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 | Merrill and Blayne

Hooray! Merrill and Blayne!! These two are some of my favorites, both as individuals and as a couple. They were married at The Ladybird Johnson Wildflower Center in a romantic night-time ceremony.

I had an instant connection with Merrill when I met her. I’m so glad she and Blayne chose me to photograph their wedding because we spent several afternoons laughing and having fun during their planning. I’ve said many times that Merrill has the most infectious smile that I know and Blayne is sweet and tons of fun. He also busted out the dance moves at the reception, which I always appreciate.

Merrill and Blayne opted for a first look since their ceremony was at night. As usual, it was a great choice and the whole wedding party had tons of fun playing out in the fields. The ceremony was softly lit, meaningful and beautiful. The reception that followed was a huge celebration and even a blown fuse only stopped the party for a few minutes. Merrill left the reception in her Grandmother’s vintage fur which was to die.

Thanks so much to Merrill and Blayne and their families for having me along for such a fun year. Best of everything to you both.

Detail of the Week | An adorable gift and some bling

Merrill and Blayne’s Wildflower Center wedding is one in a loooong line of things on my ‘To Blog’ list, but as I was preparing their slideshow, I kept coming back to this adorbale picture drawn for them by their Flower Girl, Abby. I just thought it was the cutest and used it as a prop in one of the ring shots. Nice work Abby!!

And here is Miss Abby tearing it up on the dancefloor with several members of the wedding party. Nice!

Austin Wildflower Center Wedding | Erica and Chris

 Happy Monday!

I love the Wildflower Center in the spring! Really, I love it anytime, but it shines like a diamond in the spring and is an incredibly beautiful backdrop for a wedding.

Erica and Chris picked a surprisingly warm, but gorgeous day for their wedding. All day long, there were scattered thunderstorm warnings and Bethany from 36th Street Events and I were huddled around her phone looking at the radar. Despite rain all around us, there was not a drop during the ceremony and reception. We had a little bubble of clear sky around this event and I think the weather was a reflection of this couple; clear and calm and warm and sunny.

It has been a lovely process getting to know these two over the last year. They are in graduate school on College Station and this summer will graduate, start new (amazing, I’m sure) jobs and continue their life together. As I scrolled through the photos, I always noticed how ‘right’ these two seemed together. They fit together in that ‘of course’ kind of way and it makes me very happy.

Thank you so much for choosing me to work with you Chris and Erica! I have enjoyed every step.

Big thanks to Tali for second shooting and the impeccable work by Bethany and her team from 36th Street Events.

There will be an extended gallery on the Facebook page later today and the couple’s full wedding gallery can be seen here within 2 weeks.
