A great gift for your beloved...

Erica + George Bells Farmers Market Engagement | McAllen, Texas

Marisol Roten December 18, 2014

I love you more than ever, more than time and more than love
I love you more than money and more than the stars above
Love you more than madness, more than waves upon the sea
Love you more than life itself, you mean that much to me...

- Bob Dylan

George and Erica became engaged at the McAllen Public Library last year. Erica is an avid book lover so it seemed fitting or George to propose in a place full of books. I am eager and excited about photographing Erica and George's wedding. I am excited to see one of my sorority sisters get married and eager to end my 2014 wedding season with an awesome celebration.

Emily + Roy World Birding Center Engagement | South Padre Island, Texas

Come away with me, the best is yet to be. -Robert Browning

I met Emily and Roy earlier this summer and have just recently photographed their beautiful wedding this past weekend. Emily and Roy are such a sweet couple and I am delighted with the honor of being their photographer. Before we share their wedding day images, it is fitting that I share with you their engagement portraits. Because of the birds theme Emily had chosen, she and Roy opted to begin their session at the World Birding Center in South Padre Island. Afterwards, since we were on the island, the beach seemed fitting to end the day with.

You are beautiful Emily and Roy!

Mitzi + Gene Villa de Palmas Garden Engagement | San Juan, Texas

Under the Harvest Moon

Under the harvest moon,
When the soft silver
Drips shimmering
Over garden nights,
Death, the gray mocker,
Comes and whispers to you
As a beautiful friend
Who remembers.

Under the summer roses
When the flagrant crimson
Lurks in the dusk
Of the wild red leaves,
Love, with little hands,
Comes and touches you
With a thousand memories,
And asks you
Beautiful, unanswerable questions.

- Carl Sandburg
