Ah, yes, Fall. Time to put on your Sunday best and drive out to some remote location with a lady wearing so so much camera equipment. Thanks to my fall photo families for patiently hiking windy trails to find that perfect light. It's been a blast!
I mean how did I forget to blog about this wedding!?! It was SO MUCH FUN! We had such a blast filming Lacey's sister's wedding (Brooke's wedding video) so we knew we were in for a good time this go around! I mean, you can just tell from watching what a fun group this is! And how special is the stuff with Jonathan and his son?!?? I die!
We ran into Lacey and Jonathan at Sidecar the other night, and they paid us one of the best compliments we have ever had. They said the day of their wedding, we were "everywhere, and nowhere." That is exactly what we try to do. Stay out of the way, blend into the background, and capture really great footage of your day.
Thank you again to Lacey, Johnathan, and the whole Rayburn family for trusting us to preserve your memories.
Sometimes you are just so busy running a business, you forget to run your business, you know? That must be what happened here because we have only posted two weddings from our 2017 season...but we have done quite a few more. For some reason, this one sticks out in my mind. Maybe because I shot this one by myself (something typically Jared does). But probably the reason is, I loved this family. I loved this wedding. I had a great time being a fly on the wall and watching all the joy shared. Best wishes to the happy couple!
I have known Katie since she was a baby...yes, a baby. As a friend of her older sister, I can remember going over to her house and seeing her in the little baby rock chair thing. And while I was always a little confused by the chaos of the four-kids-close-in-age galloway household (I am an only child), I cannot lie and say I wasn't a little jealous of the relationship Katie and her sister developed over the years.
Galloway family, thank you for trusting us to capture three incredible weddings for you. (You're next, Kevin!). We have loved every minute of it!
Katie and Baxter, wow! what incredible people you have surrounded yourself with. Your friends, family, and mentors are incredible and full of love and support for you. I know you will have a long and successful marriage! Congrats, again!

Well, here's a new one. I posted Part Two of this post, before I posted Part One. It was such a joy to watch this family experience such a special moment. Enjoy!
Here is Guy asking Maredith to spend the rest of their lives together! He even wrote his the song! From all of us, well done sir!
High winds didn't stop these two! Even though the balloons couldn't fly, love lifted these two up! Guy was just the right amount of nervous and excited and Maredith was caught COMPLETELY by surprise! He even wrote a song and sang in front of a crowd of strangers (word got around a proposal was happening at the Tulsa Balloon Festival!). It was such a pleasure capturing this moment for these two. Video coming soon!
Happy 1 Month Anniversary to Jacy and Josh! We seriously had such a good time at this wedding! Not only are Jacy, Josh, their family, and friends so much fun, but we felt like we really knew Jacy and Josh going into the wedding because we had filmed an 'our story' for their rehearsal dinner and seen them dancing up a storm at other weddings we filmed.
We went out on a limb on this one and used the letters they wrote to each other, even though we had filmed them reading those letters just to put on their personal Blu-ray/DVD (and not for public sharing). The thing was, these letters were just soooooo good. We sent the draft to Jacy and Josh, and they approved!
Jacy and Josh, thank you again for choosing us to be a part of this journey with you. We enjoyed every party of it, right down to the limey. (Tastes like college :-) )

Back in Stillwater and it feels soooo good! We had a blast at this one, and it was great to be back around our old stomp'n grounds. Thank you to Meggan of Truly You Photography for recommending us! We always have such a blast spending the day with Meggan and Jenna, and this day was no exception. Not to mention Kylie and Colin were so laid back and fun!
I particularly love the moment when her bridesmaids see her dress. And, the dancing! Oh the dancing! No one two-steps like those AGRs!
Ah, Spring! Is there any better time for family photos?!?? I say 'no.' I so enjoyed spending time with this sweet family. Liam is adorable! There was a campfire with a few remaining glowing embers, and Liam LOVED the smell! He kept sniffing the air! Carlton family, thank you for allowing me to capture a bit of your family life at this stage. It's a good stage. :-)
These two crazy fun peeps got married last night! We had SOOOOOOOO much fun at this wedding, shooting with the oh-so-fun Randy Coleman and drinking limes. #tasteslikecollege I cannot wait to get started culling this footage. We got so much good stuff!
Jacy and Josh got our platinum package, which includes an 'our story.' We really love doing these 'our story' films because it provides us the opportunity to really get to know the couple before their wedding day. And, these two were just ADORABLE. Congrats, you two!
***Engagement photos in this video were taken by the wonderful Randy Coleman.****
Oh, man! It was soooo much fun (and a tiny bit terrifying) to capture this special moment in Robert and Paige's life! Terrifying because you don't want to mess up!!! And, I have to say, (phew) these photos turned out great! I mean, how could they not?!?? Just look at how cute and in love these two are!
Robert worked some magic to get the key to the top of the midtown plaza building! And (so genius) had all their friends across the way on the rooftop bar, BosoNova! Anyway, congrats to these two and happy wedding planning!
Seize the 'good stuff,'

Did you know Carpe Diem films proposals?!?? Well, we do! And, it is sooooo much fun! I love the planning, the surprise. The letter from Aaron to Elie's father, well....it will choke anyone up. We are so excited to be a part of this fun, adorable couple's upcoming nuptials in Dallas! And, it's right around the corner. So, in honor of all those Valentines proposals and all the love in the air this weekend... enjoy. - Lauren
