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!

Angie + Jayme | hideout on the horseshoe wedding photography

I shot this awesome wedding back in November and have not had a chance to put it on the blog.  This one is for sure one of those weddings I love to blog about because the location, the details and the couple were just beautiful!

The wedding was at “Stay and Float” in New Braunfels.  So you want a wedding with amazing fall colors in central TX?  Well- I think November at this venue would do the trick!  I was so excited when we got there and I saw that the backdrop for the ceremony was so colorful.

Angie and Jayme are one of the most fun, laid-back and sweet couples I’ve ever met.  I had a blast shooting their engagement photos and I knew the wedding was going to rock…and it did!

Thanks guys for allowing us to capture your beautiful day!  Hugs! : )

Look at this amazing copper tub!  I want to go stay at this place just to use this tub!

The colors Angie picked went so well with the natural setting of the venue-beautiful!

We were trying to take some photos before the ceremony when one of the girls spotted Jayme walking up the path!  They had to hurry and hide the bride!

Nerves can play tricks on you when you’re getting married!  The ring ended up on Jayme’s right hand! I love this moment with Angie laughing!

Cool details!

Abbey + Travis [a preview to the real post!]

Look at this! Is this not the coolest spot for a wedding?   This is a photo from Abbey and Travis’ fab. wedding in D-town.

I’ll be posting more tomorrow!

Amy + Landry | Marble Falls wedding photography

The second post on my list of August weddings is Amy and Landry.

We drove to Marble Falls for the wedding. I really enjoy going outside of Austin or places I’ve never been to, for shoots.  It’s so fun to shoot in new locations.   I had met Amy and Landry once before when we all met to check out the church and reception site.  After that meeting I was so excited about the wedding.

The wedding day did not disappoint! Amy was totally smashing beautiful and Landry very handsome.  The reception site blew me away!  This family had spend countless hours making the decorations, center pieces and all the other details for the wedding.
I have so many favorites form this wedding I had a hard time picking photos to post!

Thank you everyone for including us in the celebration of your big day.  It was beautiful and we had a blast.

Cool dress moment!  The girls did such a good job of getting the dress on Amy and not messing up her hair.

This is one of my all time favorite mother/daughter shots ever.  It just makes me teary eyed looking at it.

Uh- I told you she was smashing beautiful!

Seriously- I seem to say this on every photo- but the close up shot of Amy below is my favourit bridal shots I have taken.  Hands down!

And the girls!

Then we drove to the reception site to get some shots of the guys.

Please- how cool is Landry?  love this shot!

These guys were so awesome to work with. They really took on what I suggested and I love the way their photo turned out.

Amy and Landry wanted to do a -I can’t see you but I want a moment with you- before the ceremony.  So sweet!

This is right after the ceremony.  That’s got to be the most wonderful hug.  He loves her so much and that’s so sweet.

Party time! A little song from Amy’s sorority sisters.

Amy wanted a sillouette shot. We set it up and they stepped outside for a few moments to get this shot. I love it when couples are as excited about the photos as we are.  : )

Janice + David | Creekside Pavillion wedding

So- I have been so so behind on my blog posts and today I decided I was going to just take some time and post all my August weddings.  I really enjoyed these weddings, so it’s about time I shared my take on these 3 very sweet and amazing weddings.

First up is Janice and David!

These two got married at the creek side pavilion and we had an unusually nice and cool day- for being August that is! The sunset ceremony was very sweet and the light totally awesome.   Once the party started, there were so many people on the dance floor jumping around, that I could swear the floor was shaking!

Thank you Janice and David for having me there on your special day. : )

This first one is one of my favorite prep photos ever!

We ran a little short on daylight after the ceremony so we got some night shots for Janice and David.

Janice- you have really pretty eyes! They’re so blue!

Let the party get started!

This was a near cake-in-the-face moment!

And then the tuxedo shirts came out! OMG! That was hilarious!

Ok- I love these two shots. This is towards the end of the night. Janice and David are having a romantic moment here- but he is wearing a tuxedo shirt! That’s so funny and just shows the goofy personality of these two!

Kelly + Erik | Austin club wedding photography

Being gone for a few weeks- one thing that I missed the most about my work was to update my blog. I just enjoy showing off all the beautiful people I get to work with!

So now it’s time to jazz it up! I have a new blog and it’s in desperate need of a few posts.
This wedding is from back in May but I remember it really well because this was one of the best receptions I have ever been to!
Kelly, Erik, all their friends and family sure know how to party!
Here are just a few from the wedding.
