Emma's Bridal Session - The Video

It is such a pleasure to be able to present the following video to all of you! Filmed & created by Gerardo Garmendia Cinematography (McAllen, TX) during Emma's Bridal photography session with Ashley K Photography (Houston, TX). The two very talented artists, who were brought together to document Emma & Paul's wedding day, joined in a fabulous collaboration of talents and produced this incredible piece of work! Both vendors have played such a HUGE part in making Emma so happy and treating her like a true princess!!! I am so fortunate to be included in even just a small part of Emma & Paul's wedding. Please keep in mind that permission has been given for me to distribute this video and these photos by the bride, along with Gerardo Garmendia & Ashley K Photography.

Turn up your speakers kiddos and enjoy the video!!! - XOXOXOX Valerie

Jackie & Ben's E-Session

The first time I met Jackie & Ben I was drawn to them! We connected immediately! They both had so much energy and were so visibly passionate for one another, it was almost impossible to ignore! Such a beautiful couple, inside and out, I look forward to coordinating their wedding day, which will be held at Puesta del Sol Sobre El Arroyo, in Harlingen. Anahi Navarro, one of my favorite photographers will be carefully documenting their special day. Here is a sneak peak, courtesy of Anahi Navarro Photography, into a wedding uniting a very special couple, and a day that will surely blow the tops off of every guest in attendance! Cheers! XX

Fun Peacock Themed Party Place Card

So as I was looking through some images of peacocks & peacock feathers today, for Emma, my November bride, and I got a little sidetracked! I found this cute peacock clip art and thought it would make for a nice addition to a place card. So I made these cute party place cards and I now want to host a peacock themed party, just so I can put these to use! Sometimes I really love getting sidetracked!

Emma's Bridal

Okay, so before anyone goes and starts throwing tomatoes at me for posting Emma's Bridal photos, BEFORE her actual wedding, let me tell you, #1, Emma has given me the go ahead to do so and #2, Paul, her Fiance doesn't blog or anything of the sort so we're safe in the knowledge that he won't be seeing these! :-) NOW....on to the show! Emma's bridal session took place atParaiso Maravilla in Houston, which will also be the location of her ceremony & reception! It is a gorgeous location which I will becoming familiar with on a personal basis at the end of this month. And her FABULOUSLY TALENTED photographer is Ashley K Photography! Emma has a great team lined up for hers & Paul's wedding in November 2009 and I'm so fortunate to be apart of it! Thank you again Emma! XOXOXO
