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!
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!
Becky & Steven were such a sweet couple and very easy to shoot. Steven had some good ideas for photos and Becky had an awesome smile- I couldn’t ask for more :)
We just walked around the Palmer event center/long center/auditorium shores area, one of my favorite places to shoot. Can’t wait for the wedding on September 13th!
I have to give credit to Steven because this one was his idea :)
As I mentioned in the previous post, Ben & I couldn’t resist shooting a session on the beach. So…I must explain how Ben & I found such an model. Our neighbors here in Bucerias from Canada took us out to play pool one night, and as we were discussing that we needed to find a model, Sandi (being very outgoing) asked if there was anyone there that we would be interested in shooting… and that’s how we found Renata. Her boyfriend John was from Texas as well so we got along quite well :) – did I mention Renata is from Lithuania? (which I find very awesome!).
John took us to an awesome area he knew of in Puerto Vallarta, the lighting worked out perfectly and after having dinner on the beach we went out one more time to get some sunset shots. It’s harder to shoot on the beach than I thought honestly- getting from rock to rock through the water with a camera is quite difficult. We were all very sandy, salty, and sweaty after wards. I would totally do it again though of course :)
I had to post the one on the right because it is a good example of how the shoot went down!
Ben is always so good about taking pictures of me at work, I always forget to take pics of him :/
All of us, minus John, after the shoot!
For more photos go to Ben’s site!
I am currently in Mexico with my wonderful boyfriend and we could not resist but to get someone to model for us on the beautiful Bucerias beach in a wedding dress. So we met a friend of a friend (of a friend, of a friend), Renata, that looked like she would fit the dress we had perfectly (yes we brought a wedding dress to Mexico) and she really did. More to come of course as soon as I get back to my home computer!
