Gorgeous dress + gorgeous bride + me & my camera = awesome pictrues!
Maria wanted a rustic look to her bridals, so we started out by Wildseed farms (out by Fredericksburg) and made our way to Johnson city and happened to find an awesome red barn to match her red shoes…. we were lucky! I’m really loving these pictures, so enjoy!

One of my good friends just opened up a new wedding venue in Pflugerville, Texas. Pflugerville is located just minutes north of Austin, so it is a great alternative for wedding sites just outside the busy city. Chealse McMurtrie put together this event for all the vendors to show off their goods. All we needed were some willing participants to model for us. Well… turns out Chealse had some friends who happened to still have their wedding dresses from when they got married and Chealse’s daughter was a perfect flower girl. We had a great time photographing everyone at the event and I can’t wait to shoot my first wedding there in the near future.
Lecia with Beauty on the Go did the hair and make-up. Flower Child Design provided the lovely floral arrangements, and Enchanted Antique Limo’s provided the swanky ride for the shoot and Royal Fig Catered the event. Big thanks to Chealse at McMurtrie Farms for letting use showcase your fabulous venue. The Grand Opening will take place on September 27th, 2009. Hope to see you there!
Thank you for stopping by, feel free to leave a comment!

||Lyanna & Whet were totally down for anything and I had such a good time shooting them around the Capitol area on Friday. I guess I’m not in much of a writing mood tonight but I may come back to edit the post to explain how awesome of a couple they really were… but here are some of my faves!
I love dark alley ways
and there is something about parking garages I really like too.
I feel like I should explain this one a little bit…. as we were walking down the allies taking pictures a group of people hanging out in all black with purple duct tape around there shoes. We came back to this spot later hoping that they had moved, but hadn’t, so I thought ‘whatever lets work around them’… While I was shooting, this nice gentleman (by the name of Adam I believe) asked if I would like him to do a back flip in my photo… and here we have it. They were putting on a show of acrobats of some sort in a bar connected to the alley. How cool?

||Can I just say that I get some of the best clients ever?
A little mix from the north and the south, Martha’s family is from Mexico while Jeff’s family is Canadian, and they were uber (yes I said uber) sweet. They live in San Antonio so we met in the middle of Austin and San Antonio- New Braunfels/Gruene… I asked them to meet me at the Gristmill without knowing that that’s where they had their first date. It was another hot summer day but they posed without showing it, we had fun
and I’m looking forward to their wedding November 7th!
