Austin Wedding Photographer | Gabby & Crayton at The Wildflower Center

With the current August heat, it’s hard to remember how beautiful the weather was this spring. Let’s look back at a delightful spring wedding! Gabby and Crayton are a ton of fun and I knew their wedding day would be filled with friendship and good times.

They had a wonderful day at one of my favorite venues, The Ladybird Johnson Wildflower Center. This venue is always lovely, but was even more dramatic than normal with the addition of a huge white tent over the courtyard. It went perfectly with the Calvin Klein inspired, minimalist white design the couple chose. The day was filled with a sweet ceremony that included ‘Tebowing’ and tears, cupcakes and crazy dancing under a perfect Austin spring night.

Congrats you two – nothing but the best to you!

Austin Wedding Photographer | Laurel & Jon at Vista West Ranch

It becomes apparent VERY quickly after you spend any time with Laurel and Jon that they have fairy tale love. The kind where little birds and hearts and ribbons follow them around. It really is something to be in the presence of that kind of emotion. I knew after shooting their engagement portraits that their wedding would be a special one.

They had an emotional and beautiful wedding at Vista West Ranch and every part of the day felt like them. It was an honor to be a part of it.

Thank you so much Laurel and Jon and I hope the next chapter in your lives is even more exciting and beautiful.

Austin Wedding Photographer | Laurel and Jon

These crisp sunny mornings do my little photographic heart good. This session is a great example of why I love winter morning light in Austin. It’s glowy and crisp and oh. so. beautiful.

Laurel and Jon were a pleasure to spend the morning with. They are both so funny, interesting and easy to be around. The way they interact with each other had me smiling like a fool while editing these photos. It is easy to see that this will be a great match. Also…how stylish are they? I gasped when they pulled up. Seriously – SO cute!

Thanks for getting up early with me you two and I can’t wait until April!

As per usual, there is an extended cut over at my Facebook page.

Just a quick reminder that the Vista West Ranch Open House is this Saturday!

I got the official flyer from the lovely Aimee of LizzeBelle Events who is coordinating the event and now I’m even more excited! This is a super group of vendors (and yes, I am a little biased as I’ll be there, but it really is a great group). I know you will love meeting all of them.

Come play!
