shepard-5042.jpgABOUT BROOKE: Hi!  My name is Brooke and this blog was created so I could share my world with you!  This is my journal....a place where I can come and share a bit of who I am and what I love to do!  I am a photographer based out of Houston, Texas but travel all over.  I really love traveling and seeing the world and people interacting in it!  I am a really simple person and find that my photographs speak simplicity. Take a look around and gain a better feel for what I love to do. I hope that in the process of searching through my blog you get a chance to know me better. I would love to hear from you....so say hi and don't be shy!


I am excited to share a fun write up about our photo booth, QUESO.  You may have had the chance to stick yourself in front of it a couple of times this year.   Modern Brides Magazine who also publishes Houston Magazine just released their newest issue and there is a fun write up in there.  I love my quotes in there too, so deep!  You will also find Elizabeth and Ben's wedding that we shot back in October on page 94/95. Danyette with To Be Wed did a wonderful job planning their day.  Also, a congrats to my friend Clint his piece in the article too!

Excited to have a 4 page feature in The Knot Texas magazine!  We shot Danielle and Sam's wedding last year out in Washington Texas and it was so fun and special that it was chosen as one of the 20 unique texas weddings. Check out this historic wedding below.

I was excited that Emily at Once Wed was a sucker for Kim and Zak's wedding and we were thrilled to have it featured on her blog!  You must read the blog post here  - Kim had a wonderful description of what inspired her wedding decor and day.  This DIY wedding was completely unique to the couple and that's inspiring.

I am happy to feature one of my amazing vendors this week.  If you are a bride who has received your wedding album you have likely worked with Katie at KruBooks.  She is my album designer who has been amazing this year in designing all of my wedding albums.  Katie has had a passion for album design for a long time and wanted to make that into a full time job...in 2007 she made that happen and started KruBooks.  Her work shows her passion for her job, plus, she is amazing to work with.  Here is a recent wedding she designed for Oscar and Jessica! I think it turned out wonderful and I know that they will love it!  Click on the slideshow link to view the full album!
