The plane landed in Texas, Ashley picked me up and off we went for her beautiful bridal shoot. In the few months leading up to her photo shoot, Ashley and I had already decided on an outdoor setting to take advantage of some of the amazing landscape in Texas but that was not meant to be. The week I was preparing to leave for Texas, Ashley wrote to me in a panic-RAIN forecasted all day Saturday, the day of our shoot! So we talked, discussed alternative plans and I rented an amazing and powerful lens that could handle any situation we came across (the 50 f/1.2!) Ashley went into action and booked two absolutely fabulous places to shoot-the Magnolia Hotel in downtown Houston (with the most amazing green velvet couch EVER!) and the Alexan Lofts (Ashley used to live there so it was perfect and if I lived in Houston I would so live there!) Ashley looked stunning, I loved her feather and her shoes rocked! Oh, and check out the pictures of her bouquet-it is made out of wood (I was so nervous every time I had to move the bouquet-not sure how fragile shaved, intricate wood is and I wasn’t about to find out.) Ashley is marrying her love, Michael, in Las Vegas at the Stratosphere in June. I wish them all the love and happiness in the world…
OMgoodness… I am in LOVE with the one on the red ottoman. Amazing!
OMG!! these are gorgeous!! Ashley is a beautiful bride and you found great venues for the background. Congrats, Ashley!!!
OMG! OMG!! OMG!!! I can’t wait to get my CD! I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!
CHERI ROOT ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!
Beautiful pictures! My favorite is the first one. 🙂 I love the dress and of course the purple – my fave! 🙂
Oh my Ashley! These are beautiful…I can’t choose which I love the most! Your photographer did an amazing job!
I love the 2nd one from the bottom… sideway on the burgandy seat!
Wow… what beautiful pics! My fav is the second one, the close up of Ashley sitting on the green sofa, it’s both elegant and playful… very nice photo!
I really like the one where she is lying down on the couch.
I really like the one where she is lying down on the couch.
I like the ones where shoes are showing as well.
Such a beautiful bride!!! Makes me teary 🙂
The green couch one is my fave!!!!
Hope Phil and I can make it to the big day!
I can’t decide between 2 different ones. # 6 makes you look beautiful (which you are by the way) and I like # 11 because it seems like you are truely happy.
Good Luck and hopefully see you in Vegas (if my grandbaby doesn’t conflict with your date)
Love always,
Aunt Kathy
Ash! The pics are phenomenal! I love the one with you kicking, the first one – well all of them…beautiful bride!
Those pictures are amazing. You are such a beautiful bride. The first one is my favorite. That pic could be in a wedding magazine!! Congratulations Ashley!! I am so happy for you and your soon-to-be hubby. Keep laughing with eachother and remember not to sweat the small stuff….because in the end….it’s ALL small stuff 😉

WOW!!!!! These are amazing — it helps that you have a FABULOUS photographer and such a BEAUTIFUL bride!!! Congratulations, Ashley… I wish you all the best in your upcoming marriage!
Ash! You look absolutely BEAUTIFUL!! And what great photography! I love the first one – it looks like a magazine cover! I wish you a lifetime of happiness!
You look absolutely beautiful Ashley!! These may be the most beautiful bridal pictures I have ever seen!
These are all stunning – the bride, the lighting, the colors. I love these pictures!
You look beautiful. Love the shoes! I love the photo of you laying on your side. Pictures are great.
You’ve done it again…Great work!!
I love all of them. Cheri you did an outstanding job! Of course, you had a beautiful subject (both inside and outside). I agree that the first one could definitely be in a bridal magazine and the one on the red couch is Ashley (playful and sexy)! I like the fourth one too. But the second one is gorgeous. It shows just how absolutely BEAUTIFUL my daughter is!
Love you!
MOM
I LOVE all of the pics, but especially the first one on the green couch where you are looking up and the next one that is the same place, but is more of a close up. I also LOVE the one of you showing your shoes…They are ALL awesome, amazing and beautiful, though!
All of the photos look beautiful! I especially like the first, second, and fourth photos. It is too difficult to choose which one is the best! You look absolutely beautiful, Ashley!
Wow!! You look absolutely amazing!! I really like the second photo…but they were all great!! It is really hard to say which one is best, because you look great in every single one!
Absolutley beautiful!! I love the first one of you on the green sofa looking up. P.S. The shoes rock as always!!!
They are all amazing! You look FABULOUS!!!!! Michael is one lucky man. My fave would be #11 (second from bottom). Congratulations!
WOW…look at how gorgeous you are. I really like the hearts on the bottom of your shoes…too cute.
