After the Wedding

Entering the reception as Mr. and Mrs. Lucius:























Rebecca and Roberta, her sister and Maid of Honor:





















Relaxing between pictures:

















Sharing a few quiet moments before returning to the reception:

















The happy parents:
































Removing the garter:









































Tossing the bouquet:


















Running through the bubbles leaving the reception:











I hope you both are enjoying the cruise! We wish you lots of happiness!

The Ceremony

This photo is a miracle photo. No one ever thought that this would be possible when Rebecca's dad had a stroke almost 19 years ago.






































Domingo, his son Domingo Jr., and Rebecca all lit the unity candle together.





































They left the church to "It's Your Season to be Blessed".





















The full wedding party (except Jack, he fell asleep!):
















Domingo's family:

















Rebecca's family:












































Before the Ceremony

These guys were so much fun! They were laughing and having such a great time. They said, "Have you ever seen guys who want to take more pictures than the ladies?"

















These are Domingo's parents.
















A few minutes before the wedding started.





















The beautiful bride!
















Rebecca and her parents.
















Putting on the garter.





















A penny in the shoe for good luck.








Wedding Details

The outside of the church:



















The dress was beautiful!





















The rings:





































Instead of a cake topper, Rebecca and Domingo chose to use a picture. The cake and the chocolate dipped strawberries were yummy!



























Kids at the Wedding

Lauren and Jack were the flower girl and ring bearer.
















































Nicole and Natalie were both bridesmaids. They walked in to "Butterfly Kisses" by Bob Carlisle. I don't think there was a dry eye anywhere when that played!









































Domingo Jr., Domingo's son, was the best man.





















A group photo of all the cousins.









Rebecca's Bridal Portraits

I have been wanting to post these ever since I took them, but I didn't want the groom to see them! The first is a collage that I had printed as an 11 x 14 and framed to display at the wedding.


















This was taken a park in Nacogdoches. She looks so pretty!






















Rebecca always wanted to get married in the old church, but there is no A/C and the pews have all been removed, so we did the next best thing and took her bridal portraits in front of it.








































































































This was taken in front of our church. Which is right in front of the old church.

Engagement Photos

We went to the Azalea Trails to take engagement photos for Rebecca and Domingo for the newspaper. One of my favorites from the day was a photo of Domingo and his son. It wasn't a posed picture. We were between shots and they were talking to each other. I thought it would make a great picture so I told them to stay just like they were and look at me. The smiles look much more natural than the posed shots.

























Here are a couple of them that I liked and a couple of the three of them together.
