I guess that’s how Jerad’s grandparents refer to this beautiful little plot of land (and perhaps the structure in the background there) in Mustang, OK.  It’s got everything:  pond, trees, grass…everything you need for a lovely outdoor wedding.

The little blond is Ashley’s daughter.  She would NOT take up with me until I took this particular photo.  (Guess I got her good side.)

I do believe the entire family made it out for the big day. 

The flower girls did a great job!

I told you I was her new best friend.  Hee hee.Okay, let’s get indoors where I will leave you with a few from the dance floor.

You two have a blessed marriage!

A lot of ladies came together to wish Angela and Gary the very best!

Angela’s Mom, Barbara.

I’m telling you what, she had touching and funny stories about each one of the guests!

Of course, they too had some hilarious stories of their own about the guest of honor.

The cake was fabulous!!!

Angela, we wish you a blessed marriage!

Famous for their excellent fare of entrees and fabulous desserts.

The room has been set up with care and attention to detail.Once the immediate family has arrived, we get right to business with some family photos.

This particular family had the honor of the most members so I had a little fun with them.

They didn’t disappoint me!!

The entire gang!

Nancy planned this well since we had lots ‘o time for gabbin’.  Brayden, you were the life of the party.

Well the food arrived and it was time to wind down, thank God for what He has given us and enjoy the delicious food!

Cibo Molto Buono!

Since I was the second shooter (shooting with Lindsey Brook’s photography), I got to concentrate on the guys.  Fun stuff!

Of course the “guys” included the littlest guy!

Let’s not forget the flower girl!  (Yeah the basket of petals ranked way over the photographer!)

These darlings are all related!  What a good looking group!

I’m also in charge of getting the ring shots (among other details).

I sincerely love capturing the details!On to the ceremony!

This is the other flower girl.  She was enamored of the petals as well.

The cocktail hour awaited the guests as the bride, groom and families did their photos.

I’ll leave you with their first dance.  What a fun couple!

If you’re not familiar with Pepper’s Ranch, please take a moment to get to know what they do, right HERE!

Several special people to the Pepper’s Ranch kids were in attendance.

So there was a lot to catch up on!

But mostly the day was about playing hard, yummy food and hot weather!

Enjoy your summer guys!!!

He happily played along with my silly banter.

Last one….for now.  These are my absolute FAVORITES from the session.

I started with a few of my weddings from last year.

Original

Here is Shannon.  She just recently had her one year anniversary!

And the original file.

And for fun a “pretend” bride.  This was from the meet up in Austin, TX last July (practicing bridals and shooting outside).  This lady is gorgeous!

This is one of my latest seniors.

And for fun a fur kid!  This is Bacon the sweetest Pit Bull you ever want to meet.

As you can see from the original, we met Bacon at the 89er’s parade today in Guthrie, OK.

I didn’t catch this little guys name, but he sure is cute!!

We started in the studio for a few formal shots.

But the great outdoors beckoned and we took advantage of Guthrie’s downtown atmosphere for some urban shots.

Since “C” loves the outdoors, one of the near by parks also made a beautiful backdrop.

Enjoy these!  Your gallery will be available soon!

If you haven’t guess, the location for this shower is a floral and greenhouse place.  Morrison Floral is a beautiful floral store in Oklahoma City.  It was a beautiful location for this fun event.

As always, I’m all about the details, so let’s take a peek at their big party.

Of course the BEST detail of all are our friends and family!

Sherri tells me this is the ring he proposed with.  (I LOVE it!)
