Audrey & Christopher are married! I couldn’t wait for this wedding after photographing Christopher’s proposal, their engagement photos, and Audrey’s bridals. They were married at Magnolia Bells, outside of Houston. Coming from Austin, Magnolia Bells was such a nice change of pace. The entire property sits in a forest of tall pine trees. Wooden signs lead you through a maze of paths, weaving through the trees. It almost felt like a national park or a summer camp, which was so fun! Peep the foresty elements throughout their photos, like the pine cones in their details. The chapel is my f ..read more

Kelsea & Jose’s Spring wedding at Chapel Dulcinea needs a spot on the blog. Now that I’m on maternity leave, I’m catching up on blogging photos from the first half of the year, and there’s SO MUCH to go through. But am I really on maternity leave if I’m blogging for hours every day? Whatever, it’s fun. The gorgeous flowers + Jose’s maroon suit and floral tie brought so much style to their wedding. Kelsea was also a stunning bride, and her dress was perfect for a Spring wedding. Kelsea & Jose first met at a pickup soccer game. Two months later, they saw each other again at a mutual fr ..read more

Meet Solange! She’s graduating from high school this semester, and we took her senior photos at one of my favorite locations. It happened to be the peak of wildflower season, and we were surprised by the variety of amazing flowers! It was super hot and humid, but that actually created a cool hazy look over the river, which we loved! She also brought her adorable dog, who ran around and splashed in the water throughout the session. Congrats, Solange ..read more

Ciara & Carl are married! It was raining, or at least misting, the entire day. Actually, it rained for days on either side of their wedding too. Despite rain falling while taking all of these photos, Ciara & Carl were such great sports about it. Yes, their hair was wet. Ciara’s dress train was soaked and heavy, but she never complained, and we all made the best of it. Even on a hot and rainy day, Camp Lucy is beautiful! We took advantage of the gorgeous pavilion near the chapel. It was the perfect spot for their ceremony. This was a micro wedding with about 20 guests. They wanted to f ..read more

How in the world have I not shared Alicia & Ethan’s engagement photos yet?? That’s a testament to how insanely busy my Spring was. But IT’S TIME. Sekrit Theater + South Congress… What a great combo. They brought their adorable pug (and their pug wrangle/sister), which made their photos even more fun. I’m also obsessed with both of their outfits, especially Alicia’s white heels with a bow in the back ..read more

Veronica & Ben are married! Their wedding was intimate, calm, and beautiful, with about 40 guests. The stunning Shiraz Garden was the perfect venue for them. It’s such a unique property and the perfect setting for this nature loving couple. One of my favorite moments was Veronica’s first look with her dad. I don’t think I’ve ever seen such an emotional father first look. Another standout moment was during the ceremony, and it included an old Adidas shoe box. Here’s the story… When they first started dating, Ben gave Veronica a gift inside a shoe box he had lying around. He jokingly told h ..read more

Faith & Jared were married at a beautiful riverside house in Seguin. Faith wrote this to me in one of our first emails: “I love love love the idea of intimacy and a small ceremony. I am only inviting close family and a few friends. As for the reception, I want it to be very casual, fun, and low low stress.” Mirco weddings (not my favorite term, but you know what I mean) are always some of my personal favorites. I always support focussing on your favorite people, crafting your own unique timeline, and choosing a comfortable location. And… having a small wedding doesn’t mean you need to sacr ..read more

We just wrapped up my Spring 2024 Mini-Sessions! It was so fun to work with many of my past wedding couples, families who’ve been booking mini-sessions for years, and getting meet new families too. I’ve been photographing What’s a mini-session? Mini-Sessions are 20 minutes long and your chance to easily take family, anniversary, senior, headshot, or maternity photos. They’re easy to schedule, don’t take too much planning, and they’re AMAZING for kids with short attention spans! This season, we went to 4 of my favorite locations, including Mount Bonnell. This overlook is one of the most sc ..read more

This was the day we’ve all been waiting since Katie & Molly’s (surprise) double proposal in 2022. They even used their proposal photos to *WIN* Wed Society Austin’s ‘Looks of Love’ contest last year! I’ve loved working with them over the past couple years. They were married at Chateau Bellevue in downtown Austin. The venue is a gorgeous, 150 year-old mansion built in a French Romanesque style. It’s totally unique, and full of so much history. Their wedding was such a perfect celebration of their relationship. From the mirrorball table assignments to the colorful spring florals, it was so ..read more

Meet Avery! She’s a high school senior graduating this Spring. She loves creating art, going to concerts, and going shopping with her friends. She contacted us a few months ago with her heart set on The Sekrit Theater as the location for her session. This greenhouse is beautiful at the start of Spring. The vines and trees had started to bloom.  I loved her black and white outfit that paired perfectly with the vintage checkerboard floor. Playlist for this session: Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo, and Gracie Abrams ..read more
