It’s so hard to believe that in just a couple of days it will be 2012. This year has gone by in a whirlwind of weddings, engagements and lifestyle sessions with some of the best clients anyone could hope for. 2011 even took me to Hawaii for my first destination wedding! I wanted to share some of my favorite images from the past year (by no means all of them – there could really be another post but one must learn the art of the edit!) so here you go…I hope you enjoy them. To my clients, friends and family who have given me so much support and many things to be thankful for…I thank, you. Happy New Year!!

Susan + Tim had a destination wedding in Gruene, Texas. For those of you aren’t familiar with the area it’s pronounced green like the color. The ladies got ready at Life is Gruene, a beautiful little river side B&B, while the ceremony + reception took place on the adjoining property, the Gruene River Guesthouse. Guess what happens when you get married on the Guadalupe River in the middle of Summer? You get excited tubers cheering on your nuptials! It certainly made the wedding festive! Here are a few of my favorites from the day.

Wedding Ceremony + Reception: Gruene River Guest House
Bride’s Getting Ready location: Life is Gruene B&B
Wedding Coordination: Paisley Day Events, April Orr
Make Up: Maris Calderon
Cup Cakes: Gruene Flour
Flowers: Comal Flower Shop

I am currently out of the office for a destination wedding in Kauai, Hawaii! All emails and phone calls will be responded to as soon as I return. Here is a photo of where I’m headed! I can’t wait to photograph Sam + Daniel’s wedding. Since there is a forecast of rain, maybe I’ll capture an image like this one…trying to stay positive about the weather. Aloha!
