Our family (Mike, ReJana and Macie) was chosen to participate in a pay it forward by being photographed by an awesome photographer name John Michael Cooper. You can check out his work at www.altf.com. We are very honored and can’t wait for our session next week. The theme is “Roadside Family Portraits.” The idea is for a photographer to shoot another photographers family and then for that photographer to do the same for another photographers family and so on…..if it all goes according to plan, in a year or so, another photographer should be taking our family photo again. So, as part of our agreement, we are excited to offer the same session to another photographers family! If you are a photographer (or if you know one and can pass this on) send us an email with 1.) why you would like to be photographed, 2.) who all is in your family, and 3.) when was the last time you had a family portrait made. We can’t wait to hear your responses! info@bludoorstudios.com We will post the results of our own session next week!!!

Meet Marie and Ian! We didn’t get to spend as much time with these two leading up to the wedding as we usually do because they are living in Boston…..but had their wedding here in Dallas! The day of the wedding we truly felt like old friends, their friends and family were so warm and friendly and ready to party! Between the ceremony and reception, we stopped by Plano High School (where they went to school) and took a pic in the breezeway where they met (between bldg. A and B.) Look for the image with the A in it : ) We then stopped in Deep Ellum for some fun shots of the bridal party. We LOVE it when our couples schedule time for these types of images….they are so much fun to shoot and the results are awesome!
We had a ball working with Jacqueline Hickey Wedding Planner at the Melrose Hotel! She and her staff were amazing! Seth Hoisington with Dallas Rhythms kept the party hopping ALL NIGHT! Notice the last photo, it was like a dance club! Thanks Seth….great job as usual!! Marie and Ian….thanks for letting us be a part of your day and your family! We had a great time……now you need to come back to Texas!!!!

Meet David and Vanessa….these two were married in a beautiful outdoor ceremony at Stonebriar Country Club. We enjoyed working with Reagan, the coordinator there, and one of our future brides! David and Vanessa had a lot of “surprises” during their reception that turned out to be a huge blast. Here are a few of our favorite images from their big day.
