13:14:00.004-06:002008-11-13T13:39:23.304-06:00Too cute for Words!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7dT2NIWgV_BsyPvB5890LiKLFHkakENN2gX52BwnBhVmEuI1qLBY1mbmBC2_O6mga_KlYLg8Mw4XS37D6SguLL19wfFFRkDj_LnwBETkA_wLhosHY3OWVw77jTRbxFzMVpp3-5U16a1jp/s1600-h/Kimberly+and+Bubba+engagements+59+web.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7dT2NIWgV_BsyPvB5890LiKLFHkakENN2gX52BwnBhVmEuI1qLBY1mbmBC2_O6mga_KlYLg8Mw4XS37D6SguLL19wfFFRkDj_LnwBETkA_wLhosHY3OWVw77jTRbxFzMVpp3-5U16a1jp/s320/Kimberly+and+Bubba+engagements+59+web.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5268228899077069570" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdXIIi4ep4hUiCiy2kcYd93K5yMSOQuOygCknnTl3ZcXJ9Aw5UG_Zc4lFblqs6N221PVAY73RRxiEp40eWmR3PgIroELB4vBM5AMjb9U2Lz3vgCq2fCVxhuLZBOO2jYDjIbj0_ujYKdLWE/s1600-h/Kimberly+and+Bubba+engagements+38+web.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdXIIi4ep4hUiCiy2kcYd93K5yMSOQuOygCknnTl3ZcXJ9Aw5UG_Zc4lFblqs6N221PVAY73RRxiEp40eWmR3PgIroELB4vBM5AMjb9U2Lz3vgCq2fCVxhuLZBOO2jYDjIbj0_ujYKdLWE/s320/Kimberly+and+Bubba+engagements+38+web.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5268228895514316162" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguCeHp4jsF_GUT5qyJJrD-2Fn_SrTHzadeWutu93vFchgQLEKcQ7-4ThbAh3RmXwTGmys5sbNwgn5odtp0rQuNH8phVUUOUj6WIXLjUP_4Y5XYXmvs7XPw6GXLBDaCd4pMLykB6Tp48oCD/s1600-h/Kimberly+and+Bubba+engagements+13+web.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 213px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguCeHp4jsF_GUT5qyJJrD-2Fn_SrTHzadeWutu93vFchgQLEKcQ7-4ThbAh3RmXwTGmys5sbNwgn5odtp0rQuNH8phVUUOUj6WIXLjUP_4Y5XYXmvs7XPw6GXLBDaCd4pMLykB6Tp48oCD/s320/Kimberly+and+Bubba+engagements+13+web.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5268228888816300018" /></a><br />I was so excited when I got the phone call from Kimberly that she and Bubba (Donald) wanted us to photograph their wedding. We just fell in love with them when they came in to interview with us so I knew we would be a perfect fit for them. They both recognized the importance of good photography and I could feel their excitement as they talked about the wedding and their plans. It was hard for me to call Donald "Bubba" at first since that is my youngest daughter's nickname for her brother but after spending time with them on last Sunday afternoon, (November 2nd) I began to think of him as part of my family. Here are just a few of my favorites from their session at George Bush Library. Enjoy!Kathy Norwoodhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15624113317563099440noreply@blogger.com1
