The weather outside is killing me!!! So in love with the cool  - crisp air – perfect for the senior sessions and weddings this week Here are some photos from the local farmers market to get you in the fall mood!

Nothing is better than stacks of pumpkins!!

I heart Pumpkins!!!

I was so honored to be a part of such a special wedding reception over the weekend!! I have known the bride, Michelle for many years now. She is related to Olivia and Claudia – the adorable twins I babysat for during my college days. It was great sharing the reception fun with Michelle and her new Hubby, who were married a bit ago in Niagara Falls. The wedding reception took place at the beautiful Skirvin Hotel. I had never seen the inside of the newly remodeled hotel, and I must say it is a show stopper! Beautiful in every way! My amazing assistant, Kelsey was along for the evening and that always means fun and guaranteed laughs! She also got some amazing shots….Enjoy your sneak peek! You two are an adorable couple – and I am SO jealous of your honeymoon to Egypt! 

love both of these bridal shots…..

Loved her bouquet!

What is more perfect than an outside wedding? Just about nothing! The wedding of Josh and Marilin was just that. Perfect. These two had such a sweet story of meeting a few years back at a wedding reception of a close friend. Fast forward to now and they had their very own wedding reception at the same location as they met. It was truly magical! The wedding took place at Brookhaven Park in Norman and then the party really started at the reception. The hall was beautiful, complete with a gorgeous cake and chocolate fountain! The DJ was so much fun ,even made we want to get out there and boogie!! The moment to remember was the cake fight….I was cracking up – check it out below!! Thank you both so much for choosing Art and Soul for your wedding day. Meeting you and your lovely families was so wonderful!

The ceremony was so beautiful!

This was a beautiful addition to the ceremony….

Little Charlotte just made my day over the weekend….She was a little explorer – checking out the Botanical Gardens! She loved running all over the place, carrying her little purse, and playing with the chalk I brought. She was just adorable! It was such a pleasure meeting her family. We were able to share lots of common stories since Charlotte is not much younger than Auburn.  It is always great to have a little “mommy talk” time Enjoy your sneak peek – Charlotte is such a delight!

Charlotte was so independent and full of life – she was such a sweetie!

Daddy showing her around the park

I loved this sweet mother – daughter moment….

What a super cute family! How do I get so lucky to get the BEST clients!?!?

She was a little explorer! I had so much fun keeping up with her around the Botanical Gardens…

What a picture perfect wedding. Heather and James picked a PERFECT location to share their wedding with the world. Thunderbird Chapel is my new favorite wedding location! Amazing lighting, wonderful people in charge, and to top it off it is located in my old stomping ground – Norman!!! I am just a bit into these proofs and already in love. Can’t wait to dig deeper into these…Thanks so much to Heather and James for choosing Art and Soul for your wedding day. You are a match made in heaven and it was such a honor to witness your love.

A funny moment when Dusty tried to take a swing…..Problem was the swing was a little small to support him and he wound up on the ground. Good thing I was right by with my camera, huh Babes

Say Cheese! Zoe said that she and I were “picture taking buddies”
