austin, texas engagement session: vershanna + jason!

vershanna is an old college friend and i was so excited when she asked if i'd shoot her engagement session. these two against the landscapes at pedernales falls was a dream to photograph! we hiked and explored and took some pretty pictures along the way. congrats you guys, you both deserve this love.

austin, texas wedding photographer: single frame- cori + bobby's lady bird johnson wildflower center ceremony

she's hitched and pumped about it!! (or maybe she's just laughing at the 34 week preg-o running after her?!) either way i love capturing these moments immediately after the ceremony. it's just genuine excitement and raw wedded bliss.

austin, tx wedding photographer: sally + adam

i just love these two and if we lived in the same city, i'd invite myself to sally's for girl scout cookie protein shakes and bad tv. 

adam and sally were so much fun to photograph and watch interact. simply, you can tell they just get each other and they're going to laugh together for a lifetime. here are some of my favorites from their church wedding and reception at palm door.
