A huge thanks to Sarah for asking me to second shoot for her!

The handsome groom himself, Jack.

Jack and Jill decided to see each other before the wedding which I LOVE!  It gave us a ton of time to get some beautiful portraits of just the two of them on their wedding day and take advantage of that beautiful light before it got dark outside.

I think Jack approves  :)

I loved Jill’s dress from BHLDN.

Everyone is always so happy and full of smiles on a wedding day.  I love it.

I find it ironic that Bandit doesn’t want to play with any of his scattered-on-the-floor toys until I decide it’s time to put them away.  Just last week there were at least ten of his toys on the floor.  He watched me pick them up, followed behind me as I put them in his toy box and then proceeded to take every single one of them out again.  I’m pretty sure it’s some sick game to him.

For the past month or so, ever since Instagram was released to the Android world (much against the joy of my iPhone friend users), Instagram and I have been getting acquainted with one another.  I’m pretty sure I annoy anyone and everyone who follows me on Instagram.  About 95% of what I upload are pictures of Harley and Bandit.  If you want to have your day brightened on a daily basis with a dose of Harley and Bandit, follow me @kaseylynnphoto.

An excerpt from a conversation with a friend a few weeks ago- ”pretty much feel free to ignore everything I say since I don’t know what I’m talking about” – My advice to them.  Insightful, I know.

If you’d like a good laugh or are easily amused like myself, google the word askew.  You’re welcome.

And just because….here’s a peak into my Instagram life over the past month.

Recently, Katie and I decided to put together a styled shoot, nautical themed, just for fun and to get creative again.  Lucky for me, Katie is super crafty and handmade a lot of what we used during this shoot.

A huge thanks to Zack and Brynn who are adorably cute and were fantastic models for us!  These two are recent residents of Houston as of a few months ago, and I hope they had fun in front of our cameras and seeing another part of Houston.

Katie and I choose the Kemah Boardwalk for our location.  We had envisioned sailboats as part of the backdrop and ended up making friends with a couple of boat Captains to let us down to the dock area that was gated off.  It was so worth it, because these photos turned out AH-Mazing and just what we were envisioning!

A huge thanks to Thea from KAYO by Thea who did Brynn’s fabulous makeup!

Love these next two…I think it’s safe to say I love laughter.

Brynn, that picture on the left?  You look gorgeous!

A favorite.

I waited a few weeks to introduce Cocoa to my blog, and you readers out there, because I wanted to make sure this adoption actually took and was legit.  See, Cocoa wasn’t the first dog we tried adopting.

About two months ago we went to shelter in Houston for a dog that I saw on the Lone Star Shih Tzu & Lhasa Apso Rescue.  We fell in love with her.  She was so sweet and lovable.  Mom decided to adopt her and we made an appointment to come back in two days after she had been spayed.  The day before we were to pick her up we got a call from the shelter saying that when they took her in for her surgery the vet noticed lots of wheezing and breathing issues.  Long story short, she ended up having lots of medical problems and the shelter wouldn’t let us adopt her.  We. Were. Crushed.  

Finally, about two weeks ago I was able to talk my mom into going to a different shelter and looking again.  That’s where we found Cocoa, a sweet, adorable Maltese-Terrier dog, full of long matted hair and in desperate need of a serious bath.  We adopted her that day, took her to our vet two days later where she got a clean bill of health and now there’s a new member of our family.  Harley and Bandit have been introduced and everyone seems to get along great for the most part.

Here’s Cocoa with extremely short hair after a trip to the groomers to get all her mats cut out.  I told ya…adorable, right?  :)

I love how in love these two are with one another and how excited they were to just be married.  And I’m super stoked that I was the one to document it for them.

Cayley and Kevin, I don’t think even you know how much I adore you two.  Ever since meeting in Starbucks and talking for what?  Like two hours?  I felt like I made two new friends that day.  When I make it to Hawaii for a visit, you’re the first one I’m calling!  :)

Huge thanks to my girl Katie for helping me out and being my second shooter for the night!

Don’t forget to check out Cayley and Kevin’s super cute engagement session here.

Cayley and Kevin got married at the Courtyard on St. Jame’s Place.

Cayley, you look STUNNING.

Kevin doesn’t look too bad himself.

LOVE these photos of Cayley and her Dad right before the ceremony.

Married!

This is what a fun wedding party looks like…laughing.  All. The. Time.

I normally don’t post pictures from the toasts, but I loved the emotion in these.

And some good ole’ dancing.

I was super happy when Cayley and Kevin were up for sneaking away for a few minutes to take some night portraits.

Congratulations Cayley and Kevin!
