I can’t wait to share the rest of this engagement session! Kathryn + Darren are so beautiful together. Here is a little peek at their engagement session. Please check back next week for the rest!

As a wedding photographer, it’s not that often that we get to work with clients multiple times – at least not until they start having babies! So when Katie first asked to meet with me about her wedding, I was so excited! Katie is a past portrait session client and when she told me she couldn’t imagine anyone else photographing her wedding day, I did a little happy dance!  We met at the cutest bar near the University campus to start their engagement session. It was a great chance to get to know Jack a bit, relax + have fun. Katie + Jack met at UT so we spent part of their session on campus. I loved hearing the story about how they met while working as lab partners. How cute are they? Here are a few of my favorites from their session.

Looking back over Jenny + Brett’s wedding photos makes me so thankful that I have a job that I love + clients I love even more! Brett + Jenny live in Corpus Christi, where Brett is a pilot, had their wedding at The Wild Onion Ranch, a truly stunning wedding venue just outside of Austin. Everything was so elegant! I loved Jenny’s Claire Pettibone dress! Jenny + Brett decided to do a ‘first look’ before their ceremony -so many sweet moments! And boy do these guys really know how to throw a party!! They surprised everyone (including me) by showing off some serious dance moves. What started out looking like two kids at a jr high prom dancing to the Titanic theme song quickly knocked everyones socks off with an abrupt stop to the music + going into a little swing dance number. They secretly took dance lessons before the wedding to surprise their friends + family. It was amazing!!! The night ended with a New Orleans ’second line’ style exit lead by the Matchmaker band (you should book them for your wedding – the are all sorts of awesome)!!
