Lauren and Preston made my job easy!  They had lots of great ideas!  I love coming up with locations and ideas for a shoot, but it is 100x more fun if a couple is involved in the planning like these two were.   Check out a few on my favorites!

We started things off at The Madison.

Jeff- the owner- knows Lauren and Preston and he let us have some fun inside.
It’s always funny to be inside a place where you usually only would see at night. Things look different in daylight- it was totally like we were the cool kids who got let back-stage!

Mandy + Allan – austin engagement photography

Mandy and Allan are Mr. and Mrs. and I have so many of their photos to show you!     We got Mandy’s bridals…their wedding…
But let’s start things off with the engagements!
First off- I love it when couples wear colors to engagement shoots!  Yeay for Mandy and Allan for great outfits!
I feel like engagements really set the tone for photographer/bride+groom relationship.  It’s like if you have fun at the engagement shoot- the rest is going to be great too!

I can certainly say that I had fun at this shoot.  This sweet couple surprised me with how much fun they had, the ideas that they had and how open minded they were to my ideas.  I LOOOVE that!

Just wait until you get to see Mandy’s bridals!  The above sentence rang true for that day too!

Mandy and Allan love wine and wine bars.  They wanted their engagement photos to reflect that.

Brittany + Tony | South Congress engagement photography

Ok- please take a minute and have a look at the colors in these photos!  Brittany and Tony did such a amazing job when picking out what to wear to the shoot!  I was trilled when I saw them walking towards me!

Brittany is from Austin while Tony is from San Antonio, so when Britt saw the TX map on the ground she was like- can we do something with that?
I have to say that this “we’re on the ground” shot is the first one I have shot with a real purpose!  I mean, I think that’s a cute pose but it’s so cool to actually be able give it such a importance.
Here are a few of my favorite from the shoot- thank you guys for a fun afternoon!  : )

So cute!  And FYI- I set up the wind so it would blow Brittany’s hair just the way I wanted it!

Cool tree!  I love this hill!

Favorite shot from the shoot!
