WOW, what a great e-session today in 100+ heat wave!!! I guess when there's heat, it translates to hot photographs too! Many thanks to Magen and Chris for withstanding such heat, and for that matter, many thanks to Jenny and I, for doing the same!!!. M+C, I hope you guys enjoy these pictures, because you 2 look like rock stars!!! To be honest with you, this is probably one of my favorite engagement sessions thanks to you two! I know we had to reschedule your shoot due to bad weather.... But I think it was worth the wait! With all our love Jenny and Eddie

You both are truly amazing and we were so lucky to have found Jenny Martell Photography that one day at the Dallas Bridal Show. Thank you again for capturing the most amazing moment, we will have these photos forever and will always remember the wonderful couple who took them.

Cheyenne, you were a supper sport for your bridal session! You're mom, helped us tremendously in scouting for a supper cool country locations out in the middle of now-where. Not to mention she was a speed demon driving fast to get to the next location just for you! Your mom gets an A+ in my book. Now as far as me driving with her, I might have to think twice J/K.  For all your help Jenny and I really thank you mom!!! We just wanted to post a few sneak peaks for you since we think your session really stands out! Please stay tuned for your full post!

OMG, she is sooo beautiful. The sunflowers were a good pick too. Eddie, you and Jenny are the best. I want to thank you so much for the time you took with my pride and joy. She has always been a beautiful girl but these photos, WOW! Also for withstanding the terrible heat in the barn, climbing those mountainous stairs (whew!) and Jenny being a trooper even though she is 8 months pregnant! I know Chey will love these photos as well as the rest. Thank you again for coming this way and welcome to Ellis County and historic Waxahachie. My best to you both and I am looking forward to the wedding so we can play some. Oh, and by the way, I was actually driving slow so you guys could follow! Ask Chey.

LOL,

Mom aka Speed Racer

This post is a bit long, so we encourage you to put on some Robin Thick, cozy up to your loved one, and hopefully help us wish Kyle + Ashley a long future together!!!!!

Jenny and I wanted our readers, as well as Kyle + Ashley's extended family to have all the inside scoop on how this super cute couple met, and finally, all the details of how Kyle decided to get down on one knee and and ask Ashley for her hand in marriage. So, we asked her friends and family to give us the inside story:


 Ashley and Kyle first met through mutual friends at SMU.  She happened to be over at his townhouse one day while he was making himself breakfast (around noon - they were on college time).  He was training for Mr. SMU at the time, a body building competition, and wasn't wearing a shirt while he was whipping up his healthy concoction of yogurt and oats.   It only took ten minutes for them to be stuck on each other.  Even though they didn't see each other much for the next two years, when they final did bump into each other fate set in.   They both ended up at a mutual friends party one night.  Ashley showed up and said hi to everyone in the group but him, too shy to speak to let alone make eye contact with the guy, then she went and sat down in a chair as far away from him as possible. That wasn't going to stop Kyle though, a few minutes later he got up and pulled a chair over next to her. Ashley couldn't believe it. She thought her heart was going to jump right out of her chest.  They sat together and talked and goofed around for the rest of the evening. At the end of the night when she got up to leave he attempted to get her number many times, at first she denied him but his persistence paid off... its all history from there.  They finished out their last years of college - walking with each other to class each day and going out or studying at night.  Ashley watched Kyle graduate and start his career and a year later Kyle did the same with Ashley. From there life got even better, they started to travel when they could, taking many trips around the country and to find the best undiscovered beaches and even spent two weeks in Europe. On their two and a half year "anniversary," Kyle took Ashley back to her hometown of Park City, Utah and after a day of snowboarding he led her to the top of the mountain, got down on one knee, and proposed.   She said yes.
