A Winter Wedding in Bryan, Texas January 10, 2009







Well, the big day finally arrived! Kimbra and Luke were all smiles on their wedding day! They were married at Beacon Baptist Church were Luke's dad, Pastor Nolan Richey said their wedding vows. Then it was off to the Astin Mansion. 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 Uniquely Yours Weddings and Events and amongst the beautiful decorations was the fantastic cake design of Sandee Moss of Cinderella Stories. Not only was the cake beautiful but tasted delicious.  

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. Norwood Portraiture.

Busy Bridal Weekend













The weekend started out with a trip to the Astin Mansion located here in Bryan, Texas to meet with one of our brides, Kimbra Lindsey. She and Luke will be married in January with their reception following at the Mansion. The Astin Mansion was built in 1924 by Roger Q. and Nina Heard Astin. A perfect example of the grand 1920's style architecture, this gem has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Because of the beautiful architecture and scenery, it seemed like just the right place to shoot her bridal portraits.  Kimbra is in pharmacy school in Austin and Luke is working in Fort Worth but both attended Texas A&M University.

After driving through the hectic traffic of both San Antonio and Austin, she arrived with her mother and father. Dad was sent off so he wouldn't see her in her dress and mom and friends and roomie stayed around to help out.

Her are just a few shots from her session. I love her dress!
