Addie | Laguna Gloria bridal photography, Austin

August 21, 2010 – 11:30 pm

Ah- Addie! Where do I start to tell you how amazing it’s been to work with her? She is beautiful inside and out! The girl can’t help being super nice and have a smiling face! I met Addie and John the first time when we got together to do their engagements and it was just perfect right from the start. I had so much fun taking photos of them- not only because they are totally smoking hot but because they are so sweet and perfect together! I adore these two!

Addie and John got married in Fredericksburg back in May and I can’t wait to show you some photos…but as usual, I have to show you the bridals first! I love the vintage feel of Addie’s gown and earrings- so pretty and so perfectly her! I had so much fun shooting this session because Addie was smiling the whole time and her smile is very contagious! : )

This first shot (the close up of Addie) is my absolute favorite photo from our session!

I love over-grown fields! It’s just yummy!

There is that smile! Addie’s got it!!

Thank you Addie for a great session! : )

Lauren | austin bridal photography at Luster Pearl

August 21, 2010 – 10:27 pm

First of all let me explain why my blog has been so sloooow lately!
I have had a very busy Spring and Summer- for which I am super thankful. This also means that I have A LOT of photos to show you! So hang in there- and watch for new posts coming very soon!

Well- I am starting things off with a bang!
Meet the lovely Lauren- who is now married to an awesome guy named Preston! We had a blast at their wedding and I can’t wait to show you those photos. But first things first- scroll down and check out a few of my favorite photos from Lauren’s bridal session at Luster Pearl. LOVE it! Also check out her beautiful bouquet, made by Petal Pushers.

I love Lauren’s style! And- she picked a wedding gown with pockets! You don’t understand…pockets!!! I love dresses with pockets!

So pretty! I’m so lucky to be able to photograph such beautiful brides! : )

Lauren and Preston love Luster Pearl! That’s the reason Lauren wanted to do her bridals there and surprise him. She also surprised him in a major way at their wedding reception- I have not seen a happier guy ever! Sorry to be a tease- I’ll show you those pics real soon!

Playing with light is fun!

Emily | Villa Antonia bridal photography

June 13, 2010 – 11:14 pm

Emily is a married woman now so I can post these photos! Emily and David (check out their fun engagement session here) got married at Villa Antonia so we had the opportunity to shoot Emily’s bridals there too!

What a cool place- and what a cool bride! You are alright in my book if you bring candy to your bridal session! haha!

Check out a few of my favs! Thanks Emily for a great session! : )

Emily got the best laugh!

We had a beautiful overcast day- I love a nice even light for shoots that are in the middle of the day!

And here is the candy- peanut m&m to be exact! I love the color!

Woohoo!

Look at those pretty flowers! Ladies- you don’t need to have a duplicate of your wedding day bouquet for your bridal session. Just pick up some pretty flowers- they make a great prop and add color to your photo!

Can’t wait to show you the wedding photos!

Heather is now married to a cool guy named Josh! Check out their super fun engagements- which are some of my favorite engagement photos to date!

I can’t wait to show you their wedding- it was a crazy fun wedding, complete with a live performance by Manhands!

Jenny – Laguna Gloria bridal photography

September 27, 2009 – 9:36 am

Here is Jenny!
I met Jenny, her mom and one of her bridesmaid, Andrea, at Laguna Gloria. Laguna is such a cool place! I love shooting there!
Jenny was so happy and bubbly- shooting her bridals was so fun! This was my first shoot after my maternity leave and I was so excited to get to shoot without a big belly in the way! Somehow it was a lot easier to move around!
Jenny made it even more fun as she joked the whole time we were shooting! Her pretty gown was the cherry on top!

Here are a few of the ones I like!

Ryan- Perry Mansion austin bridal photography

September 22, 2009 – 12:12 am

Ryan is now a Mrs!
Ryan and Griff got married a couple of weeks ago and I really really enjoyed the wedding! I mean it was all kinds of fabulous and I just can’t wait to show you some pics!
But, I am excited to show off Ryan’s bridal photos. We shot at the lovely Perry Mansion. Ryan is totally stunning, which made things even more awesome! Check out the beautiful shoes and the birdcage veil…love it!

The silhouette of Ryan’s dress was perfect!

Working it out! haha!

Ok- so the bouquet was so pretty but oh so heavy…I think Ryan’s hand was cramping after a while!

Oh the shoes!

Ryan picked this for her bridal shot at the reception. I love it when brides pick a non-traditional shot- it just makes my day!

And- one more pair of cute shoes!

Thanks Ryan for a great session! : )

Brittany- Buda bridal photography

August 25, 2009 – 4:34 pm

The blog has been dominate by photos of our little Sofie lately. Now that I am back to work, I want to start showing off all the fabulous spring weddings and portraits.
To start things- meet Brittany!

I love Brittany! We met in Buda and explored the funky/old fashioned/cool streets of old downtown. What a great place to shoot! Brittany got married back in July just a few days after Sofie was born so I did not get to shoot the wedding! : ( bummer! But so happy I got to steal her for her bridals! Thanks girl for a great shoot!

britt1 Super cool red wall!

Laura | Vista West Ranch bridal photography}

May 3, 2009 – 4:58 pm

Laura is now a Mrs and on her way to her honeymoon!

She and Mark got married last night and had a great party at the Four Seasons. We had so much fun at the wedding and I can’t wait to start working on their photos.
Now that they are married, I get to show off a few from Laura’s bridal session. Does she not look amazing?

I shot this fun session at Vista West Ranch. What a cool place! If you’re looking for a laid back, beautiful setting for your wedding or a bridal session you really should check this place out!
Kudos to Petal Pushers for the awesome flowers and Amanda Pye for the great job on the makeup.

I just love Laura’s dress! It has this wrap that she had around her shoulders for the church and then the wrap goes around her waist to turn the dress into party mode!

That’s just cool! Love those boots!

This is how the back of Laura’s dress looked like once the warp was tied around her waist. So cute!

Hello blue eyes!

As the sun was setting, we found an awesome patch of dried grass and perfect light! Looooove it!

Laura ordered a canvas gallery wrap for her bridal photo. I am so excited that she did. The canvas gallery wrap turns your favourit photo to instant art! They are not only easy to display but the texture of canvas gives photos a little something extra. The fact that she picked out one of my ultimate favorite photos for her canvas, was just awesome! What can I say, the girl got good taste! hehe!

Check it out!

Thank you guys for a great evening- have fun on your honeymoon! : )

Chelsea and Matt got married in Houston last weekend and it was a great time! We had the best weather and even got a little bit of sunset for the photos after the ceremony. I can’t wait to show you photos from the wedding.

But, for now- I would like to show you some of Chelsea’s bridal photos. We shot these at the beautiful Allan House; here are a few of the ones I really like.
