Matt and Ashley - A "Good" guy always gets a "Good" girl

Last weekend the Girls shot back to back weddings and seriously what better way could we have kicked off the summer than with 2 outdoor weddings!!! We started with Ashley and Matt’s which was held at the Courtyard on St. James Place. It was absolutely beautiful and the weather…well...ummm… even if it felt like a heat wave had blown into the city of Houston….it's what we know and can expect this time of year. But like I tweeted….every Houstonian bride has the right to have that perfect outdoor wedding in the beginning of summer...even if it is 100 degrees! Those of you from Houston know how our seasons work...winter, 2-3 days of spring (if that)….then BOOM….its SUMMER!!!

But the heat couldn’t ruin this night. Their love was real and it showed. Words cannot describe the emotions Matt displayed the first time he saw his beautiful bride that night….and as Matt put it….(Ashley) you never looked more beautiful to me then when I saw you walking down that aisle. As if melting in the heat wasn’t enough already….when he said those words to Ashley I think our hearts melted a little too. Ahhh… Sweet Romance.

Soooo many friends and family had the kindest words about these two but what I thought was true was when Matt’s father talked about how Matt was just a “good” guy….such a compliment. As girls we know it can sometimes be difficult to find a good guy. But in the end the good guy got the good girl….

Congrats Ashley and Matt we loved being part of your special day. Slideshow to come later this week!

The Dominguez Family

This weekend I stopped by the Dominguez family residence (my cousins) for a quick shoot with little Mariah who will soon be turning 3 years old. I shot her 2 year pictures last year at the cupcake boutique. This year her mom is 7 months pregnant with a baby boy! We decided to shoot in their home since the Houston weather has been in the 100's lately. Here are a few of the favs.

Weddings, Burgers, and Fruit...

This weekend was a busy one for TGC. We had back to back weddings Friday and Saturday. Ashley and Matt's wedding was Friday night in Houston. Then Saturday morning we headed out to Calvert to photograph Charlotte and Spencer's wedding. Of course we had to make the usual starbucks stop to get our 3 perfect oatmeals and 3 caramel light frappuccinos. The morning snack didn't hold us long so we made a lunch stop in College Station. We googled places to eat in College Station and the "Stover Boys Burgers" came up! These were absolutely the BEST burgers we have ever had!!! We got to talking with the owner who was so nice. We told him we would tell everyone about the place. So if you are ever in College Station you have to try Stover Boys Burgers.

After the Saturday wedding in Calvert, we tried to drive home but realized we were too exhausted and had to stay in College Station and head back in the morning. On our way back Sunday morning, we saw the cutest little farmer's market on the side of the road so we stopped to check it out and get some fruit!










Anyhow, we made it back to Houston in time to spend the day with our wonderful dads! We had a blast at both weddings. Can't wait to get them up and blogged. For now here are some of our favorite bridals of the two beautiful brides.

Summer's just outside our window!

Last week for Memorial Day, we (The Girls, Clinty Poo, and Dyl Dyl) decided to head to one of our favorite cities in the world - Austin, Texas. We figured since summer is so close, it's time to get our tan on! Lucie came up with this grand idea of going para sailing. So, we went to Volente Beach on Lake Travis where we para sailed and rented a boat for the rest of the evening. Since all three girls are basically afraid of heights we figured it would be a memorable experience. Sarah ended up being fearless not afraid to let go, while Felecie and Lucie held on for dear life.

We have been busy doing a lot of bridals lately,(which we cannot post until the weddings) we thought we would post pics from our little trip!
