Firefighter Engagements Dallas - Jim Rode Dallas Weddings

So I'm sitting with Vanessa and Cory having coffee and a danish, wearing green because it's St. Patrick's Day, and I realize that Cory's last name is Irish. I asked about Vanessa's name...Irish. Wow, I'm shooting their engagement on St. Patrick's Day? How cool is that?

We had a great time. Went all over the place (why else would I call engagements "safaris"!) and ended with dynamite images! Here are a few to check out.
Cory is a firefighter. Yeah! Need I say more? Every firefighter can be a hero many times over -even if it's just part of the job. Vanessa is beautiful -and in radio. They are a great couple and I can't wait to do their wedding on May 29 at Le Beaux Chateau.

Very long day for me. Going backwards...seeing my mother who is having a little physical rehab. Nice to see her, she appreciates the visit too. Sylvia and I were in east Dallas...and that means Highland Park cafeteria. Man, eat there and be stunned. It is still a $50 dollar lunch for only $18 (for the two of us). Jaw stomping good food.

The lions share of the day started early. A negotiated traffic maze through Big D into little Mexico. Breakfast at a favorite place with Kara and Eric...then off for an engagement safari that lasted till one. Just in time for them to fly.  Kara and Eric are being married at the Northeast Wedding Chapel.

PS Look at that great image of Erik and St. Michael!
