Austin Wedding Photographer | Jan & Dave at The Four Seasons

Time to Blog. Let’s go!

Jan and Dave are two of the coolest and most fun people I have ever met. They travel, they golf, they know how to have a good time and so do their friends. The dancing and fun at this wedding was unbelievable. The happiness of this couple and all of their loved ones was also tangible. So many people were SO excited for this wedding and it showed. I was so thrilled to be a part of it.

They spent their day at the always amazing Four Seasons Austin in the middle of our scorchy, hot summer. One of my favorite things about the Four Seasons is the lawn always feels about 10 degrees cooler than the outside air. I don’t know how they manage that, but it’s kind of magic.

The reception was a giant, beautiful party! I went overboard with decor shots below, because, it was kind of flawless. Jan and Dave have amazing taste and when you combine that with the talents of Becky Brock of BZ Events, you get something incredible, as you will see. Their friends also secretly rehearsed a flash mob dance that they surprised the couple with after they had finished their first dance. Too fun!

I also have to thank the always fun James Dvorscak for shooting this wedding with me. He’s such a delight.

Jan and Dave, thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of your wedding! You guys rock!

Austin Wedding Photographer | Emily and Trey

More engagement photos – MORE!!!!

Emily and Trey  – there are many reasons I really, REALLY like them. They are another in a long line of amazingly cool 2011 clients. They were so sweet about little S. Emily has AMAZING taste in shoes. They both have the most incredible heads of hair. They love to talk about restaurants and food (I was so hungry by the time our session was over!) Emily and I bonded over the bad cup of coffee I got at a very prominent downtown coffee shop. They were so fun and positive about every idea I had and they also had some fun ideas of their own.  They are just the coolest, most laid back, happy couple.

We were all over Austin on a Saturday morning and I couldn’t be happier with the result of our work!

Can. Not. Wait for the wedding in May!

Thank you Becky Brock at BZ Events for bringing us together.

Detail of the Week: Fun and Games

It’s Detail of the Week time!!

Chelsea and Jacob’s spring wedding was all about BIG fun! Big guest list, big wedding party, big time dancing, big  Aggie celebration.

To keep the guys occupied and relaxed before the wedding, they broke out a game of Washers. Now, I don’t necessarily think this is a great option for every wedding venue. The Driskill would probably frown on it. However, for a beautiful Hill Country venue like Vista West Ranch, it was perfect. They guys had a blast, as did some of the earlier arriving guests.

Fun=Good.

Saturday Sweetness: Not So Basic Black Album

If you’ve been by the studio and looked at my sample albums, you know I’m a big fan of showing you what’s possible in album design. Pink! Purple! Yellow! Silver! Zebra! I have all of the colors of the rainbow and then some. However, while you have pretty much any option you want, there is someting to be said for timeless, classic choices.

The lovely Leslie and Ryan picked up their album this week and I wanted to show you that the basic black album got an upgrade. It is so pretty. Gorgeous printing and modern binding – sharp, square pages. Yum! It’s completely archival too. It’ll outlast all of us.

Emerge Contest: Austin Wedding Photographer

A few months ago, I entered a super fun contest called ‘Emerge’. It’s different than ones I’ve entered in the past as you were required to enter 10 images from the same wedding in each category rather than a single image. The point was to craft a story with your entry.

I found that intriguing because that’s what I strive for when I’m shooting a wedding. I’m certainly not a strict photojournalist – I love fun portraits and amazing shoe shots and cool ring photos. However, preserving the story of one of the most important days in a couple’s life is  something that is very dear to me.

So anyway, long story short, I won ‘Honorable Mention’ in the ‘Venue’ category. I didn’t take the Grand Prize, but I’ll take 4th. I’m pretty proud of fourth.

I chose Amanda and Timur’s purple Laguna Gloria Wedding as my entry for this category. This was a gorgeous wedding made so beautiful with Amanda’s vision and the awesome planning and execution of a great team of vendors including Prive Floral and Becky Brock with BZ Events. Plus, Laguna Gloria was a natural choice for a ‘venue’ category’.

Here are the images.
