Natalie & Josh

Labor day weekend was a crazy one for the two of us. It started with a wedding in San Antonio on Friday, one in Roundrock on Saturday, and then off to Dallas for Natalie's wedding on Sunday. Natalie is one of our very best friends from the high school days. We weren't able to shoot Natalie's actual wedding day because bridesmaid duty called. We were, however, asked to capture our favorite part... getting ready!!

The bad news is... we got lost in Dallas and didn't quite make it in time to get shots of Natalie getting dressed. We also took it easy at the reception so we only have 3 pics to show. It was a nice break for us though and we were excited to be able to spend time with old friends.

Now on to Natalie and Josh. (They are the important ones here!)

Natalie's youth leader, David, officiated the ceremony. (along with Josh's grandpa!)
During his sermon he said, "if my daughters turn out to be anything like you, i would be one happy man!" As he said this, I wondered how many other fathers in the room were thinking the exact same thing. Natalie is one of the most genuine, most faithful, and most wise young girls that I have ever met. She has such a strong desire to serve the Lord and to glorify Him in her daily life. She truly is a blessing to the both of us and we are so grateful that she is a part of our lives!

Josh, we haven't forgotten about you.. :)

Josh builds up and encourages Natalie, just as a Christian husband should. It has been fun to watch the interaction between them as they have gone from friends to husband & wife!

Romans 12:1-2 encourages Christians to be living sacrifices for the Lord. Josh definitely shares his love for the Lord by serving and sacrificing for others! And I am confident that this will carry over into his marriage!

Here are some pics from Natalie & Josh's engagement session! Oh and Natalie's bridal session too.
Enjoy!
