Engagement | Jill and Matt

Hey remember how it didn’t rain allllll summer and then we had that one weekend where it poured?

Well that was the day that the darling Jill and Matt had scheduled their engagement session. They came in from out of town too. Boo weather! We tried our best, but didn’t quite get what we wanted so we rescheduled for a day that turned out to be extra beautiful.

The bonus side of our reschedule was that I got to spend a little extra time with these two. I am very much looking forward to their September wedding!

Jordan + Jolie: Hamilton 12 Wedding Photography

There were very few people that were sad to see the drought end on September 12, 2009. Those people included everyone involved with Jolie and Jordan’s Hamilton Twelve wedding. But despite the rain, they had a lovely, chic and completely romantic wedding day filled with lots of love and beautiful details. It’s never great to have to go to Plan B when the weather doesn’t cooperate, but sometimes the rain adds a moody, dramatic quality to your wedding day that you just can’t get with blazing sun. I loved it. Jolie and Jordan also handled the rain with grace – they were great sports and even ventured out into the drizzle with me for their portraits.

I enjoyed Jolie and Jordan’s enthusiasm for each other and their wedding so much. They were just happy to be with each other – it certainly didn’t matter what the weather was.

There was a great team of vendors working this wedding including Becky Brock and Lorena Molina, who coordinated the day beautifully. I also had my Tali with me. Other vendors are listed at the end.

Thanks so much you two! I hope that Italy was wonderful!!!!!

The details were amazing. The beautiful swirl pattern was carried throughout the wedding (even on the wine bottles!) and I just adored that Paloma’s Nest bowl.

Jordan and Jolie are a Longhorn and Aggie, respectively (just like my husband and I!). The Longhorn cake was allowed as long as Jolie got to ‘Saw Varsity’s Horns off’ (SHORT! WHOOP! – Sorry, that’s a habit)

OK, I would like to launch a campaign to bring back the traveling outfit!! Look how cute these two are in their ‘Get-a-way Outfits’! Plus, as Jolie told me, it was an excuse for more shoe shopping.
