Tate Financial Group’s 30th Anniversary Shindig
Last Thursday, I photographed an event for Bobby’s firm. His boss, Darrell Tate, has been in the financial industry for 30 years, and that is a reason to celebrate!
Darrell’s wife and daughter, Erica, spearheaded a group to plan this party, and I think it went beautifully. It was a warm atmosphere with comfort food and fun decor…you can’t ask for much more.
A special shout out goes to Emily Youngblood, the event planner for that evening, as well as Lite Dallas, Edwards Floral, and Gil’s Elegant Catering for their work in making the Cotton Mill shine!
Suzanne and Erica, Darrell’s daughters are the sweetest. This makes me wish I had a sister!
How gorgeous does Erica look? Smokin’! She works with Bobby and Darrell and is such a fun chick.
The details were so fun to shoot!
LOVE these lounge areas.
The moments were heartfelt, and there were several generations of McKinney’s leaders in attendance making them happen.
Darrell and “his bride”…
Millie made a card for Darrell and put it in his hand while he was talking to a VIP. She looks so proud. =)
They had a super cool hand rolled cigar station!
I have to end this post with bottoms up! What a great event!
That looks like a VERY fun party captures by a VERY fun photographer! Seriously, people in Texas really know how to do it up right. And I think you are such a fantastic party photographer! Love the details.
I love Emily Youngblood!! She went to school with me at Austin College. I’m so glad ya’ll connected. She’s great.
Kate, you always take photos of the most fabulous parties! Wonderful job! Looks like a great celebration!
Great shots - love the lighting in so many of them.
Great people and a wonderful celebration! Thanks for capturing everything and for supporting me from my very beginning in the biz!
