Women’s Federation Mansion Wedding | Kristin + Nik

This was a fun one.

When I was sorting through the photos from this wedding, the thing that jumped out at me was the sheer joy and delight that both Kristin and Nik had on their faces the entire day. Pretty much all brides and grooms are happy, but there was a radiance about these two that had me smiling fondly behind my lens all day.

The ceremony took place at Redeemer Lutheran Church followed by a purple inspired reception at the Women’s Federation Mansion. Dancing, thoughtful toasts, candy and late night donuts filled the late night hours.

Kristin and Nik are currently in Maui for their honeymoon so they left to a shower of leis, which made for amazing photos and lots of laughing.

Big thanks to Tali as usual for second shooting and also to Barbara Hearne and her team at Barbara’s Brides for keeping the day flowing beautifully.

Thank you Kristin and Nik for allowing me to be a part of your lives these past months. I have loved getting to know you both and wish you so much happiness.

Also, I am starting something new. When I sort through the photos to choose the blog images, I tend to choose waaaay too many to fit in a blog post. So starting now, I’m going to be posting an extended gallery on the Facebook page. Feel free to tag away, leave comments for Kristin and Nik and share it.

Kristin + Nik: Austin Engagement Photographer

When you see a certain flower that is in this part of Texas for a very specific time period, you will know how behind I am in blogging.

My slow blogging does not mean I love these two any less though. Kristin and Nik and I had a great time during their engagement session. We battled traffic on South Congress during first Thursday, wind, the threat of rain – pretty much a full plate of drama as far as shoots go.  It didn’t matter how weird the circumstance, though, these two were calm and trusted in me.  They are so lovely together. I think you’ll agree.

I can’t wait for your fall wedding! Thanks to Barbara of Barbara’s Brides for bringing us together. (Aren’t we all dreaming of fall this time of year?)
