Ok…people, this is big time. BIG. The lovely Kathryn over at Snippet & Ink just gave Kristi Wright Photography the most amazing mention. For somebody just getting their feet wet in the wedding photog world…this is unbelievable. I’m totally blown away. Seriously, how did she even know about me? Woo freaking Hoo!! Thank you so much, S&I!! Please be sure to drop by her blog and say hello.

I’m thrilled to say that the Austin Wedding Blog has featured Lauren + Alexander’s Austin summer wedding on their web site. Woo hoo!! Such a great honor. Thank you, Rachel + Rudy!! Your support for local Austin wedding vendors is greatly appreciated.

Lauren + Alexander were married on June 6, 2009, in their own backyard and were surrounding by their closest friends and family. Their wedding was sweet and comfy like a warm blanket. They did things their own way in true DIY style. I’m pretty sure everyone had a super rad time. These two guys are always going to have a special place in my heart. Not only do we religiously tailgate every Texas football game together but they allowed me to be a part of one of the most special days of their lives…as their wedding photographer. To put their trust in me, a girl who’d never shot a wedding before (even I thought they were Crazy), was a huge effort of faith on their part. It could have been horrible…friendship-ending, terrifying stuff…but instead it was an exhilarating day with friends. And since they both still speak to me…without further adieu…here’s the day Lauren + Alexander said “I do”.

Check out the awesome sign Lauren + Alexander made themselves. So cute!

I think Lauren looks absolutely stunning in this photo! One of my all time favs.

This girl’s shoes were To Die For!

Lauren + Alexander opted to do their portraits before the ceremony. It was so nice and calm – just the three of us. Cue the aww. I highly recommend it!

Ok, so at this point Lauren let EVERYONE know that someone forgot to give her her bouquet. I nearly died and would have ran inside to grab it myself if I hadn’t been holding a camera. She was a great sport about it and really loosened the ceremony up. That’s Alexander’s sister, Stephanie, cracking up. This photo makes me grin every time I see it.

Lauren + Alexander danced their first dance to La Vie en Rose, sung brilliantly by Julia Parmenter of Bernson and Bayless. These guys were fabulous!!!

I caught Lance stealing a kiss from his soon to be bride, Sherra. Such a beautiful moment between them!

You know it’s going to be a good party when Elvis makes an appearance! Lauren + Alexander wanted to do a photobooth and I am so glad they did because it turned out to be crazy fun. Alexander’s sister, Stephanie, brought some amazing props. It was a huge hit!

I must give major props to my husband, who was my second shooter during the ceremony, for taking this photo of all us girls. I made it in one! Somehow I ended up with a tiara on my head.

Thanks, Bee!!

Congratulations you guys! I wish you love and a lifetime of happiness.
